I would sooner chop my dick off than apply anything to it that was prescribed by a corpsman.

i was given a 7 pill z-pack, doc told me to eat 5 of them at the same time and throw the other 2 away. :boom: it worked.

Question for enlisted Goons:

When your DIVO has a job for you and he says "We need to take care of whatever task" when he of course really means you need to take care of it, is it more annoying than if he just comes right out and says "You need to do this" or does him saying "we" make you feel more like part of a team?

Asking for a friend.

Your divo shouldn't be loving giving orders to you unless you are the chief of that division or it's some kind of emergency or a 'pick up that can' sort of thing.

They really need to fix the fix they made to the eval system.

When I was in they were switching to what is used now, and before everyone HAD to get 4.0 across the board or no one had a shot at a promotion. Now you have to have that one wierd trick in your eval to get it.

Apparently they used to do that, and everyone just got a 4. That is unless you had someone who rated you based on the actual instruction and then screwed you by not giving you a 4.

It was pretty much this. If an E-5 or E-6 did not get all 4.0 on every eval they had nearly zero chance of picking up rank.

Japan is neat. Sasebo is way sleepier then Yoko, but that's fine by me. Japan is great for folks with no kids. There is a ton to see and do in country and lots of easy travel opportunities around the AOR.

I got drunk one night in Sasebo and hung out with 3 Japanese chicks bar hopping. 2 of them decided to go home and the 3rd one said 'Lets go back to your place'.

I loved Japan.

It amazed me how many dudes on my boat said they hated it. Because all they would do is go to the drat base clubs and maybe 1 bar just outside base. I was one of the few that would actually roam out and had a great time because of it. Yokohama owns. Roppungi owns. Shinjuku scared me Having a 90 year old dude whisper to me while pointing behind him 'libe show' .

The cool thing about loving up and starting at e-1 is realizing that you could have forced the recruiter to give you e-3 before you signed anything.

Hope you get e-5 first time you're up, took me 2 trys and I did the stupid starting at e-1 thing too. Never got paid for e-5 but I did get to waste a bunch of money changing my uniforms for it!
