(typed this up yesterday)
I just saw a video on www.af.mil about some tests a squadron was doing with some cool man- toys. Of course, one of the test platforms was an E-3.
Once again, I see a video in the news about the E-3 with no mention whatsoever of the 1A4 career field. Thanks. I actually wanted to see video footage without any hint as to what actually goes on on the back row. I needed to hear more weapons speak. I actually did care what they were talking about.
It gets better. Tomorrow I have to go to work and personally train the new generation of lean, mean, trackball/switch-action/delivery boy AETC trained killing machines. I have to do it with a smiley face and a positive attitude. It's not thier fault I'm bitter. They didn't do anything wrong (that I know of). How can I say to them with a straight face that their job actually matters? That what they do counts? That they will have a successful career doing what they've spent the past few months (maybe years) training to do? How do I not infect them with the discontent, bitterness and downright anger that I feel?
This is a serious battle in my heart. It affects everything I do at work
clicked on the link, but dont know where to go from there.. was trying to see what you were talking about.... hmm- a little help here maybe. I'm sorry your sturglling at work so bad. I will pray for you, I know we may not get satisfaction out of what we're doing at times, but some people do get that satisfaction- it may be right down thier alley of interest. I'll pray for you... I'll talk to you later this weekend. God Bless
ReplyDeleteI will also pray for you, that God would grant you joy each morning on your way to work and that you would gain a greater sense of purpose in the lives you are investing in. Perhaps this is your mission field, and whether you whole-heartedly enjoy your job or not, God does have a bigger purpose for you being there. I had to seek that persepctive out in my current workplace as well. Hope you have a wonderful weekend brother...
