i'm so glad I wasted 12 years of my life on the Army so I have no IRL friends or family or anything to interact with so that my only source of communication with the outside world is a thread about the loving army dear god I should have just killed myself when it was more appealing

Like life didn't loving blow enough putting up with the barracks, you got roped into the bullshit part of being married with none of the freedoms of signing a contract marriage with a local stripper.

I hated that it was mandatory for either me or my wife. Like, you know, if you want people to show up you could make them interesting or something that people might want to show up? Or you could give us an hour class about how to file taxes and tell us about the tax center on post which is manned by E3s after a week long course so they can fill out a 1040EZ for you and your fat rear end wife with a household income of about $25k but what do I know

On the other hand there's some ranges that are technically part of JBLM but are on the side of a public road that runs parallel to the base on north fort. Just wait until some dorks set up for a range and then point and laugh yelling gently caress you if you're still in. I dunno I'm just making this poo poo up as I go we don't have to do any of that

is BLC a new WLC being an NCO is pretty easy if you treat people with dignity or however you would like to be treated (golden rule) instead of making arbitrary and dumb decisions based on "back when you were a private" type bullshit childrens games

Would it be against some rule to soap it up on your windows? Or what if your rear window said something like CSM's Love Dongs!!! so it wouldn't necessarily be against some "decency" law?

Just worry about taking care of your dudes and everything else will take care of itself, because even if you don't care too much about next weeks FTX, some of those dudes do care and want to do well. Keep them out of the dumb poo poo as much as possible and they'll make you look good.

Nothing's funnier than watching tryhard SNCOs on a brigade staff attempt to boss around a bunch of CW4s and O4s that don't give a poo poo.

Hey what's wrong with a 6 month PCS besides the fact that everyone else in the entire loving world would consider it loving nuts to move your family somewhere for six months before moving them across the world six months later? Oh, is that a problem? Well then you can go solo, gently caress your dwell time. I hate that I've been out for years but army stuff can still make me a little mad

There's a shop like a few miles from my house offering ten dollar grams everyday. I used to pay 30 a quarter but that was swag. I'm sure this poo poo will put my dick in the dirt. As soon as I get that DD214 I'm going straight to the shop
