Our chief was worthless and lpo was worse especially when it came to technical matters. We were a software development shop and out divo actually had a background in that so when it came to technical stuff he didn't trust the chief to relay information properly. Divo would talk to us directly until the chief threw a hissy fit about chain of command and then work slowly ground to a halt because he had no loving idea what we were doing. The miracle of email and leaving people out of the to line brought things back around.

I work with a handful of goons but haven't met up with any of them. I overheard a discussion at work in VA between two goons talking about GiP, but I don't know who they were either offline or online. The DLI sperg thread would indicate that at least eight goons work at the same location as me, but if that's the case I probably don't like them as offline people already.

I flew out to meet my boat on deployment and they gave me a hotel room of my own when I got to the port. I met up with some boat dudes who I had never met and we all went drinking (OBVIOUSLY). At some point during the night one of the dudes disappeared telling us he had an appointment at a tattoo parlor. He returned about 30 minutes later and we continued partying. Near the end of the night he said he didn't want to go back to the boat and asked if he could stay in my hotel room. I assumed this is the point I get raped as part of submarine initiation so I said yes. When I woke up in the morning this dude was passed out face down in the bathroom. I kicked him awake and when he stood up his crotch was covered in blood. Dude went and got his dick pierced and drank lots of alcohol which made the bleeding worse. One of the most traumatic things I've seen.

He ended up getting kicked out for having the HIV which is probably related to his pierced dick and love of whores.

welp thats my story.

The speed that the Navy moves admin is sometimes terrifying, terrifying slow....

Still waiting for someone somewhere in the states to stamp my SUBDQ paperwork, so I can finally be released from the submarine community. But because it's taking so long, it's time to go back to "Fit for Full" and fend off orders until my force conversion is processed which can only happen once SUBDQ is finalized. I've also been the one driving this entire process, paperwork and all, I would hate for someone to actually have to rely on other people to finish this. Although I'm sure my current ECM will be happy to get rid of me(extremely overmanned), then after that it's time to poke ECMs for anyone that will take me, fighting for CTN, CT(Whatever) then IT, being a first class makes it kinda of pain in the rear end though. Any CT's willing to vouch for me?

tl;dr: the navy sucks at paperwork and it's own programs, no way a junior sailor could get though this without inadvertently loving himself over...

Yo it took me a full year to get SUBDQ but I was a stupid 3rd class (and this was 2008) and just waited for everything to happen. If you a first class you should be good for CTN cross rate. I dunno the ins and outs because I'm a filthy civilian and don't keep up with that poo poo anymore.

A dude I was in boot and now am in A-school with has a wiccan girlfriend or fiancee or something and she doesn't believe in medicine or marriage so they have to have the spirit of a tree bind them in matrimony with sticks or shrubs or something.

In the event he gets an infection from said binding he'll probably be better off with Wiccan healing than going to medical though, so I guess that's a plus

Since the 9ARBpocalypse, we've got sailors taking SP evals for not having IDW (if you're within 6 months of DNQ) and then disenrolling from the IDW program because they were already told they can't re-enlist so there's no point anyway in having a better eval or having IDW. It's driving the chief's mess to boiling fury.

True story though, they're telling us at quarters now that contractors and the DoD won't hire us if we don't have IDW and they managed to tell us this with straight faces.

Analogical isn't at our command though. He ends up there TAD for months at a time which makes it kind of hard to get books signed and find partners to board with. But yea, from 0 to qualified I would say it shouldn't take more than 2 months. It's a great feeling having all that poo poo out of the way, but I definitely don't feel like I'm qualified for anything. I probably forgot everything I memorized the week after I had my final board. I can guarantee I would fail the written exam if I was tasked with taking it right now. What they should do is require you to get your pin before you can shop up. People are in holding for so long anyways, usually just loving off and dodging out of work after lunch muster.

There is a huge, HUGE difference between someone picked up for Chief, and someone picked up for O6 or a star. For all intents and purposes, the military considers O6+ to be senior officers which comes with additional trappings. I'd say use of "Sel" would be warranted, especially depending on billet/position.

edit: but yes, in 99.998% of use cases its completely ridiculous and most O's I know do not do it because LOTS of ridicule would ensue.
