Today, I was headed to the transportation office to arrange my flight details to Qatar this summer. This assignment is truly a crap job for me. I will be serving in a position below my pay grade so it has absolutely no career value for me.
Anyway, as I pulled into the parking lot one of my old battalion commanders (current Army 06) called me. I had previously told him about this assignment and he was calling to ask if I wanted him to get my orders changed to work for him in DC. Wow! Of course I said yes, so now I have to wait to see if he can swing it.
It is funny how things work out.
