I was talking with one guy about good places to go for dinner, and the high point was "well, there's a Chili's in town..." Not to say there aren't some hidden gems to be found, but if there are, you're gonna have to dig for them.

The speed that the Navy moves admin is sometimes terrifying, terrifying slow.... Still waiting for someone somewhere in the states to stamp my SUBDQ paperwork, so I can finally be released from the submarine community. But because it's taking so long, it's time to go back to "Fit for Full" and fend off orders until my force conversion is processed which can only happen once SUBDQ is finalized. I've also been the one driving this entire process, paperwork and all, I would hate for someone to actually have to rely on other people to finish this. Although I'm sure my current ECM will be happy to get rid of me(extremely overmanned), then after that it's time to poke ECMs for anyone that will take me, fighting for CTN, CT(Whatever) then IT, being a first class makes it kinda of pain in the rear end though. Any CT's willing to vouch for me? tl;dr: the navy sucks at paperwork and it's own programs, no way a junior sailor could get though this without inadvertently loving himself over...

Yo it took me a full year to get SUBDQ but I was a stupid 3rd class (and this was 2008) and just waited for everything to happen. If you a first class you should be good for CTN cross rate. I dunno the ins and outs because I'm a filthy civilian and don't keep up with that poo poo anymore.

Pint & Jigger is some attempt at a british pub, and I have no loving clue what M is, but it's probably another lovely club.

NAVADMIN actually put out their thing recently of peeps they need to go active from reserves, and most of the intel rates were on there, including IS. made me strongly consider putting in my active duty package but after consideration IDK why not just mobilize instead and get the best of both worlds

Null Integer posted:The speed that the Navy moves admin is sometimes terrifying, terrifying slow.... If you're anything but an E4, good luck going CTN. I've been fighting to cross over as an E5 and unless you're YG 08/09, there's hardly any billets right now and the few available take an interview with a CTNCS, NCC and a final talk with the TechAd. TechAd isn't even considering people without current IT certs or documented college with a CS/CYB degree plan. Not sure what it looks like for E6s though you could check CWAY for conversion-IR quotas. CTN will swallow you faster than an E2 boot if you're an E4 though.
