I'd read it. I have a morbid fascination with prisons and poo poo so I like reading all that stuff. Vicariously anyways. I don't think I would survive in prison. Not like raped wise but I'm sure I'd get shanked for flipping out on the wrong person.

Nostalgia t.v. Chat: Nickelodeon G.U.T.S. made the horrible choice to font all the contestants with first and last names. I know this because a few years ago we found out that like 70% of them are On Facebook and 0% like being reminded that they ate poo poo on the Agrocrag and lost to a girl.

I got a call from a civilian contractor at Dobbins ARB today. We're doing certification testing for the Air Force, and she's our internal proctor (basically the person who logs the candidates into the testing system and makes sure they don't cheat). She was asking for the login info for the candidates, because she was trying to get them started on testing. The testing is scheduled for tomorrow. The Master Sergeant in charge was told that we had scheduled testing for Thursday and the registration list with login info would be sent to the proctor the day before. He decided to just order her to get the guys started on testing Wednesday anyway, despite her being incapable of logging anyone into the system. Also we had them fill out registration forms for all the candidates. The first page of the form has all of the contact and test site info and a box for one candidate's information, and the second page has space for 2 candidates' information. Our contact had a different MSgt. fill out the forms, and he just filled out the first page for a single person and left the second page blank so the ensuing stack of paper ended up 3x as large as it had to be, full of blank pages.

If you're already a veteran and you seriously think this is a good career move, you're stupid as hell. If you have veteran's preference and a pulse, apply for every single fire job on USAJOBs. You may not get one in your state, but you'll get a GS2-GS3 position easy as hell. They don't give a poo poo if you already have a red card and faller's license because it takes like a week to train those. Take IS-100, IS-200, and IS-700 online and you'll already be ahead of the curve. CPR, seriously? Every organization anywhere teaches that in an afternoon. You have a degree, so you could pick up some lovely GS4/GS5 seasonal position no problem, again, if you're willing to work anywhere. Training is not the hard part for any of the basic wilderness skills things. Even WFR you can usually pick up for free or cheap at end of season in most land management agencies, and all the fire and basic first aid stuff is part of seasonal training. If you're not a veteran and just a fat goon, you probably still would be better off doing something else than conservation corps for experience and to lose fat. Conservation corps is just to give people too stupid for the military six months of work experience so they can get a job at Walmart.
