I have to sign back in from 2 weeks of leave today and it makes me feel terrible. I had a nightmare that I signed in and immediately got put on staff duty.

But, of course, to make it MORE WACKY, the MC threw changes into the skits and hosed up their music. Hahahaha, what's funnier than a skit with hosed up cues?!

Getting drunk at Army functions is always great IMO. Usually no one fucks with you, and sometimes cool poo poo happens. Like I walked out of a party wearing a lieutenant's dress uniform. A South African Lieutenant.

our 1st sgt at the only military ball I attended put all E-1/E-2 that could drink on his tab. The bartenders didn't know how to differentiate rank and they didn't card us. 1st sgt probably broke the following morning. Army Strong gooah

Offering to pay for a bunch of people's drinks at a military ball? Might as well just go buy a car at Army Base Auto if you're gonna be that stupid.

well it was an infantry unit, and national guard to boot. It's not like the average I.Q was hitting triple digits in that place.

Only time I got drunk at a Army function was when I pulled color guard for a memorial ceremony on Bragg. My Lt. Let us drink on his tab.

When I was on Embassy Duty, me and the Gunny from MSG were the last ones to leave a reception at the Ambassador's residence. We basically drank all the beer we could in two hours.

I like how at Army functions the last door prize they hand out is the DUI to a senior leader after you've already gone home as soon as it was reasonable to do so.

I just helped my girlfriend out with some homework where she had to learn about Microsoft Access. The homework involved setting up forms to make tables that had data like names and phone numbers and addresses, etc. My first thought was that that would've been handy to know when I was the paper bitch in my platoons updating PII in excel when access is so much easier once you know how to use it.

one of the first classes i took at my school was a microsoft office class and access was one of the portions of it. i didn't even know what access was beforehand but yeah i can definitely see how it would benefit platoons. still a pain in the dick to learn though but that might be because i was ridiculously uninterested at the time.

My shop is split up working night shift, swing shift, and a few on days. Worked fine for a year where we'd just work out on our own after work whenever that was and take the apft when required. Then four people failed (one guy failed 2 separate events and got a 12! on one event) so here we are. Stupid people like this are why we get treated like kids. They don't even know how good we have it where I'm at. I kniw, I know. gently caress me 'cause I'm still in.

I was grading a dude when I was still in, and he heard me count the minimum number and stood up. For PU and SU. Command was PISSED. He was like "what? I passed."

Change the PT test to P/F and watch the entire army burn down.

Reminds me of when my CSM had a loving meltdown when we had a week long NCOPD. We had a not for record APFT and half of us just did the bare minimum and got up. I was the unlucky one that CSM caught when I got up at at 57 sit ups. After he found out I only did 45 push up and my reasoning was "It wasn't for record CSM" he freaked out. About being unprofessional, how NCOs had to always give it 100%, lack of discipline, and all this other poo poo. Then I got chewed out by my E7 1SG and PSG all goddamn day for not even barely 200 on that APFT
