Landmark day today I have now been a Civi longer than I was in the Army (15 Years Ex Royal Hamps not PWRR)
Things that I still cant get my head around
1.People not turning up on time for work, meetings, etc. I have managed to stop my self from asking if the time was AM or PM or excepting them to be 5 mins early
2.The concept of its not my job (do they work for the same company) this one still makes me want to kick things around in the office.
3.There are more muppets in charge in civi St than in the Army but a least you can sack them.
Things that I like.
1.Overtime or time in leui
2.Its not if a CO,Plt commander likes you its if you can do the job
3.Being paid a lot more than I was in the Army
Things I miss
1.Playing Rugby more than once a week and at trianing there being more than 5 people.
2.Going on the piss midweek
3.The teamwork
4.Going to the Range, Gym and not having to pay for it (membership fees)
5.Adventure Training this was a big thing in the RHamps and teying to get a couple of civis to try caving,canoeing in they own time is a real pain
