Verbal? I have BLATANT disregard homie; that poo poo gets put on paper.

I've met my share of OK mechanics though. Normally redneck kids who didn't have the cash to go to UTI or Wyo-Tech or wherever and wanted to get certified as diesel mechanics.

The smartest of that group got out after his run and instead of getting ASE certified used his GI Bill to get a mechanical engineering degree from a good school and now he just designed conveyor belt layouts for UPS and makes 6 figures a year for doing it

We don't. There's a reason why most of us are depressed/alcoholics/bitterly divorced.

The dumpster thing really happened. Recycling was not optional at this base--apparently it was something enforced by the local government and people would get fined for finding recyclables in the normal trash. If there's one thing the Army doesn't like, it's spending money LOLOLOL, so we suffered for it. Well, our NCOs suffered for it. Because how dare you allow your Joe to throw a soda bottle in the dumpster?!

Then we suffered for it.

One of my friends is currently in AIT to be a blackhawk mechanic/crew chief whatever the gently caress that MOS is called. 6 year commitment. Still don't understand how OCS contract is only a 3.5 year commitment but it works for me.

He's an old rear end PFC in his late 20's but at least he's not a combat arms old rear end PFC in his late 20's. Him joining the Army was actually good for him though, he didn't have anything going for him back home. Hopefully former blackhawk maintainers have good career opportunities after the Army.

The oldest PFC I knew was 40 something and had meth mouth. He apparently got in trouble a lot with finances and drinking. He eventually got chaptered for for something

Basically that's about the length of time they want to get out of most officers before they start trickling out. Too many staying in is very, very bad. The long commitments for certain jobs is because that training is loving expensive and time-consuming, so they want to make sure they get the money's worth.

I was never in the military but I worked the opposite watch on a merchant ship from two guys who had been and hated each other for it - the first assistant was a Strategic Sealift Officer or whatever so technically in the Navy but he had a big beard and a paunch and looked like a dirtbag 99% of the time (also an all around great engineer and really chill guy), and the electrician was a Marine vet who hated that guy (and also kind of all of us civilians) so much for his dirtbag ways that he eventually got fired for flipping out at him about it every single day for weeks and creepily staring at people from his office window.

Those two models come standard with every boat, except for the military background. You also get an engineer who's weirdly obsessed with the sewage bacteria and a fastidious mate who does everything by hand, free with every second ship you buy.

Yeah for a while we had two creepy freakout guys, but they both got fired for creepily freaking out all the time. The other one had been in the Army but I don't think that had anything to do with him.

edit: I suspect the Navy has way more types of standard-issue weirdo lurking around, they have to right, they have like hundreds or thousands of people on a ship instead of 12 dudes.

If you really think about it, prostitution is just about massaging certain spots with certain spots, if you know what I mean.

Training crew chiefs is expensive, it's a very cool job and people generally don't gently caress with you, you get flight pay, you get to bullshit with officers and warrants all day and nobody cares as long as you can do your job correctly. Downsides are promotions are poo poo above I think E5 or so, and your body will be murdered by the accumulated microvibrations of years spent on helicopters. I don't know, all the crew chiefs I met seemed pretty happy.
