There was an SK on the boat who I swear had some kind of downs syndrome or autism. If you listen to O&A, he talked exactly like BoBo.

Before Mr. Nice got medically separated, he worked for a captain who wound up burning him for over a grand for DESRON T-shirts, by saying that he had never authorized the purchase, even though he told Mr. Nice to purchase the shirts.

No that's not the T-shirt commodore. That's just a former CO of mine when I was enlisted and he was kindof a dick to deal with when I was in Hawaii. He's part of the leadership team that caused multiple officers to mentally snap. One department head got removed from the ship after a breakdown. A former baby SWO I know got diagnosed with PTSD from dealing with him when he was XO waiting to fleet up. Just funny to me that he got sacked for having a toxic command.

Thanks guys! I will be doing consulting work for a company that does SAP Human Capital Management module implementation. I think I surprised them when I said that I was looking forward to the travel to client sites. I haven't been able to travel as much the last three year, due mainly to budget issues, and that has made me a bit listless.

The smart move is to drive and park nearby and ride a bicycle through the gate to work. Or stock up on audio books I guess.
