Where, Oh Where, Has That Little Form Gone?

Where, oh where, might it be?

Still waiting for my paperwork to go through so I can receive my orders and start working on transitioning us to the States.

I suppose it's making it's way... It's restarted it's path. I'd submitted it last week, and fully expected it to be delayed due to the four day holiday (Glorious Columbus Day). Had a meeting scheduled on Wednesday, with the entire Chain of Command. Immediately prior, some of my (former) co-workers in the personnel office handed me some forms. Included was... my reassignment request! The original, not a copy, but the very original.

Apparently, it had left the office and made it's way up the chain, and along the way, some clerk had put it in the wrong slot, and it came right back down. So, after a week plus, there it was, in my hot little hands.

So, it's been resubmitted, and this time, the Command is bypassing ALL of the regular channels to ensure that doesn't happen again.

Until it's processed, there are no orders. And in the Army, without orders, no one will talk to you about anything (it's a good policy, otherwise a lot of people would waste time on whims and dreams).

So, fingers crossed... entering another weekend... hopefully soon, so I can start getting busy. In a holding pattern for now.
