On the job search again.

Well five months until my EAOS, at which point the Navy has no choice but to let me go. It has been a roller coaster the last three years with the Navy being the focal instigator of displeasure. Since September last year, the command has been playing games with my tenure in the Navy telling me that they are letting me go, then turning around and changing their minds. They went so far as to giving me a separation date in December, at which I accepted on offer with Exelon to be a operation supervisor at their Nuclear Generating Station at Quad City for a 6 figure salary. Then two days later, the Navy (the command more specific) changed their mind. In the mean time, I have been working for MARF OCTG teaching officer and enlisted students fresh from Charleston. Its been a nice break from shift work and quite relaxing to be able to actually having weekends again. That leaves me with more time to go golfing, fishing, playing with Miles and Louis and to sit in front of the computer and waste my life away.


Last Saturday was the first time I caught a fish in over 20 years!! True, I have gone fishing many times and have had some epic battles with Salmon in Washington; but this time I would not be shut out. Okay, it is not like I reeled in some beauties; I got a 4 oz Perch and a 8 oz Bass ( and that is being generous on the size) but it is a start.
