Changes

Everyone goes through changes, especially at work. But you don't expect it after only 2 months (not even actually).

This week, my OIC got pulled to do a different slot within the CMRE mission, leaving me as the only CMRE subject matter on Materiel Redistribution. The last few nights have been spent dealing with the changes and really revamping some of the processes I already did. My previous OIC and myself worked on a lot of things together, but some of things the previous unit left behind weren't the easiest or best ways to do things. I took what they started, and made something of my own (with help and ideas from other sections).

I should add though, that it will not be last time I work with my former OIC. I'll still be helping with the shipment of HAZMAT out of his new workspace.

 But enough about work (even though that's one of the only things I have to talk about here).

The rains picked up again this week. And we've had quite a few storms. This place is a wreck. Worse than before. I didn't think that was possible. Pretty sure if we get anymore rain I'll have to use a boat to get to work. Yes, it's that bad. First time I haven't been able to get back home without getting feet wet.

Can't wait for the rainy season to end!

I do also have to say, I've been talking to a lot of Australians lately. Talk about some of the nicest people I've had to deal with in my mission. Always so happy and polite over the phone. Proud to have one as a brother-in-law!
