So, now, I hope you have a little more appreciation for those of us who have to suffer through 80 - 85 degree weather all year round.... ;)

I wasn't all that upset when the temperature was 85 in my office. It was when it crossed that magical 90 mark, and I was sweating my ass off while just sitting there that I decided to leave.

I am sick and tired of losing so much at cards. How the hell did that happen?
 
It seems that you have finally met the military service cock-up department that exists in every military support unit and has done since the time of the Roman legionary.

I'm surprised that you have been lucky enough to avoid them before now.

My father was commissioned into the Royal Navy in 1945 to join Operation Olympic - the final attack on the Japanese main islands. He was told to have his uniform made as quickly as possible because he would be leaving within hours of the paperwork being finished. He had to use almost all his clothing coupons and pay high rates for speedy tailoring.

The paperwork was cancelled because of the Japanese surrender. He never became a Royal Navy officer and had an expensive uniform he couldn't wear.

I had similar encounters with the cock-up department some 18 years later.

Most likely that would be due to working in the department that I did. Our mistakes had high repercussions than simply someone being delayed in departing the military. Sadly though, this just goes to show you the slow downfall of the military. Ce la vie
 
Woohoo! The air conditioner is fixed!

Oh crap, I wore shorts expecting another scorcher... (I never wear shorts to work)
 
Yay Navy Medical! You guys fucked up the type of appointment I needed to have done in order for me to separate. Now you won't give me an appt before I separate and tell me I'm going to have to fix it. Of course it doesn't matter how many other people you piss off or fuck over. And the irony being that you told me my appt, which took all of two minutes, was supposed to be a half hour and that I needed a 45min one to do what I needed to get done. Worthless, you are.

So this is taking an interesting step. Talked to separations today...figuring they would be a bit upset that everything went topsy turvy. Instead...they just shrugged, smiled and informed me that since its still an honorable discharge and that technically my contract doesn't run up until December 3rd, they don't care when I separate and that I'll just be on hold until medical or what not is done with me. Which, when I informed my LPO [supervisor] of this, he just got an evil glint in his eye and asked me if I really wanted out, then told me if I'd rather wait till I get much closer to my EAOS [Dec 3rd] he can see about making "arrangements".

What are the implications of waiting till you get closer? And what arrangements might he be making???
