O Captain, my Captain
Yep. It's official. I'm now a Captain! I now outrank my brother-in-law whose one a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy. Captain outranks him. What? A Captain in the Navy is an O-6, not an O-3? Ooops. Never mind.
Wanna know the really funny part? Here's the first sentence of my promotion order: "The President of the United States has reposed special trust and confidence in your patriotism, valor, fidelity, and abilities" HAHAHA! Does he know what that means? Does he have any clue what he's getting himself into by giving me more power? MUWAHAHAHA!
There is a down-side to this: "In view of these qualities and your demonstrated potential for increased responsibility..." More responsibility? That sounds like work to me. Maybe I want to go back.
Let's read on: "Your promotion pay and allowances and time in grade for promotion to the next grade will be effective on [22 July 2004]." More money? Woo Hoo!
All totaled, I guess this is a good thing. I'll keep the extra bar and just suck up the extra work.
