Yesterday was my first day at work. The awesome thing of it all is that because everyone is either on block leave, leave, or just on a half day schedule...practically nothing got done. I showed up to work at 0900, and was out by noon. The great thing is that I ran into one of the other guys that was in-processing with me at Fort Jackson, turns out he's stationed here also and lives on the second floor of my building. At least I know somebody now.
I've seen more of the installation now, whatever there is to see of it at least. It's extremely small, but I don't really mind that. One cool thing is that I get to walk through the heli-pads everyday to and from work and check out all of the Apache helicopters do their thing. Those are some bad ass motherfuckers. My unit seems to play things very much by the book, that means Ill go in everyday, do my job, and keep a low profile from there on out. At least people are very amicable and approachable.
There is talk of bringing me into the unit the right way tonight, they're taking me out to a nearby town called Bad Windsheim. I dunno what awaits me, but I've been warned to drink a lot of water until we go out. Some of the girls and guys here have several bottles of Grey Goose, Patron (my archnemisis), and JW Blue lined up, to name a few. Siiigggghhhhh. haha. Anyway, I'm off to the gym. I'm setting up my internet and phone tomorrow, will be able to call unlimited to the US. That's it for now. Cheers!
