Marking time…

Whomever decided that patience is a virtue should be clubbed about the head and neck like a baby seal. I can only assume that anyone who thought sitting around quietly waiting for something to happent to them, must not have had much worth waiting for coming their direction. Yet, here I sit; anything but patient and without the first thing to do about it other than continue sitting here waiting. That and railing against the virtue of patience, of course. I suppose they can make me wait, but there’s no power in heaven or on earth that can make me like it… or even want to like it. Gratification has been sufficiently deferred and I want it now, damnit.

Yes, if you’re wondering, it feels better now that I’ve said that. I’ll be busy marking time if anyone needs me.

      • LOL! I’ve been waiting on an offer from a CPAC in the SE for 3 months. I know I was recommended for that one.

        I had another interview today in the DC area that I feel really good about. I’m so fed up with CPAC. What should be a joyful, exciting time has left me with a really bitter taste in my mouth.

        I suggested to the Assistant Secretary of the Army (through their comment section) that the HR Specialists should have to take furlough days to help save money since their responsibilities were so dramatically reduced during the freeze.

      • Ha! I’ve sort of been curious about what all those personnelists have been up to for the last three months. I’m still waiting to hear back from an interview I had in January that told me “you’re the one” before the freeze kicked in. I won’t be holding my breath on that though. I’ll sign on for whatever it takes to get back east and go from there. Good luck!
