So I came back to work on Monday after being off for the last 55 days (and not winning the stupid lottery once!) The first day back to work when you're in the military is always a little disconcerting, because you never know what dopey inane new rules and regulations they may have passed in your absence.

"You! What do you think you're doing, walking in that door? That door is OUT only, and then only if you're a Captain and above, and it's the odd Tuesday of the month and Jupiter is in Aquarius!"

"Hey, Sarge, why aren't you wearing your gloves?"
"Um, because it's 12 degrees Celsius out?"
"Sorry, the new base policy is everyone will wear their gloves at all times during the winter months, from Oct 1 - Apr 30, unless you're wearing your fur cap, in which case you will wear mittens and mukluks.
"But I'm sitting at my desk!"
"What's your point?"

And god knows what they might have volunteered your for while you were away!
