Been fighting contract battles mostly the last few days. Afghans just can't except how long it takes the U.S. government to pay them, and how often things get screwed up. They are constantly fearful they'll never get paid. One of my favorite expressions:
Hanlon's razor: "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity."
I'm having a hard time teaching the afghans this lesson in relation to our contracting process.
Today I got to run around in civilian clothes for a while. I went to the airport to do a sight survey. It feels strange to wear civilian clothes and to not have my weapon on me.
