I didn't blog about this yesterday but thought I would share an update on the issue I had two weeks ago with my lawn. I got a phone call yesterday from the manager of housing for the post. Thursday night, I sent the ICE comment in about my little experience with the community NCO. I wasn't expecting a response until Monday because Friday was a training holiday, so I was really surprised when I got a call from her. She told me who she was and that she received my comment. She immediately apologized for the incident and told me it was not acceptable with the way I had been treated. She told me that it was being handled by the military side of their house as well as the civilian side. I told her thank you for the apology and that I was most concerned to make sure it didn't happen to another spouse. She told me she agreed and that it won't happen again. I told her thank you for her quick response. She told me if I ever need anything to contact her directly. She was very nice and polite and made me regain a little faith in the on post housing company.
I hate getting people in trouble. It is not my typical style. I usually try to handle it in the quietest way possible, but this situation was one that I couldn't handle quietly. I couldn't just let it go and hope that it didn't happen again. I had to tell someone, because I know a lot of spouses whose husbands are deployed that could very easily be taken advantage of and I don't want to see that happen to anyone else. And who knows who else they have done this to. I guess, I just know how it feels to feel powerless against someone who is abusing their power, and I personally don't like it. I am strong enough to fight back when necessary, but not everyone is.
On that note, I am getting off here to get some sleep. Counting down the days until his feet land on US soil again!
