Another Day Alive

Memories from My Life. I believe in the freedom of our founders. I believe in The United States of America. I AM AN AMERICAN!!!!

Hello, too early for anything else but COFFEE

Greetings
Just thinking about trying to survive. I make a very good paycheck, but; why do I still feel that the economy is not agreeing with my game plan?
I know that everything is going up, but still we have to make some adjustments of where we are using our money.
We are not hurting for money, but we are not happy the way things are going.
I know that the economy sucks right now and our president still thinks that we are doing fine, but as I see all around my little town here, a lot of houses are NOT being bought, It took almost 6 months to buy the house across the street; and this is a military town where the housing market and the PCS (Permanent Change of Station) come hand in hand. That means that in the late summer and early winter there is a mass migration of soldiers/ Marines and sailors moving from base to base or post to post. Every year 10% to 15% of service members change posts because that is the way the services do business.

I hope that I can get to save money this year, but it looks like it is going to be hard.

I am also just posting some cute pics that I found surfing the net at this early mornings.

The world is not going to end.... YET!!!!

Well, I have been working so hard that I have had no free time at all in the last few months.

Working with Arabs and Afghans is an art that not all can master. Some of them are great some of them are just plain stupid.... it sounds like any of us, so I guess all of us are just like all of them......

Today an Afghan linguist told me that my company is not treating him right because when he got to the Atlanta Airport he was told to wait three hours outside in the rain for transportation; that transportation is NOT provided by my company and it is just a shuttle service from the Atlanta to Columbus, GA. He said that somebody should have been waiting there for him to carry the bags and tell him what to do. YES, readers, this guy is a total idiot!!!!
He told me that I explain things too many times to the linguist and he should be let go from the group as soon as tell them the instructions once for him and repeat the instructions again for the rest of the group.

A few months ago I had an Afghan woman that told me that the reason her country was such a shit was because most of the Afghan man expect to be served!!!! AT ALL TIMES by everybody, because that is what the Qoran says. This fucking Idiot is the poster child for that statement. I love my job because only 5% of linguists are like that.

HAVE A GREAT DAY.

BTW the title for today has nothing to do with what I wrote, I just forgot what I was going to write.
