YES! The day finally arrived, I'm shipping to my unit. We get in 0530 formation as our platoon sergeant comes up, he's in a good mood everything is great. Then he says "Oh I almost forgot, I got some bad news for some of you.". Pretty much instantly I knew this bad news would apply to me in some way shape or form. He calls off a list of names which, of course, mine is on. "Yea if your going to fourth, they have the day off, so a sponsor can't come and pick you so your going to be staying with me this weekend." It only makes sense.. So not only have all my friends left to their unit, I'm now rooming with a fat good for nothing NCO who's trying to switch his orders so he doesn't have to deploy.
Later that day my buddy calls me up to tell me how his room and everything is. So in short he's telling me how great it is, every one is being so nice and already inviting him to dinner and stuff. I'm like, well that's good I'm really happy for my battle. As I later adventure to the PX ONCE AGAIN, I run into my other friend who went to the same unit as I'm going to. "Hey man how did everything go?". "Well, they smoked the crap out of me, I can barely walk, and they said they're going to make it hell for me until I deploy." *SIGH* it only makes sense..
