Disappointments

"Again. They did it again.....I can't believe this straight-up MARNE-ing....again!

They have once again, on short notice, disappointed me of the leave date I waited all year for. I am now slotted for September 30th. Which completely misses the asked for date of September 23rd, the whole point of the exercise. Leave on that date also brings me back in time just ahead of my birthday.....come to think of it, that's the exact same day they sent me on leave last time!

This is becoming a discouraging pattern. Right down to the Not Happy At All With The Army reaction of the Bad Influence."
