They say that in the Army, the curfew's mighty fine



That O5 pissed someone right the gently caress off. Was base locked down and he was still out in town instead of on base with his troops?

Also :lol: at an E8 getting hosed for 125 large for BAH fraud and got reduced to loving corporal.

I'm betting specialist instead of corporal. The point of the demotion would be to make him not be an NCO anymore.

Makes sense. I was thinking last position served honorably type thing.


Zeris posted:

That E-8 more than likely had redirected someone else's BAH to himself over a period of months, hence the six-figure repayment.

That O-5 was doing way, way more than violating curfew. Whatever actually gets written down for an officer punishment is always just the tip of the iceberg. The other 90% gets kept submerged.

I figured he had some fraudulent BAH via a sham marriage for decades, but your idea is pretty reasonable as well. And yeah, the colonel was definitely doing much more than missing curfew but still its hilarious.

Got my tonsils out today. Excruciating pain whenever I swallow and two weeks of convalescent leave is still better than going to work.

Get ready for a lifetime of poo poo constantly getting into your nose and frequent sinus infections.

Is the current thread title a reference to Arrested Development? Please tell me it is a reference to Arrested Development.

Yeah, and both he and I had them out as adults. There's a difference. Children recover faster first off, and second you grew up missing them where he and I now just have giant holes in the back of our throats that won't be mitigated as we grow.

I was browsing the forums one day in an English course and someone came up to me afterwards and asked the, "Do you have stairs?" question. I just responded, "Oh god," because I didn't think someone would ask that and she frowned then told me that wasn't how I was supposed to answer.

Goons, sigh. At least we can feel superior to someone right, fellow goons?! :fsmug:

The ship guys asked me the stairs question and I was flummoxed because I had never heard of it and was like "what the gently caress are you asking me that for?" I mainly just posted in SAS at the time (before TFF & PSP existed) so I really had no idea what was going on in the greater goonsphere.

One of the fun things when I worked at squadron was seeing the manning readiness powerpoints that always had some red marks from a couple of people that were AWOL and of course hadn't seen medical/dental on time. It chapped a few people's asses and there was frequent bitching about it.

Well... soldiers are pretty easily scammed, generally proven before they ever even arrive to basic training.

Do all the army training schools and such have malls nearby where people will allow them to buy a $500 laptop with allotments that total like $2500 in payments like the navy?

Time to buy a pool table and build a wet bar.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Edit: New place isn't quite big enough for the pool table so that's at an employee's dad's house, but now that I don't have an alcoholic roommate that will empty any booze I buy, the wetbar is set back up with kegerator running again.

Being told, "Sorry, you can't eat here, you're very dirty from the war, and you're still in your war clothes," was the moment I realized Catch-22 wasn't fiction.

When I was enlisted in the navy, I worked in deck basically painting and dealing with mooring lines and poo poo all day. I would wake up in the morning, put on utilities so I could eat and then muster. Then I would change into coveralls to work. Sometimes they were dirty nasty coveralls because of painting. Sometimes they were clean I just wore them so I wouldn't get grease/whatever else I was doing on my utilities. I'd have to change into utilities for lunch because I couldn't leave the ship in coveralls nor could I eat on the messdecks in coveralls even if they were clean. After lunch, change back into coveralls go back to work. Put utilities/civilian clothes on to go back to the barracks (once I had a barracks room).

Underway it was the same drat thing except if I had a fleck of paint on my coveralls I had to change them. I would say a good hour a day was wasted just changing loving clothes while I was enlisted so some chief wouldn't get his panties in a bunch that I was eating in the wrong uniform.

It's nice to see that some stupidity is universal.
