Typical Army
I have been doing this for the better part of 9 years. I know that there is a certain amount of bulls**t that goes along with being in the Army, or just life in general. This seems to be a larger amount than usual. Let me fill you in.
The unit that I normally belong to, drill with, is not the same that I am training with at the moment, but they both fall under the same next level higher command. The command at the next level, decided that those of us that just got off of our 3 week training cycle, that we should drill this weekend. I know, I know, "you are in the Army, just deal with it," wrong, we were told before we left in July, that we wouldn't have to drill anymore until we leave, this turned out to be false information. So, because the Gov't runs on a Sep 30-Oct 1 year, they wanted us to show up and drill, so that their numbers look better, nevermind that it takes away weekends that we could be spending with our families.
Some folks just don't get it.
On a different note. I can tell that I have been in CA too long, when a 950 sq ft house, for 450K is a good deal. Even though it is close to the beach. Sometimes I miss Arizona.

$450k for 950 square feet? Sheesh! Come back to the PNW before it's too late.
