Stolen!

Today is the last day our replacements will be visiting us and all I have to say is thank Jesus!  I printed out every single meeting we have to attend.  The guy tells me to save paper, so I print two slides per page.  He reviews the slides once I have them printed and organized in a binder and tells me that I have to print them out one slide per page.  I’m sorry, but we don’t have the resources for that.  Is he going to send some toner and paper when he gets back to the States because that stuff is hard to come by over here especially with all the budget cuts.  Can’t he be satisfied with us putting it on a disc and he doing whatever he wants with it when he gets to the States?

It has been an interesting day here today.  Our veterinary hospital was broken into last night and their narcotics safe was stolen.  That is what I arrived to work to find in my inbox.  Turns out one of their Specialists ripped out the safe and busted it open to steal drugs.  She is currently locked up in the psych ward at the hospital while the Criminal Investigation Division completes their investigation.  The veterinary hospital is also closed down until after the investigation is complete.  What a fiasco!

The new CPT is a great addition to the team.  We set his desk up right in front of mine so we can stare at each other all day if we have nothing else to do.  He has a great sense of humor and is so relieved to be away from where he was that he is willing to do anything that is asked of him.  So far, he doesn’t have a set job, so he just keeps us entertained all day.

Our shifts are changing starting tomorrow.  I will be working from six in the morning until roughly four in the afternoon.  The night LT will work the shift I currently work, the ten in the morning until eight at night.  The new LT took the night shift and he volunteered to work a 24 hour shift to facilitate the shift change. 

PT this morning was interesting as well.  The Soldier in charge of PT this morning failed to reserve the field, so we started with half the field.  His intent was to play soccer this morning.  We set up to play on half the field with the goals in position.  Since I do not like playing sports, I decided to run on the track instead.  On my tenth lap, about twenty minutes later, I came around the corner to find people in civilian clothes playing Ultimate Frisbee on the entire field.  My group left me!  I made my way back to my room to ask my roommate what happened, but when I got there, so was not there.  Ten minutes later, she arrived to the room and I asked her what happened.  The Ultimate Frisbee players had reserved the field and we were kicked off.  That explains where everyone went, but why did they leave me behind?  I guess everyone was so focused on getting back to bed that they forgot about me.  Oh well, at least I got a good workout in!
