because they're jubilant to be out of a job they didn't like, that's a fine thing to be happy about and tell other people about

I know everyone is mad at the civs for bragging about it but you know what was weird? the other day when my boss said "hey do you need any overtime to get anything done?" and I said "nah I'm good next week" and she said "cool, let me know if anything changes"

also the fact that I get paid for it now changes a lot

Oh, is that what it is? I totally didn't get that the first time around.

Again, re-read what I loving posted. You don't get to make jokes about the Navy - officers or otherwise - until you're actually loving in it. None of what you said went above my head, but clearly the point I was trying to convey went way over yours.

good post

So, for a normal change of command, they usually make a big ceremony out of it (at least ashore), where the outgoing and incoming COs read their orders and give speeches and there's cake and all that. What do they do in cases like this? Do it at morning quarters? All hands email? Not say anything and suddenly there's just the deputy commodore up there driving the boat one day?

Note it in the log, pass it at quarters that the people were relieved, and then pretend like it didn't happen and go nuts when the spouse association starts posting random details from whatever incident started all of it

does the reserve tricare work like prime remote where you get to see real doctors or does it mean a trip to the local mtf every time? cuz maybe it's me but that's not really worth $200/mo then again my employer subsidizes a lot of my healthcare so w/e

You're paid strictly by the number of hours you spend drilling. The biggest unit at my Reserve center does 4 musters per day to make sure that everyone is still there. I'm not exaggerating. Morning muster, pre-lunch, post-lunch, end-of-day.

You can set it up for direct withdrawal from your checking. If you miss a payment, they cut it off for the rest of the year.


It's whatever Tricare Standard is. I go to the MTF because it's right down the road from me. They cover most other specialist things it seems.

so typical HMO + you'll be seen by a corpsman not anyone actually qualified to see someone. so in the real world for $200/mo you can probably get at least slightly better than that and have the bonus of continuity of care and not being told you're making poo poo up.

not trying to poo poo on the reserves specifically, but I wouldn't use tricare STANDARD as a selling point there, bud
