CTK, class, and praises.

First order of business is to tell everyone that I am going to the tool crib but the praises to God is higher than last post. With AWANA on Sundays now, I will not have to worry about not getting enough sleep for work. My speech class is unbelievible time consuming. Reading tons for that class and also reading alot for my Human Resoruce Managment class. I will post more later about these classes.

I also want to note that I might change plans about want I am going to do after I leave the AF. Again more to come.

Moving, paperwork, and a new job.

So in two weeks, I will be moving into a new house/ old barn and I also might be doing a new job starting Sept. 1st. Among all this is a massive amount of paper work that has to get done.

So about the new job. I will be working in are support area. So I will be making sure that all tools that are used on the flightline are accounted for. I do not want to go to support because then I will have to fly a desk and not work on airplanes. I was told that I will be working with Technical Orders and the laptops that they are on.

Cons: I do not want to work their. No more TDY aka seeing really cool places on the expanse of the government.

Pros: A more stable work schedule in which I will be able to be available for working sound on Sundays, Awana (either on Wednesday or Sunday), and being a project monitor for PMOC. In other words, I can be more depended on it what I do at the chapel. I can also be able to do school work at work.

Even though I do not want to go to support, I see that going to support will help the ministries that I am a part of. I will still have to work an weekend every month or 2.

About moving. First I will comment on my mother comment about on being like my uncle. That is I am not like my uncle although an CD rack made out of Legos is pretty sweet. Anyways, I am going to look at some more furniture today at Thedford (Thomas Paine was born where) and Bury St. Edmund (Sidenote: That is where buried St. Edmund). I get the keys on the 4th and then on the 5th I can start to move in.

Well I need to eat so breakfast so I must leave, anyways have a nice weekend and I will see everyone later.

Being a Christian at Work.

This post is more for me than anything. I have notice in my life as a crew chief, that I have not been living up to a subpar level as a Christian at the work place. I am quick to judge people (not on salvation) for their mistakes when possible it was not them, I complain about people behind their back, and I do not show the joy that I have in my life with Christ. In light of this, my section chiefs have wanted me to act more like a Staff Sargent (SSgt) since I am now a Senior Airmen (Sra). Be more of a leader. I am try to figure all this out. I am trying to be more confronting when I see a problem and find more info. A bad example would have been this morning. I accused a SSgt of not finishing forms for a wash. I was upset that he did not do what I told that needed to be done. When I confronted him about it, he exampled that he wanted are truck driver to drop me off so the forms would get done. I was mad at him because our truck driver would not take me to him because he also was mad to him (for other reasons). That was not very Christian of me and a make against my testimony for Christ. Now since I have seen my problem, with God's grace, I am going to change my attitude to reflect more of my Christian beliefs. Please pray that by God's grace I can live more like his Son at work.

Also I want to share that at my last TDY, I was less then Christian as I had to much alchole by my standard. I do not drink much so I do not know how drunk I was but I did have a headache when I stop drink and started to drink water and eat gyros (real gyros). Just wanted everyone to know so that they will pray for when I go TDY again.

Later
