It was supposed to be "don't" have any co-workers. Can you use you're admin powers to edit it?

I must say I like everyone of my co-workers including the higher ups. My Japanese skills are at a pre-school level and I can barely read. My co-workers translate important information for me and keep me in the loop. Everyone is very supportive. I made a lot of friends here. We also party together and get drunk to no end. I feel like part of the group and not like a foreigner.

I like most of my coworkers. Only the few who are either anal or try to dodge work at every opportunity piss me off.

Now that's cool. What is it exactly that you do again? If you can't explain in one sentence, what you do, I'll assume it's illegal.

My boss is pretty enthusiastic, but hardly knows the technical stuff or the procedures necessary to get things done...him being a retired LtCol, I kind of expect that. He gives me a mission and I get it done.

My peer is pretty bright, talkative, and does things well, but will not do anything on his own accord unless somebody tells him to do it. My SSgt is motivated (not in an anal-Marine Corps way, but more like in a common-sense, hey let's do some MCMAP and get you another belt kinda way) and has pretty good work ethic.

Overall...yeah, I'm satisfied.

My co-workers are the only thing that make my job tolerable. On the other hand, they're also the thing I hate most about the job. It depends on which co-workers you're talking about. I get along well with my IT guys, and my other sewer-level colleagues.

I dislike anyone who makes more money or is treated better than I am.
