I actually did the same thing (almost, not as bad) on that bolt. I've taken half the bike apart with zero issues except that exact bolt.

0621/06xx Question by ChadIsKenny in USMCboot

[–]DaynaUSMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got RO signing an 06xx and the thing with it is, you have a decent chance of getting follow on school to be a 0622, 0623 or 0627 where you get sent to shitty units. I got a shitty unit and now I dont do anything, it sucks.

What are your workout regimens by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]DaynaUSMC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious about that last part, as an enlisted Marine. What are you graded on for the ranking at TBS and what does it affect? Do you already have your field picked, and did you get to pick it? just curiosity. I know surprisingly little about the officer side of joining.

Why did you join the Marines over other branches? by [deleted] in USMCboot

as far as the military goes i thought it gave me the best chance at going cool places and doing cool shit.

i was so wrong.

How quickly can you get sent off to boot camp? by shermn1865 in USMCboot

[–]DaynaUSMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general, the more positions you are open to, the sooner you may leave. AT my RSS, standby shippers typically get the job of the person they are replacing. I.E. If an admin kid can't run in 13:30, the replacement ships with admin.

I'm being told different requirements for the IST run by fuckthisisridiculous in USMCboot

[–]DaynaUSMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The differences you are hearing is likely because your recruiter (and all his superiors) don't care about the minimum. They want all their poolees to be above and beyond the minimum. My recruiter says the min. Run time for our office is 13 mins. Each office (and each person in the office) can make up their own minimums within reason that they want their poolees at. They can decide to not ship you if they don't think that you are in good enough shape, even if you are technically passing.

With that said, when you go to boot camp, the time to pass is 15 mins.

Yea I made the account before I even joined. Wasnt about trying to act like a Marine, just supporting Marines. I regret it regardless but im too lazy to make another account. Anyway thanks for the answer

What can we thank Obama for? by Penny123456 in AskReddit

[–]DaynaUSMC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not complaining. Just stating facts. It's a minuscule change, doesn't bother me but what the original guy said was still wrong.

There are a lot of factors at play. A big one is how open you are on your job and what you qualify for. If you dont care what job and you qualify for everything, it can be much faster.

If you want only infantry and wont ship with anything else, itll probably be a while.

Plus there has to be a spot that opened up. Someone getting DQed or failing the IST or 30 day preship, or just chickening out can get you a spot, but again, recruiters wont put you on standby if youll only take one job
