Hey you designed it, I just did the vector trace. Send it my way again (sirlucius at gmail.com).

Angry Fish is an enormous pos so really no one should be happy about him getting those bennies. Panda the normal stg girl I was talking about is a long way out of the navy so it couldn't have been you. E: I mean good for you though, who knows maybe the navy made you the way you are.

Also, it struck me that you haven't gotten the last coin you helped make so I'll have to send you one of those when I send this next one out.

It was personalized. That's why it sucks. I mean, if I still had it, it would just be in a drawer in my bedroom with my coins and other small poo poo I kept, but I still wish I had it.

There's a lot of kiddies showing up wanting it and some idiots are giving med separations to them I guess to not get the media into it? I don't know, I guess it's archaic to have medical benefits for people that have actually lost limbs or functionality in their life because of injuries through their service and the new thing is to give it to every kid that turns up with a problem with what they're told to do because mommy and daddy didn't set an example of "You do as you're told when you've signed a contract agreeing to it." AN Douchebag gets separate and collects benefits for being a whiny oval office, meanwhile Sgt Deployments is still waiting to get treated for the shrapnel slowly digging through his body while in pain. Honestly commands need to understand that they can administratively separate anyone they drat well please, and if some kid didn't disclose to the Navy that they had X problem before coming in it's not the government's problem to have to pay them for it. In other news, apparently my BAH request that has been sitting around for nearly five months is going to sit around some more because people are magically leaving the barracks at a faster rate than they're being replaced, but my chit along with the chits of 2 higher enlisted dudes are still waiting to get signed. The investigation into someone borrowing money from everyone she can get her rank and fingers around is still "going on", which the last time we heard that it was swept under the rug until someone tore the rug up and brought it up again after a potluck was involved. With the holidays, I doubt anything will happen, while the lower enlisted that gave money are keeping quiet because this is the nature of the Navy, among other shady poo poo that happens but no one ever says a drat thing. In other news, I apparently have a new pet that'll be staying in an apartment with a friend.

Edit: Also congratulations, Christoff, on finally getting out of the Navy. Hope you have a better time outside than you did in. Edit2: Lol, I love seeing command coins/shirts that are misspelled in obvious ways, especially with the amount of money dumped on them.

If you can get someone in supply dumb enough to order them for you, though, they're free. Good luck. Coins are supposed to be on lock-down since every dipshit CMC and commodore thinks they should have some to give out.

ActusRhesus posted:Ah Graf. And they still let her retire as an O6. I'm sure everybody here heard all the stories about poo poo she did. I heard them from across the pier when I was out in 7th Fleet (and some of their JOs cross-decked to us to qual while they were getting their cracked shaft fixed). She was generally a terrible, terrible woman to pretty much everybody but E4 and below. For whatever reason, she treated junior enlisted like gold but would throw cups of coffee at XO, choke of DHs, and put Master Chiefs in time-out (like physically make them go stand in a corner in CIC). Yea.

So it looks like the quarterdeck watch has pissed off enough departments that they're going back to it being staffed by those stuck in holding. This was pretty much the best news and now I can't use "gently caress duty days" as an excuse for getting out of the Navy. But seriously, gently caress duty days, they have no point at an intel command.

But seriously, gently caress duty days, they have no point at an intel command. South hasn't figured that out yet. We stand watch practically monthly and it makes no sense that the loving holdees don't do it since they do jack poo poo anyway for like three months and we get them weekly. The other chain doesn't even care if we worked mids, your rear end comes in for day shift with a two hour adjustment. Stupidest poo poo. Reasoning for it is that we "don't act Navy enough" -CMC-that-came-from-the-fleet-and-isnt-and-has-never-worked-intel They shake their heads at us like we're faggots for not appreciating Navy customs. If you want me to be a sailor then put me on a ship you stupid fucks.

This was pretty much the best news and now I can't use "gently caress duty days" as an excuse for getting out of the Navy. But seriously, gently caress duty days, they have no point at an intel command. Try standing it every week, in an empty hospital, "watching" a bunch of automated electronics while you're getting yelled at by JOs because you're paging them in the middle of the day from said hospital because "I'm not in the hospital today." They have such a hard-on for the Real Navy here that I think they set up pointless watches just to make it look like we matter. gently caress duty days. gently caress rule bending based on rank. gently caress getting chewed out because you said that the system is flawed, even with a proposed method to fix it. gently caress people coming in complaining to me that the ER closed on base and now they have to go pay out of pocket (oh god no) for motrin for their stubbed toe. loving LOL at the fact that their plan for the galley closing is to give the money to a restaurant on base (which is going to put a limited selection of food items on the menu for people with meal cards and you don't get breakfast and lol gently caress you if you work any shift that isn't days) instead of giving it to sailors. gently caress crooked evals system. gently caress paper chits. gently caress douchebags that change the time stamps and coversheets on a chit to make it look like it wasn't sitting in their office for almost a year. gently caress people saying "There's worse places out there." without using their power to change broken instructions. gently caress one rank getting treated one way and another rank a different way even though it's a "Zero Tolerance" Navy.

I'm in the final stretch Pneumonic, February 2016. All in all, a waste of the tax payer's money. Boot Camp, A-School, 2 C-schools, all coming together to spend time at 1 command hardly doing anything I was trained to do. Oh well, at least I got a sweet cert. Still have to send an email to the recruitment agent for the prison to see what they need from me apart from a resume. I was thinking of transferring my experiences over to it with a timeline of training, scanned attachments of certifications, and my various cards for BLS and poo poo. Apart from applying to fast food when I was a kid, I have no experience doing it for tech work.
