What a day. Fridays are usually hell in the land of Carl Vinson Communications, and today was. But the morale supression tactics of our chain of command were offset by the September '03 advancement results.

This morning, Senior Chief (Mom) got on my ass early about a computer down in the photo lab which really is out of my jurisdiction seeing as the cable's bad and the ET's have to re-run the cable. But they've been doing some abysmally slow trobleshooting this week and I was catching hell for it. So Senior calls up their Chief and throws a fit, and drags me down with her making me look like buddy-fucker of the year. Not cool.

But after the storm, she informed me that the results were out. So I bolt back to 'comm to tell everyone and we all huddle around the computer, only to get knocked back out to perception stations in the passageways.

Boooo.

When I walked back towards 'comm about ten minutes later and "J" comes out, slinks next to me with a smile on her face from ear-to-ear. That's when I knew I'd made it. She then whispers "Congratulations IT2 !" in my ear and the weight was lifted. She made it too along with G-Man. Phillymo, CS2 Monkey, Ninja and the Assasin made third class. Combs and Drew made first.

All this the day after we find out Wraydar's having a kid. WTF?
