That's nothing to beat someone up over. If I had a nickel every time I heard a black sailor use that word I'd be rich. If I had a nickel for every time I hear a white sailor friend say it in the company of said black sailors I could fill up a sock. It's frustrating.

Nothing will suprise me about Navy medicine after they cut out a hemorrhoid but didnt think any pain meds other than a shot right before the cut was needed. I needed some meds. Badly.

I hear as a MA all that ID checking experience nets you a pretty sweet job as a walmart greeter, or maybe even a sam's club receipt checker. k9 units get to be mall cops! I overheard a chief giving a pep talk to a group of 15 restricted sailors that going to the fleet undesignated wasn't so bad because now they get to see more jobs and maybe IT or CT wasn't for them anyways.

It defines (so it can outlaw) sexual activity (on base). Actually they didnt explain it in my class and nobody asked the chief questions. They just asked me after he left instead so I got to explain that digital penetration was not putting iphones in each others hoohahs. Got to explain the difference between rape and sexual assault too. I love these kids.

The enlisted Marines here are extremely polite and seem like a good enough bunch. I feel sorry for them though because they muster every night for cleaning and are forced to do something terrible they call "Pee Tee" every day. It look awful and I'm so glad we don't have anything remotely like that here.

bengy81 posted:Evals in civilian jobs are dumb too. The difference is that your eval is rarely used for anything beyond taking space on a HR managers hard drive. Yup. I got a perfect "ten" on a eval at my old company but got passed for a ten year younger Marine reservist with barely a year in the company and a so-so review. The branch manager (marine reservist officer) told me he wanted to go in a different direction with his management team. Evals mean poo poo. Be sure to blow your management team and add a rimjob if you know what's good for you. Nothing's different in the real world you guys. I showed them though. I joined the Navy!

We didn't have any accidents with our trucks and managed to not lose any money in transit for a six month so we got bagels for breakfast and an atta boy one day but the food came after the morning crews left for the day so our version of POGS ate it all and we got stale food nine hours after. I'm assuming the navy is similar but without the food or atta boys.

Gay is the only way in the new Nav-ay! Actually I mean the walking to the compound is a bitch. The actual 1.5 mile run in running shoes is easy and I get a 1100 to 1200 even injured (I'm allotted 15 minutes). So... one of my dep pool future sailors just showed up at Corry three weeks ago and she got caught getting the D already. Her dicks roommate walked in on them and turned them in. Kinda of a jerk move but drat it they could have just hopped on a bus to the main station and rented a hotel room. Corry really just needs a hotel of its own.

I met quite a few goons from TFR. Went to desert shoot with around 20 of them. Over all not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Only met one on a separate occasion who was a near disaster. Scared me enough to not want to go shooting with random strangers anymore.

Nah, big book of navy medicine consider heel spurs to be painful but pretty much nothing else. Just takes time and rest to go away. Chances of surgery are almost zero. I can still waddle the mile and half in under 12 minutes (navy wants me to do it in under 15).
