Seriously?….SERIOUSLY!?!?!?
I’ve absolutely had it with this base. HAD. IT. I spent and HOUR sitting in the waiting room yesterday to talk to the SrA that has my form. After sitting there an HOUR they ask me again what I’m there for. So I repeat myself very angrily that I’m there to see that certain SrA. They page her again. The phone immediately rings and they tell me she left for a meeting and will be back in an hour if I want to wait? NO, I do NOT want to wait another freakin’ hour for her to come back and still not see me. I have to pick up my kid from the babysitter! “Do you want her phone number?” Yes, not like she’ll answer or call me back. They don’t seem to understand that Hubby graduates WEDNESDAY. And he still doesn’t have Orders b/c of this stupid form!
So I call her, no lie, 6 times yesterday and she never answers the phone. I left her 2 messages with both my phone numbers. She never calls back.
She calls this morning. I tell her I need to come get my form so my Hubby can get his Orders. “You have to come in on Tuesday at noon for a Briefing. Then when the Doctors clear you after that Briefing your form will get sent to Hawai’i and when it comes back clear you’ll get it.” Seriously. SERIOUSLY?! Are you fucking kidding me!? When I went to my physical almost 2 weeks ago I asked “This is all I have to do right? This appointment is it? After this the form gets signed and we’re done?” “Yes.”
NOBODY TOLD ME I HAD TO GO TO A BRIEFING! I have to go b/c I have Asthma which automatically gets me kicked into needing ANOTHER form that needs to be review by this stupid panel of doctors at this briefing. One of Hubby’s classmates whose family is going through this same stuff went to this briefing last week said basically all they asked was “Are you looking forward to moving to Hawai’i?” What if I say “no”. Then what? It’s not like that changes anything!!! On top of that Noon is when my kid eats lunch and then goes down for a nap. She insists he has to be there. He’s effing 19 months old and NOT TALKING. WHAT THE HELL!?!?! They only have these Briefings on Tuesdays so I can’t do it sooner. “Hawai’i has 14 days to get the paperwork done but they usually don’t take that long. But they do have 14 days to do it.” I ask “From Tuesday?” “Yes.” “You do realize, as I’ve already said, that my Husband graduates on Wednesday and he still does not have Orders because of this?” Silence. “There is no possible way we can do this sooner?” “No, Ma’am.” I tell her we’ll be there but I can’t guarantee my son will behave since it will be his nap time and hang up.
I am so livid that after hanging up I screamed (which scared my poor kid) and smacked the glass door (b/c I knew punching it was probably a bad idea). I felt awful for scaring Monkey, I totally lost my cool and I admit that. I then fell to the floor and cried. Monkey had no idea what to do with his poor Mama. I asked him for a hug and he backed away. I fear I’ve scarred him for life.
I hate this base. Hate. It. Just wait till Hubby gets home and finds out about all of this. Oh my gosh it’s gonna be insane.
Oh dear. That sucks that they’re being so ridiculous about the whole thing. I really hope it gets straightened out and fast.
