Okay, clarify something for an ignorant aviator: on a five-and-dime watch rotation, does that mean that each individual person is standing watch every 5 hours in 15, or does that just mean that each duty section has to cover watches during that period, and individual people don't necessarily get a watch each time. Because if it's the former, I don't understand how a human being from the planet Earth could possibly think that's a good way to do business.

That's where you do 6 hours on, 6 hours off. If it's working hours, you're working when you're off watch. I have gone days without sleep and didn't think that much of it.

My favorite part was when they wouldn’t let me get qual’d to relieve some of the burden on you two bastards, like I was already up there babysitting my idiots for 8 hours how bad could it have been having me stand that watch too? Second favorite part was when they took the most incompetent watch standers and made then stand air, sure Fc1 you can barely handle CSC, air should be no problem for you!

Irt fat navy, this might just be a case of senior leadership listening to commanding officers who have said repeatedly that you're making me fire good techs and because of minimal manning you gave me four guys: two of which are fat and two of which are capable of basic math (spoiler: they're the same two guys). It seems inevitable to me that some COs have been in the position that if CFL doesn't pretend this PRT failure didn't happen, the ship will fail to sail the moment its radar irreparably breaks and because of PERS, they wont have a replacement for four years. But you can't fire ET3 Illiterate because there isn't a semi-annual reading comprehension exam.

I was just thinking about some of the people I served with who broke new ground in being fuckups and kept the spotlight off of idiots like me who were just bad at Navy. One guy broke a toilet after trying to flush an apple. And then there was the time a guy decided to use a four day weekend to drive to Maine, from San Diego to visit family. And then there was a guy who had some sort of storage unit or something on base and was keeping a pet cat in there, and he either got caught or the cat died.

We're going to have to find something else to separate him for now. One thing that some of the squadrons would do was send people in to Mental Health on a command directed evaluation. The sailor got evaluated, we looked for what was their lack of motivation doing something, etc. After so many attempts, it was an adsep through whatever diagnosis they had, most being an adjustment disorder. The DH of Mental Health isn't the one that drafts the separation stuff, it falls on the command, but the staff can help find out why this dude is just walking and failing on purpose.

Boon posted:Our bridge watches routinely were five and dimes because "it wasnt fair to other watch-stations" if we went to four-section rotations. This happened all the time on the small boys I've been on in Eng Dept. The last one though all our watch stations were on 4 section rotation, with EOOW's on 5 or 6. Life was good on that ship.

The circadian watch cycle folks at NPS say five and dimes is the absolute worst watch rotation. So of course SWOs love it. The DESRON folks on deployment with me went to this rotation for a while and they were zombies about 3 days in.

I think the attraction to five and dimes rests in the shared motivation watch teams get to qualify additional watch standers and rotate them through secretly before the senior watch officer finds out, then pretend you didn't know any better. I think I'd rather be 6 on 6 off with every third day off so I could legit rack out for ten hours. We did four section circadian rhythm for a bit. It was awesome. Someone figure out how to keep it going in port and use your leadership to distribute info and manage cleanliness so you don't waste the reduced co-working time that is a requirement in meetings and clampdowns.
