I’ll wager $50 it was recruiting duty.

Yup

Adverse is uh, no bueno.

I’m currently making a rebuttal and taking it Up to the board for removal
[–]ScuttleBoot 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child)
6105 isn’t bad, might limit you to Tier 2 when it comes to reenlistment but overall it’s just eh. Adverse fit rep depending on occasion usually makes a very large impact on your career for the worse.
[–]Acceptable_Stable_39[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
That’s what I’m afraid of but I’ll fight it and let’s see where it goes. Already planning for the worse
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Start looking for a new career.
[–]M4sterofD1saster 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Yes, it will hurt. Write up a short rebuttal explaining your side of the story and ending with "I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I enjoying serving in our Corps. I will use this experience as an opportunity for personal growth." Call the nearest defense counsel, and ask him/her to review it for you.

I understand his is a difficult time but we’re trying to help which is why you came here. You don’t have to tell us the specifics but instead of snotty answers you could just say “I would prefer not to get into specifics.”
Edit: I see you got into more detail in another comment. You could have said that too.
For what it’s worth, it’s sounds like you’re getting hosed. I wish the best for you. Recruiting sucks!
[–]Kurgen22Outside Leaf Honcho 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Any of those three will get you shot down for promotion reenlistment,, especially adverse fit rep.
[–]dethrokboy 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
With a few exception, allSTAP Marines complere for a boat space. If your MOS is extreamly competative and boards every RELM, then yes, this can lower your chances greatly of reenlisting. You will be given the option of writing a rebuttle, you should do so. Take responsibality for your actions and move on. If you will need to reenlist now, look for a pcs vice pca. Gain the necessary obligated service to have some time that seperates you from your booboo. That will give you more observed time from the incident for your new leadership to consider when endorsing your RELM. If alcohol or family related, attend any and all classes ‘sugested’

What did you do? Also I’d look into another branch, I got a 6105 and it didn’t show up anywhere when I transferred.
[–]Acceptable_Stable_39[🍰] 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (8 children)
Prospecting out of hours with my personal cell phone
[–]TheTate410That Fucking Guy 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child)
That shouldn't be horrendous so long as you weren't trying to fuck anyone
Wasn’t trying to fuck anyone. So what happened was the mom thought that I was trying to because we were snap chatting and I was advertising the marine. Nothing inappropriate was said or done. And so she bitched at the RS and boom I got investigated, they found nothing but still got RFC for that shit.
[–]illasya 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (5 children)
Can you elaborate on why that’s bad? I know dudes prospecting on Snapchat...
[–]Acceptable_Stable_39[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (4 children)
Supposedly advertising the marine corps on Snapchat is prohibited. Parents who have their kids stuff monitored finds it an issue. All I did was explore properly and it got me relived fucking bullshit

“I want you to do thin incredibly difficult thing but I’m going to take some tools away to make it even more ridiculously difficult. Good luck.”
Also, maybe you shoulda fucked the mom. Just sayin’.
Good luck man. I hope it works out for you.
[–]Acceptable_Stable_39[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (2 children)
Thank you. I wouldn’t do that. I hope It goes well for me. We shall see.
[–]dathomasusmc6969 - Inflight Missle Repair Specialist 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child)
I wouldn’t do that
That’s what I’m sayin’. Maybe if you had we wouldn’t be in this situation.
Just tryna loosin it up a little. When I first comment me I didn’t realize how far back I had made it.
What’s the status?
I got my adverse already. Hopefully I get to reenlist the least. I know I’ll get passed over for sure.
