If this story doesn’t teach a wife not to nag… I don’t know what will.
I have been getting on to Chad for about a week now to call Army HRC to change his address because his W2 from his 1 day muster duty is all we needed to file our taxes. Sure, it seemed like a good idea to nag, we were getting that awesome education tax credit and we’re itching to buy our first house.
Well, those plans have changed. When Chad called he was informed his account was red flagged for failure to mobilize. He laughed. He just wanted to change his address so we could get the W2. They willingly changed his address to send him his W2 and then they told him his orders would be in the mail within the week…
FML (we feel this deserves that)
Turns out 7 days after we moved from our apartment to my dad’s house to save for said house, The Army recalled Chad to active duty. His original orders were to report back to duty on January 17. Oops. Our excellent and attentive old apartment staff failed to inform of us of our overnight FedEx package from Army HRC… did I mention we specifically left a note about this on our letter to evacuate. Genius those kids are.
Anyway, here we are, Chad reports on 2.28. He will deploy sometime after that.
