If that's the GCCS NEC, GCCS is on every surface combatant as far as I know, so DDGs/CGs/CGNs/LCS, and probably amphibs. Granted the small boys will probably have one GCCS billet. Additionally there are always job postings for GCCS techs. As someone who never dealt with GCCS until my civilian job, it seems to be a super easy system to work on, and you'll get HPUX experience.

Yeah I’m just repeating what he’s saying but he pretty much hates everything PneumonicBook posted:If that's the GCCS NEC, GCCS is on every surface combatant as far as I know, so DDGs/CGs/CGNs/LCS, and probably amphibs.

If it's gccs you can have ashore billets at commands that have gccs installed to coordinate with deployed units, but 99.9% will be afloat on ships. It's basically fancy maps and sensor stuff that breaks in hilarious ways.

orange juche posted:stuff that breaks in hilarious ways. This is my experience with literally all FC/ET/IT gear. It was worse on older gear where an entire card would be completely fine component wise, so you'd go to the backplane and everything there was fine, so you say gently caress it and swap out the suspected card with a known good, and not only does the swapped card work in the new system, the old broke card works when you put it in the other console/cabinet. PFM is an acronym for a reason.

You could do a lot worse than GCCS tech, def gonna get a lot of command visibility which is good if you're a go-getter rather than a slacker. If you're a hater or a miserable person it doesn't matter what your NEC is. And like the other poster said, I think GCCS is on almost every surface combatant. If you're a GCCS tech on a small boy you'll be doing non-GCCS stuff ~95% of the time anyways.

Kind of burying the lede there News4JAX https://twitter.com/the_sailor_dog/status/1083098710177914883 quote:JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A former commander of the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo Bay now stationed at NAS Jacksonville has been charged with obstructing justice and other offenses related to the 2015 death of a civilian who worked at the Cuban base.

Just got contacted about going back out the USNO for 60 days plus additional time to be determined. Ain’t gonna be a gravy train this time because I won’t be able to find as cheap a place to rent unless I get lucky with a AirBnB or another goon.

I mean everyone should be getting po1 indoc at least, not that it's very useful. Most should already have spent long enough as a second to know what to do.

I mean granted it was shortly after tragedy and there was a lot of other poo poo going on, but a sub 60% RoR test average is abysmal. Nav would give us random tests all the time on lastship. If you scored below 90% you had to go chat with nav and potentially the skipper about it. SWOS required 95% iirc. The fact that other FDNF wardrooms scored in the same ballpark is really shocking.

I mean. The piss bottles and trash might have been from hours of damage control work. If you're stuck at your position and the bathrooms are down because your ship is sinking you still gotta piss and eat. That line was from when Fort got on the ship hours after the incident. And kettlebells/assorted stuff like dip bars kinda seem normal in most workspaces I've been in.

Like it's not a shop like a CSER space or CSMC. The only.place the OS' could even put anything (on a cruiser) was the small closet that let us access the projectors for the large screens. If dudes are putting kettle bells behind consoles and poo poo that's hosed up and a good way to damage cables/pipes.

Those were big enough to toss some kettlebells in a corner for a slow watch.
