Had a really crap day today. It was supposed to be a day of rest before we go over the wire again. I got supposedly hand picked to escort some journos, three women and a guy, and make sure that they were looked after. They demanded that we take them to really dangerous areas where everyone one was at significant risk. They stopped to have lunch with 'the locals' left us outside with nothing apart from our inedible freakin day packs and some old MRE's that we had buried away in the truck. They gave everyone they saw candy and soda told us to find our own. Later in the afternoon I was overheard saying that I resented being put in harms way for no good reason and being treated like an idiot .... got spat at and told I was low life scum by one of the women and reported with a comment that we'd ruined everyones day and that we'd scared the locals with our surly and aggressive behaviour. We're not here on holiday and we're not babysitters ... what do these people really think they're doing. I might be wrong about these peoples motives, I don't know, I'm obviously not that bright .... all I do know is that I'm now on report and will lose hard earned privileges as a result. Anyway, enough of my whining just needed to have a wee rant. I'm off to brush up my attitude ... the bad one of course >
