The Blues as in the Blue Angels. I was part of the PR crew that worked with them.

cool.

Courthouse bay is boring.

Congrats on getting to school. X-N

Thanks

Courthouse Bay? I thought you were going intel? Isn't engineer school there?

CHB?

Stop lying about your MOS.

already a shitbag......tsk tsk tsk.....

yeah, i told you guys my mos got switched...electrical equipment repair specialist. 1142. in CHB.

Couldn't get TSC? How come the drastic switch?

thats a pretty big f'n switch. You're not even in the 02 field anymore.

Intel is a critical MOS, they scramble to get who they can. Either you didn't clear out for a TS, or there was some other BS that came up along the way. You just don't get switch out of a entire field.


To sum it all up a quote from Pulp Fiction:

Jules: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop right there. Eating a bitch out and giving a bitch a foot massage ain't even the same fucking thing.
Vincent: It's not, it's the same ballpark.
Jules: Ain't no fucking ballpark neither. Now look, maybe your method of massage differs from mine, but you know touching his wife's feet and sticking your tongue in the holiest of holies ain't the same fucking ball park. It ain't the same league. It ain't even the same fucking sport. Look, foot massages don't mean shit.

I guess they found somebody more qualified...I barely scored high enough for that job so they filled it with them. And there was a bunch of openings in utilities so that's where they put me. So here I am in uic.

Study hard...be in top % so you can pick your duty station.

Yeah, like Iraq or the Stan'

Hahahaha! Say hi to Matt when you get over there.

HAHAHAHAHA....you'll be repairing outlets and fixing flourescent lights!

im over it, better jobs that relate to 1142 in the civilian world. so if im "fixing flourescent lights" for 4 years then so be it.

They broke you already.

So I guess with an Intel background and a degree the CIA, FBI or NSA wouldn't want anything to do with you right?

i guess thats possible, i havent been in 6 months yet, i have a while to think about this. and im not sure if i want to re-enlist right now. that may change in a couple of years, well see what happens. but for now, no really thinkning about it.

getting deployed to afghanistan in october-novemberish.

just had a friend get back from there, not sure if/when they will send them back...

stay safe over there.

When you go, stay safe.

Be reckless!

GL in AFGAN. I got lucky the war ended just before our fleet shipped out. Then the stinky turks bought our ship and I got out. I found out recently that they decom'd our ship over in Turkey, carved it up for scraps. Guess they could not afford the fuel bill.

good news...not goin to mojave viper. =] and thanks for the good lucks.
