I hate the holidays

I'm pretty sure I posted about this last year too, but yeah, here's a couple emails I got from some people back in Japan today

Quote:

Josh,I just wanted to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving (a few days early)! I hope things are going well out there. Thank you for your service to our country, it is truly appreciated. I know it can be difficult to spend the holidays away from your family so if you or your family need anything at all, please let me know. We’ll be sending out a big care package for you tomorrow so I hope it brings you a little bit of home.
Happy Turkey Day,
v/r Capt F

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving. I first want to say thank you for serving your country and I know how it feels to be away from family during the holidays. It just so happens, I was there on Thanksgiving 2001. I look forward to meeting you and please let me know if there’s anything I can do for you or your family.

Okay so the first one is my OIC (Officer in Charge), she's pretty cool, but apparently she has no recolection of who I am. What ****** family do I have in Japan?? If I told her that my mom needed brain surgery do you think she would be so willing to help? NO, because she has no idea who I am, and why is she calling me by my first name anyways? Either way the second dude I have no clue who he is, but apprently he knows me. Again he knows me so well that he knows that I HAVE NO ******* FAMILY IN JAPAN, WHEN WILL PEOPLE LEARN THAT SINGLE PEOPLE ARE ON THAT ISLAND TOO??? I replied back to that guy with "Have fun with your family (assuming you have one on island with you, unlike myself; by the way thanks for rubbing that in) and eat some turkey for me seeing as I'll be having the usual, Camel meat in some sauce and french fries."
Come to think of it, they are writing this email two days before Thanksgiving too which means that they have the next two days off, which means some sort of Thanksgiving week off or whatever. You know I really have no problem working 16 hour days until some other douche bag rubs it in my ******* face that they have the weekend off and THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THE SAME JOB AS ME. These mother ers should come out here, relieve me for the weekend, and pay for my ticket back to Florida. ****** **** **** **** *** ***** ****, my job sucks.
