*shrug* It's a habit I picked up from martial arts, and if you know anyone whose semi-serious about soccer they tend to do it too. Some people are just that way naturally, my cousin looks like he's in a bouncy castle or something.

This. My oldest does it. My middle not so much. He walks like the “today I will sex!” cartoon. I’ve always tried to be light on my feet because I hate the stomping poo poo.

My worst kung fu instinct is to flip people over my soldier and dragon kicking them and then getting a fatality. It's a real big pain in the butt!

My new job doesn't start for another week or so, so obviously I'm still awake at three in the morning because I'm bored out of my mind.

While aimlessly surfing the internet, I found photos of myself in basic. :suicide:

Combination of habit plus it's never not funny spooking the poo poo out of people with how quiet you are.

Yup. I taught myself to walk quiet af as a kid and it just kind of got ingrained. I'm constantly "sneaking" up on people and scaring the poo poo out of them at work and stuff because even in 100 year old buildings I walk softly enough to not make the floors creak.

And yeah I've been told I look bouncy as gently caress walking down a hallway. Whatever.

I've always walked real quiet, and every roommate I've ever had has threatened to put bells on all my belts. Apparently there's nothing like a 6'4" bearded man suddenly and silently appearing in your peripheral vision a foot away from you to freak the gently caress out of someone.


And yeah, I've been told I walk "all weird" my entire life.

This will serve you well in corporate life. I do it all the time when I'm going for somewhere at work:

Meeting? Walk fast and look determined.
Lunch? Walk fast and look determined.
Going to spend 15 minutes on the shitter? Walk fast and look determined.

Greet people with a friendly wave and a look at your watch and you will be perceived as a go-getter no matter how much work you actually do.

I've toned down most of my harsher language but my no-bullshit attitude apparently is somewhat unique in my account. Apparently my 'yeah, we're not doing that' conversation with my client has spread around the higher ups in a positive way.

I don't understand anything about this world, four years into it.

This is loving hilarious for some reason.

And I work at a military contractor with a bunch of other crusty helicopter pilots/Crews so our language is pretty much exactly what it was on active duty.

We did get spoken to at one of the meetings that we should tone it down a bit, it was bothering some of the civilians who work here. That lasted like an hour at best.

I got fussed at for being direct about the challenges my department faces in my most recent quarterly report. Turns out higher ups only want to hear the good news.

I learned this in the Army. I went to an rear end chewing session and my first words were “I’m sorry, I made a mistake, how can I prove to you it won’t happen again?” And was chewed out harder for having a bad attitude.

Someone once told me “commanders don’t want to hear excuses, just say ‘roger’ and go and fix it.’”

Also it seems like Altered Carbon was meant for Vin Diesel. loving seriously, like a producer went to the casting agent with a list of 1) must sound like Vin Diesel 2) must fight like Vin Diesel 3) Must look like Vin Diesel 4) Cheap!

My direct supervisor is an army reserve officer.

All of my sham tactics from the army would transfer well if I hated this job. I could thumb my rear end all day just saying I'm fixing the inventory. Instead I'm doing rolling counts and reorganizing. This place is a loving mess of cardboard and haphazardly placed poo poo and I'm getting tired of the confusion.
