Oops!?!?!!!???
Be careful about what you pray for….
I have been informed that I have been appointed to the Pueblo Area Council Of Governments (PACOG) Citizens Advisory Council (CAC) for Transportation.
I received the notification of my appointment by the council last Friday.
I’ve been in something of a state of bemusement since then, as I gave my chances of appointment a probabilty of less than .1. [Note: For the non-math-inclined less than 10%; closer to 1-in-100.
I do love practicing the skills necessary to put things in their proper place at the proper time. That’s what logistics is all about. The military teaches it with a certain sense of ‘fervor’. It gives you a sense that peoples’ lives might, actually, heaven forefend…depend upon it.
So be it….
...I’m appointed. I’ll serve here for the duration; a year. I’ll find it educational and an interesting exercise of all the skills, that ALL of you, whether you, like-it-or-not, have paid to equip me. [Note: I have to admit that I thoroughly enjoyed the Army’s Logistics Executive Development Course (LEDC). I got so bent out of shape that whatever it was that came out of it was so much better than what went in.]
I hope to apply everything I’ve been given, by the Army and authorities higher than that, is exorcised, properly….
Regards….
