In Groton, at least twice a week, a few of us in Nav Div and eventually the whole division would go to the bowling alley, get lunch, and go into the pub and watch The Price is Right on the big screens... Eventually, at 1100, none of the screens would be on sports, we got them all changed over to PiR and after a while they were always on PiR even when we weren't there. It became the thing. While we were there, we would play Super Chexx, table tennis, shuffleboard, etc. It is actually my fondest memory of being on subs...

A lot officers in aviation, including yours truly, dips (I don't anymore). I'm not sure why that is. I started in high school being that I lived in an inbred hillbilly locale as a kid. I often went to the smoking sponson with a cigar when I was deployed so I could hear all the mess deck rumors.

No sense in trying to find a way to get out of going to lab tech school, unless you are a flawless candidate for Recon/BUDS (the only time I've ever seen someone's orders change). Just avoid orders to Lemoore or 29 Palms and you'll likely end up in a decent place to spend the rest of your enlistment deciding if it's worth it to stay in or make plans on getting out.

I really wanted to be a BMET, but I can't jump into that school out of A school anyway. I wanted to go 0000 so I could come back after a year wiping asses and go to BMET, but instead it looks like I'll spend 3.5 years as a lab tech instead, since they said I had to be an 8506 for 4 years before I could archive the NEC. Plus BMET requires at least four years left in your contract, so after a year I would only need to extend 6 months to do it. Unless the Navy is a lot better in four years than it is now, that won't happen.

I went a grand total of 2 days on USS 2 ships ago. Found a pile of rags and pubes stuck together stuffed into a hole in the raised decking during my "check aboard inspection." Same dude left his computer out in his "spot" 3 days later. He had doggy porn playing.

We had a ninja-baiter in our shop that used to target any rags with floral patterns, fucker would use one and put it back in the rag pile.

Had a dude get called out for beating it into t-shirts in berthing. He tried to deny it but the shirts had his name stamped on it.

Another guy in my shop got written up when he got caught "painting" in the aft skid room. Pretty sure they left his write up as a counseling statement though.

Surprisingly as a civilian, don't have to worry about finding jerkoff rags anymore. Makes for a much more relaxing work environment.

I'm kinda curious what sort of vessel has eighty dudes in a single berthing compartment and a master chief that doesn't know that number by heart. Carrier? If he hadn't said 'first-classes' I would've assumed it was a gator freighter and he was addressing Marines.

Told this before but we had a guy who raped all the vacuum cleaners. He wasn't even particularly sneaky about it, if he saw someone bring a new wet-dry vac down the hatch he'd loiter around waiting for the unboxing, laughing "fresh fish." It got to the point where people were hiding their personal bilge-sucker hoses just to keep them unsullied, and he took pride in letting you know when yours had been violated.

You can get almost any school written into your contract, even 8404, and if you have the civilian training (such as XRay tech) for it the Navy can draft up stuff to have you go to some of the specialty schools (such as X Ray tech c school) to just get familiar with any specific Navy side stuff. For some NECs its required to have prior experience (Mortician). Homeboy DEPed in, went to A school, got to FMTB, picked orders at FMTB for Oki. Another was offered to go from reserves to active to be an x ray tech in a billet that opened up in his town.

Hell, as a reservist you can get the 20k bonus written in without FMTB attached if you're sneaky enough at MEPS like good ol man Bing did.

Probably a carrier. My berthing on the carrier had something like 60 dudes and that was a smaller berthing.

My division had to clean the head in our berthing area and there was a bunch of poo poo that we found in there. The worst we found in the shower was a pocket vag, a dildo, and a used condom.

One of the guys in my division back in the day used to beat it in the boatswain office and later up in the forward hold after he was banned from the office. Would just nut under the desk, not even attempt to wipe up or clean up, and go back to his business. SPACE HOMOS knows the guy I'm talking about. Nasty fucker.

I walked into a space late one night and couldn't find the watch. I called "hello?" not a big space, was about to go postal because I had BEGGED to get my guys on one-man watches on the tiger cruise and now he was missing. He was around the "corner" behind a cabinet jacking it into the trash can. Kept going, too. At least he used the can? (Pretty sure it was our ninja rag nutter, too, because it stopped when he left. He also picked and flicked while watching TV. Tons of boogers on the bull's eye. loving gross.)

Had a weird CHENG that would obliviously pick his nose during conversation, inspect the booger on his finger and roll it up/flick. He did this in a manner that seemed 100% unconscious and he became the laughingstock of the ship (DD, only a crew of about 300).

The only random jizz I saw was when I had to clean the loving disgusting shower mats :barf: :barf: :barf:

I KNOW THE JACKET!!!!!

Somebody left an old watch Jacket in one of our spaces, and somebody decided the best use of it was a beat-off rag, well, one of the old dudes in the division came in and saw the jacket and asked if he could have it, before anybody could answer, he put it on and strolled out.
