Man I cant believe that I only have 1 more full day and a morning left here on this FOB. Trying to fly outta here Friday morning to Bagram. Hopefully I am not on Bagram for very long. Then it will be Kuwait and then home bound from there. Hoping to be back in the states before July 4th so I can spend it with my daughter.

Yeah it has been a crazy week for me so far. Today I spent more than I wanted to mailing all of my stuff home. I am down to just a duffel and a backpack now.

That's not a mystery. The chicken crossed the road to show the opossums it could be done.

It's funny listening to my sister talk on the phone at work. She'll be talking to someone from the south and all of the sudden she starts talking like them. It's so weird.

I don't think that's a question you want to find the answer to in Afghanistan. Of course it could be a good way to lose 10lbs instantly. (doesn't the human head weigh about 10lbs?)

I think I'm about ready to snap on some parts people....


Call up..."I need a Rear axle seal for a '68 Mustang, 289, automatic"

Delivery guy shows up with a rear main seal for the engine..

Call back "I SAID, rear AXLE seal....not rear main seal!"....response is "sorry, I was at the front counter and covered up....have to order it, will be here in the morning"

This morning delivery guy shows up with 2 seals...Typically if there is a question they will send both parts....the ticket reads "pinion seals" and they are most definitely 2 different pinion seals and NOT axle seals.

So I call back again "Strike two, you sent me PINION seals...not axle seals"....Response "Well that's what the computer tells me is the outer axle seal"

So I say "Well the computer is wrong and now I have a car torn apart that's been on the lift for 2 days waiting on an axle seal. You know those big thick books you have behind the counter?...Those are parts books, try using one instead relying on the computer...I bet it gives you the right part number."

Response..."let me do some research and call you back"

Why believe that anyone from the now generation is capable of picking up a book and actually reading? :shock: I get an earful for reading all of the time in an effort to curve idiocy like this. Maybe you should offer him a reward for good behavior if he is able to actually get it right next time? Guess who gets a dollar for doing their job right for a change!?!?
