The Last Obstacle: Passed

Yesterday, I’m late in posting this but so be it, I was required to complete a Physical Abilities Test in order to maintain my employment with the Federal Government. This test was the biggest stress factor in my life, since I was not entirely confident that I would do well on all five of the portions of the test. Let’s face it, I’m not really a physical type of guy. I don’t much like sports, even golf does not get me out very often and it’s my favorite sport to play. Well, the short story is that not only did I pass the Physical Abilities Test, I passed every portion of it, under the benchmark time. I didn’t know that I had it in me to do as well as I did but the simple fact is that training alone for a test like this really isn’t the same as actually doing it, particularly when one factors in the encouragement of one’s classmates. There are no more significant obstacles to my continued employment, and eventual retirement. The remaining tests are ones that I know I am easily capable of passing…. but there’s always graduation with honors to shoot for. I’m definitely shooting.
