Did they ever figure out why your nuts hurt so bad Mr. Nice? They fix that poo poo or are you just living with ball pain? Sorry for once calling your condition Cerebral Ballsy.

The Valley Stared posted:While this wasn't unexpected, it still hurts in a lot of ways. I talked to one of the other officers from the ship (not one being charged) and both of us are just trying to process this more then anything. How was this not unexpected? Was there talk of charges during the investigation or something? I’m really rather surprised that you weren’t surprised by this. What’s your opinion on the charges, out of curiosity?

The Valley Stared posted:Agreed on the SWO stuff. The training is not nearly what it needs to be, for sailors or officers. Apparently its getting better towards hands on learning again, but the fleet still has a along way to go before we really start to reap the benefits of that. You thinking about making a career out of the navy, or are you gonna transition to the Civilian sector? Not a loaded question, I was a career guy. Air Force though, not navy. My parents were career navy.

Mr. Bad Guy posted:The very first complaint I got as an instructor was for "talking down" to them. I've gotten complaints about not explaining things slowly or in-depth enough, too. I've gotten complaints about being "too chummy" and "not approachable". You really have no business being an instructor. I’m sure you do well in your rate on a ship, but you aren’t cut from the right cloth to be a formal instructor. You are kinda retarded, to be totally honest.

Just hate suicide + attempts at humor about suicide by people that aren’t being particularly funny. If someone dug hard enough I’m sure they could find me joking about suicide in the past, but I lost someone to suicide (again) a few months back and I’m probably just being a sensitive bitch, so feel free to ignore me, I’m actually not trying to start an argument or anything. I’ll leave the navy thread for the sailors.

IS is a great rate, I worked for IS’s in joint commands, and I’ve been a supervisor to IS’s when I later got rank. Their quality of life was as good as mine in the USAF. And the schools they go to produce fairly competent intel weenies. Intel is a great field, honestly can’t recommend it enough. The only rate I’d recommend over IS is CTN but I don’t know what Reserve CTN’s do, I only dealt with active duty. But they go through some good schools and get to do very interesting things. You can make a metric fuckton of money as a CTN looking for contractor or GS work. The market for bog standard intel weenie is a bit tighter, but CTN’s are always in demand and have way more specialized training. As you are a successful nuke I have 0 doubts that you would be able to handle those schools.

Mr. Nice! posted:Yeah I’m terminally broken. I have a medal that I got at a pretty low rank that my non-deployed chain of command threw such a poo poo fit over I didn’t even get a medal presentation or anything just because they felt like E-4’s shouldn’t be getting that high of a medal. I still don’t display anything about it in my office with all my mil stuff, because I’m broke brained enough to think I didn’t deserve it after their levels of bullshit about it. Something I should feel pride in, is like.. toxic to my mind now. I feel ya Mr. Nice, I’m broken too.

Mr. Nice! posted:A former XO of mine, pissed at the way the army was using IAs from our ship and IAs in general, was giddy at the prospect of grabbing an army IA to deploy on the ship with us to the middle east. He figured the best thing to do would grab a technical expert E5 or E6 and then make them a mess crank for the entirety of deployment. That’s a pretty lovely XO if you ask me. Punishing some rando soldier who had nothing to do with the way Navy IA’s were used by the army tells me this guy isn’t very emotionally mature, and I would have serious concerns about his fitness to command based on just this alone. I had Navy Reserve IS’s working for me the entire time I was in Iraq and Afghanistan. I did my best to see to it that they were used meaningfully, and given adequate training for our special mission sets. I explicitly exempted them from army stupidity like accountability formations and poo poo. I was impressed by the professionalism and capability of the reservists I got. Maybe I just got lucky but I’m talking about 20’sh people here. That said, their mere presence is exhibit A for how badly we’ve depleted the Army.
