Today's my ship-day. I'll be in South Carolina soon.

I won't have internet access for 3 months, but I'll be back eventually.

I'll be okay, don't you worry.

And if I'm NOT okay, I'll make a huge stink about it.

TTFN :-)

You get ONE guess who found this advert and took the picture:




If you guessed it was ME, you're right :-P

Can someone PLEASE tell me why when I mention to people that I recently joined the Army they automatically ask me does my husband approve and why HE doesn't do it instead?

I wish I were simply taking this out of context, and the scary part is even WOMEN are asking me this! Oh right, since I'm a married woman I obviously needed John's permission to fill out the mother of all job applications! Right, silly me, my bad! Even though John has a history of asthma, a medical condition that automatically disqualifies one from serving in ANY branch (permanently,) it really should be HIM volunteering to serve this country and not me BECAUSE APPARENTLY EVERYONE KNOWS WOMEN CAN'T PICK UP AN GUN AND LEARN HOW TO SHOOT THINGS! THAT would just be incredibly out of place, never-mind the fact that women have been fighting battles alongside men since Sparta (the Spartans trained their women to be archers and assassins, yet they were still considered second class citizens)

Sexism really fucking pisses me off.

Why the bloody-grunge-fuck does my neighbor insist on running her leaf-blower in the summertime over her already immaculately kept lawn (which is already leaf-free and has been for some time now, BTW) BEFORE 0800 HOURS!?!?!?

Wow, I have been away for a while.

Yeah, so I finally got fired, but a big shocker it was actually for something I didn't do. I kinda figured BW had been looking for an excuse to fire me for SOMETHING, so the stupid-ass new girl accused me of staring at her boobs.

Um, right.

Okay, first of all, if you don't want people staring at your chest A) you should have thought of that before getting that massive tattoo there and B) don't wear tight revealing clothes to the place where you work. It's a hotel, not a titty-bar.

Arkansas is a work-at-will state, but according to federal law, in matters of sexual harassment an investigation is required before action is taken. Well there WAS NO INVESTIGATION, they just up and fired me.

And the shitty part is about a month prior a male employee who really DID harass a female desk clerk STILL WORKS THERE!

So yeah, Best Western of Fayetteville Arkansas is staring down the barrel of a loaded lawsuit.

I have an appointment with an Army recruiter at noon. Fuck the hotel industry, I'm sick of sitting on my ass doing nothing!
