Against all Odds, Another Post

Well, it has been a few weeks, so I thought I would go ahead and write another post.
It has been pretty hot here in Japan. The temps have not gotten into the 100 degree range, but you throw some 90% humidity into the mix, and you want to do nothing that involves walking around outside. (Unless it's early in the morning or late at night.)

I know it has been much hotter State-side, so my heart goes out to those that were affected by the heat wave. (Remember that global warming is nothing but a figment of our imagination.)

Work has continued to be a fairly rough endeavor every day. I am learning how to be a Contracting Officer right now, and that entails learning three seperate computer systems. I have made a few mistakes, and then people criticize me and expect me to be all ashamed. The look on their face when I look at them and blink then say, "So?" is priceless. You know the T-shirt that says , "Does it look like I give a damn?" comes to mind. If I could get away with it, I would wear it. Maybe I'll get a white one if I can find it, and wear it under my uniform.

Seriously people, it's not like I don't care, but with everything else going on at work, getting all of my contracting actions exactly right in the system does not jump to the front of the stove so to speak.

That's about all I have on that.

Later peeps.
