Just so everyone knows this is a rant. Not a god I'm so emo thing.

Anyway I have finally hit my 30 day mark for leave coming up. The greatest thing is that I don't have to pay for it, so if I think about extending here...which I won't... I will get a month leave. Along with that I get more leave when I get back home. I think that's how it works.

As today starts out... I wake up and talk to the husband. Have our "chat" and interesting conversations to keep me sane. I then go out to do run some errands. During my errand running the CRAM goes off... Fuck. CRAM helps everyone know that there's a rocket or mortar headed to that area of the FOB. You have about 20 seconds before impact to get under something or lay down on the ground and kiss your ass good bye. So the alarm goes off and I run to a duck and cover. Who just so happens to be there ALONE with me? The guy that harasses me all the time. "Hey Conklin... What a surprise..." The conversation then proceeds to, "Nice PTs. Wanna fuck?" For fuck's sake I've spent about 5 months away from my husband. I know I can go another stop teasing me. dammit. I then proceed to punch him in the face and the all clear comes around. So we are able to get out. I was on my way to the laundry so I ran up there turned in my dirty clothes and ran to the office. There sitting on my desk was a note to clean the desk... Which is something I do EVERYDAY. So I wrote a reply back. "If you all quit putting shit on my desk it would stay clean. Thank you." Then I got in trouble for disobeying a direct order. WTF you people PUT YOUR GODDAMN TOOLS ON MY DESK WHAT DO YOU EXPECT MY FUCKING REPLY IS GOING TO BE.

Along with that I go to the cafe and grab a tea to calm my nerves. I found out that one of my bosses was there. We sat and chatted for a bit. I love this boss. I told him all about my day. How I was sick and tired of people putting shit on my desk and expecting me to clean up after them and what not. Then my boss tells me about this E-4 corporal that has the I work attitude, but only works on certain things. This CPL always shoves the radio on to me. Like he doesn't have to understand the damn thing. It pisses me off. If he doesn't learn the shit than I'm stuck in this box. This CPL has a problem expanding to other things. When we work conferences, the same CPL has a problem working there. I hate working conferences just as much as the next person, but you know. It's just a part of life. But he sluffs off and says that he doesn't know how to run the machines in there... When he goes to the Embassy conference room and it's so THE SAME THING DAMMIT. IT'S THE SAME GOD DAMN THING GET TO FUCKING WORK!!! STOP THROWING THINGS ON ME DAMMIT!

Anyway we are working the conference and I get sent outside because everyone sees my anger. So they have it covered after I showed the CPL up by making sure everything worked but when he said something like "Oh I didn't know that." or "Yeah it sure is different at the Embassy." My blood begins to boil like crazy. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME YOU, YOURSELF, EVEN TOLD ME ABOUT HOW TO WORK THE EMBASSY IF YOU WERE GONE. IT'S THE SAME DAMN THING.

When it comes to missions for my favorite boss, the same CPL steals them away. Every single mission he comes in and steals. Takes on all the work himself. It gets on my freakin nerves. I can't same anything because I don't have the authority to.

Along with that... He's got a fake humility. When he comes behind me and checks my work. He will find something wrong. Then it works. He will take all the credit after I did all the hard fucking work and if I even say anything... He will throw the fact that I left a wire loose, or something along that line of detail then rub it in my face by telling everyone about it. When they thank him, he goes... Oh unlike Conklin, I was doing my job. I was just doing my job, no need to thank me. I was just correcting Conklin's mistake, no need to thank me. Oh Conklin was the one that messed it up and I fixed it, no need to thank me.

wtf.... I'M GETTING SO FUCKING TIRED OF THIS SHIT. I can't wait to fucking go home away from this shit. I'm just pissed. I really want to shoot the mother fucker.

Anyway So I decided to skip out on the big kahuna's b-day party. I needed to cool off. After that I started running Karaoke night. It's a lot of fun to run it instead of participate. I like watching other's sing instead of me. As soon as one of my friends got up to sing. KABOOOM. Suicide bomber outside in the red zone. You could hear everything going on but you can't see things. It's pretty scary out here.

Well first off True, I'm really glad to hear you're okay and hopefully unharmed with all that chaos going on.

Anyways I know it's not much but is there anyone else higher up that's understanding like one of the bosses you mentioned? This sounds like it's been a long ongoing issue so maybe you've tried just about anything you can to get that guy and others off your back... I dunno.

Other than that I say just keep trying to keep yourself busy with events you enjoy and everything like the karaoke thing. But yeah it sounds like that's a bit hard to pull off too...

Well how much longer until your leave? I sure hope you get a long well deserved vacation.

So today I was woken up to the chu shaking so hard because of two Vehicle Born IEDs. ugh... The explosions were in the same area as last night. O.o

Edit: Xeo my squad leader is on vacation right now. I have to wait til he gets back. For now the second one up is an E-5 who has YET to see any of this.

I don't know what your talking about. Army is a lot more fun. Just you don't have the backstabbings you're stabbed infront of people.

Well, I hope the month speeds by and that your squad leader gets back soon. Honestly, have the one guy brought up on sexual harassment charges like he fucking deserves.

I sit here and I see a lot of things that totally insult me. Guys with girls waiting on them at home being unfaithful to them. I mean what the hell... It really upsets me these days when I see this during tour.

I mean Iraq is like a tour in Germany. Only no alcohol. Speaking of which I got just a few more days left and then I had on home. I cannot wait. I mean this entire place is a shit hole and always smells like a septic tank and running here sucks.

Yeah, the cheating thing seems to be part of the image of the modern US soldier. You enjoying your leave yet?
