Sir Lucius posted:Match violence with violence, match words with words. The poo poo kid should be punched for jumping all over peoples' backs. If he's just talking poo poo you can just say something mean. In fact, people don't kill themselves over losing a fight, but if you can make them feel worthless enough with something you say they sometimes do. Did you know words really can hurt? The other kid hit hers first. He was saying the slurs and threw the first punch. Her kid is in trouble because his response was beating the poo poo out of the little bastard.

You should passively aggressively assault him about it. Put up posters with diagrams on every bulletin board he walks past every day. Do poo poo to subtly gently caress with him.

Also, if there's a group of officers just hold the salute until you're past them. You don't have to raise and drop your arm for each of them. However, unless they're in formation, each of them is supposed to return the salute.

If you take orders to shore duty, you have two years minimum and one year for sea duty. If you're obligation ends after you're current tour is supposed to, you'll just stay on station until you're done.

Howard Phillips posted:Can you contact VA prior to getting out to determine exact Post 9/11 GI Bill eligibility? This would help me a lot in planning so I'm not wasting a year waiting to "school up" after separation. Are you an officer or enlisted? Have you served more than 36 months active service since 9/11/2001? If you're an O and they paid for your school, your 36 month counter doesn't begin until after your obligation is up (4-5 years typically). If you're enlisted and have been longer than 3 years, you've got 100% so long as you get honorably discharged. Like dustynuts said, you can request your eligibility letter through ebenefits.

Ignore the montgomery GI bill. I'm not sure that 35 months enlisted will be enough for the post 9/11 at 100%, but I can't say for sure. USNA, iirc, has a 5 year obligation. The best I could figure is you'll need 5 years 1 month as an officer to get the full amount, but I am by no means certain of this. If you don't already have an ebenefits account, go make one https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/ebenefits/homepage EDIT: I say ignore the MGIB because it's nowhere near as useful as the post 9/11. You'll get your $1200 back after you've exhausted all your post 9/11 benefits. Mr. Nice! fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Apr 1, 2015 |

Yeah you gotta know the basics of ship driving at a minimum before you can really be in command of one. Although it is funny to think of pilots driving, it's a necessary evil. Granted, I don't think any ever will actually ever do it much after qualifying, it isn't at all crazy for them to do it.

SNCOs are certainly treated a bit different, but not quite to the private treefort that the chiefs have built themselves. Officer/Enlisted separations are a bit different story, but there should be some more fluidity between them. Ultimately, middle management does serve some purpose and shouldn't be abolished entirely.

The fundraisers all go into mess funds. You're providing alcohol for chief parties. Also I think the difference in uniform allowances all comes down to the hat. Men have to buy a combo cover. Women just have to buy a khaki top and the anchor so they save at least $70 on that alone. Addtionally, their dress blues translate over but I'm sure the quality of the boot camp issued dress blues aren't at all what they expect the Chiefs to wear.

My only contribution to the mess was when a few of us poker players from the wardroom would go down there to play cards. The look on the XO's face when our CSO answered the door to the chief's mess was great. He really didn't give a poo poo, but advised that a chief should probably answer. I think one of the selects got chewed out for that in the end. Anyways, there was a donation required to play so I pitched in. Then the CMC never actually paid out any of the winnings that the wardroom won and took off with about $350 of our money when he was air-lifted off the ship a couple days later. When we were lined up to pipe him off and he walked by to shake everyone's hands, he whispered in my ear "I still got your money" and left. gently caress that guy.

Speaking of bilking junior sailors for money, a former BMC that SPACE HOMOS and I know was kicked out of the mess because he was borrowing money from E4s and below in port calls so his wife wouldn't know what he was spending. Then he never paid them back and did everything he could to keep them from reporting. Luckily the BM1 there knew he was a piece of poo poo (he really was) and took care of it when it came to his attention.

Boon posted:Surprisingly, the draft of the BB isn't significantly different than the CG or DDG, however, yes. Also there are multiple turns including a fairly large one right out of the basin itself which a ship at flank would be hard pressed to maintain due to shallow-water drag. The channel is short enough I don't think they'd ever get to actual flank speed in it, but yeah they would certainly squat and probably bottom out a few times at best.

At this point you should stick it out to 20, MML. You can go be a terminal O-5 at some joint command doing fuckall but sitting in an office to wrap it up. It's not like you need to go back to sea for command because you don't give a gently caress about admiral.

There was a cook on the ship with SPACE HOMOS and I. Guy would go on and on about his girlfriend. Turns out his girlfriend was just a hooker at a nearby brothel. To add insult to injury, he never actually hosed her and had just been loving her thighs. He was pissssssed when he learned what sex really was.

This is the same guy that got a bunch of cranks and a couple cooks sent to mast as well. They had been playing the ball tapping game in the galley. He wanted to be involved. They convinced him that they would collectively give him $50 to let the biggest CS on the ship punch him squarely in the balls. He agrees, gets punched, and they all welch. He goes to doc and complains about a sore stomach and asked for Motrin. HM1 grilled him for a half hour before he finally spills the beans.

No that's not the T-shirt commodore. That's just a former CO of mine when I was enlisted and he was kindof a dick to deal with when I was in Hawaii. He's part of the leadership team that caused multiple officers to mentally snap. One department head got removed from the ship after a breakdown. A former baby SWO I know got diagnosed with PTSD from dealing with him when he was XO waiting to fleet up. Just funny to me that he got sacked for having a toxic command.
