By now, normally. But its so much cheaper for them to keep a single guy overseas than it is to transfer someone with a family. I've been trying to get to Italy for a very long time, even volunteered for Korea just to get the chance. And the pay is so much better overseas that it, quite literally, is not funny.

I did request this assignment and I'm not complaining. Now if only my bike would get here, and my bed.
