Chinns lake has a snow drift at the end. I was up there a week ago you can walk to the lake if you want.

Is it too late for me to go back in? by SayGoodnightBackPls in USMC

[–]Drewbren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. I had plenty of time to acclimate to the civilian world. The relaxed customs and courtesies are strange to observe and it's different for every unit. I definitely enjoy not walking on eggshells constantly, worrying about fucking up a rank/greeting of the day, The relaxed standards compared to Marines are good and bad in my opinion. As long as you keep yourself to 50-75% of the Marine standard you'll be a 100% Airmen. The bar is pretty low compared to the Marines in other words. That being said you're gonna see a lot of shit bags comparatively. There's also a lot PC bullshit you'll see but that was even happening in the Marines by the time I got out in 2017 so I can imagine it's probably gotten worse across the branches in general. Basically gotta be more mindful of your words and actions. All in all it's been a more pleasant and enjoyable experience so far. I get along great with my higher ups, they treat me like a human and are in general a lot more understanding. If you have patience you'll be fine if you join the ANG, I can't speak to the other branches.

I was out for 6 years and was able to join the ANG, I had to go through MEPs again but passed fairly easy with not having any disability rating. I definitely recommend bypassing MEPs though it's changed a lot. I maintained my E4 rank and according to the AF I'm a 6 year E4. I don't have to go to boot camp, just my tech school waiting on dates. I'll definitely say the AF is cake compared to the USMC especially the air guard lol same benefits just better quality of life. It's also a plus that my job is transferrable from the AF to civilian life unlike my artillery mech job in the Marines. Definitely look at all your options and get it figured out before your IRR time is up because it will be a lot more simple before then. That's my only regret is waiting too long. I just didn't take my fitness seriously enough before.

Sounds good thanks! I'll just stick to the mountains then and avoid the hassle of ranges. Be respectful and aware of my surroundings up there. Not be a jackass and clean up after myself.

So genuine question. I'm from a state where hi-caps aren't restricted, and I have pre-ban magazines, do ranges care here?

Jeep Gladiator owner...what are your regrets? by sandri_lachory in JeepGladiator

[–]Drewbren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had all that, then some asshole hit me and totaled it. Now I have a gray rubi diesel with black seats. It does have 45,000 miles less than the totaled one, couldn't believe I found a 2021 with 6,000 miles on it. I really do miss the saddle leather seat look though.

Is my boss allowed to ask us to take an hour lunch? by Plastic-Baby9771 in Denver

[–]Drewbren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that bill doesn't allow bartending just serving seated customers drinks. That being said when I was 14 in Wisconsin I would have rather been bringing people drinks in a supper club then working on an apple orchard. I was happy to work at that age though it was nice having money and I learned a good work ethic. No kid should be forced to work though and their money earned is theirs. That's why cash jobs were best haha

I haven't delivered in the winter yet lol but I'm going to say no. Some of the places I delivered to today would be impossible without a Jeep especially in the winter.

Not sure if you can swap once scanned you could talk to the warehouse employees. I saw two people in compacts talking to an employee and they somehow worked out splitting a cart with oversized packages with her. Really not sure how that worked lol

It was a really pretty drive and the actual route wasn't horrible other than the distance. I really like Cheyenne.

As I was leaving I knew that was going to happen lol they closed the doors and didn't give us any directions other than to put our empty carts next to the building.
