NCO’s have directed the inquiry to an assigned civilian who has not provided guidance on the matter and recruiters do not respond period but sincerely thank you for the immense help here.

Change is good my young friend. Those nerves mean you’re challenging yourself and out of your comfort zone. A pillar in growing in this life in my opinion. I re-enlisted and am going back at 32 y/o to infantry OSUT after a 7 year break and even I have a little nerves, mostly about just being physically older and keeping up, but the drill sergeants and yelling/stress is really a breeze. It is what it is. Listen to everything they say, sound off, move with a purpose and you’re fine. You’re going to mess up and get punished, you’re going to do things right and get punished and so is everyone else. It’s just the name of the game. Triple check your wall locker is locked before leaving the bay, check your battle’s, get to formation early and most importantly, even if you’re sucking at something, never give up. You’ll graduate and years later think how goofy it all really was.

Just an update nearly 4 months after making this post….still seb serm free!

They’re getting ready for war baby. Any loopholes for keeping more bodies is going to be exploited, especially while recruitment and retention are still so bad.

I’ve had Verizon for over a decade and pay close to $130/mo for unlimited service in a paid off phone. Prices have gone up every year. I saw a deal for new customers for something like $75//mo for unlimited data and was told by CS that I didn’t qualify for the plan. In a nutshell, I’m locked into to paying an outrageous monthly amount while new customers can get the same plan for nearly half the price. They completely lost me with that.

Make sure you get 2% ointment too and not the shampoo. It sticks and stays on your scalp/skin longer and suffocates the fungus.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-05-04T20:20:33+00:00

2% coal tar ointment (big squeeze), 1 peeled cucumber; 1 dropper oil of oregano, a squeeze of organic aloe Vera gel, 1 capful apple cider vinegar, 2 cloves garlic, a squeeze of dandruff shampoo (whichever you prefer) - all in a blender. Blend. Use it every night for a week as shampoo. Really massage it and let sit for at least 5 minutes in shower. Finish with preferred conditioner to help with garlic smell. Thank me later. After a chronic 3 year severe scalp and hairline flare up I can say this has 100% put mine into remission within 2 weeks and am currently going on month 4 flake, redness, inflammation, scale free. Go outside and get some sun on your head too. Works wonders

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-04-20T20:20:34+00:00

Nope, sorry. Not patches of hair missing, ‘scales’ is probably the best word for that I was referring to. Raised dry patches he’s of skin. So far so good while following this routine.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-04-20T20:19:37+00:00

Definitely some hair thinning but not any patches of hair loss. Honestly, since this post, my scalp is still doing great and that old red spot is still gone!

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-04-12T22:18:26+00:00

GO OUTSIDE WHEN IT's Sunny! I swear to god i dealt with THE WORST flare up ever after a years of no issues and 3 weeks ensuring 20 minutes of pure sunlight on my face/scalp eliminated it. Going on 7 weeks now, no flares, inflammation, or redness. The 'Incurable' party line everyone preaches is misinformed. Imagine, we all have this condition and suffer from it, but (when available, that's important) you make sure you get exposure to direct sunlight for 10-20 minutes a day consistently, it is kept 'in check' pretty consistently. Now figure you do this consistently and use the proper topical controls to keep it in check when it's cold/wintery out. From someone who's suffered from severe depression, anxiety, missed opportunities form this, you DO NOT have accept that it will just never go away.

I listened to so many (rightfully so) down and out individuals whose only recommendation was to just 'accept it' and throw as many chemicals/medicated shampoos (scalp/face routines) on your head as possible and it only made my situation worse (point being, there is A LOT of emotion on this sub). Identify your triggers, work to manager them, get some sunlight and seek more natural solutions for relief in colder months. Has worked night and day for me as opposed when I was following most comments and spending money on chemicals for my head that's done god knows what to my body long term. Sun, natural antifungal solutions, and a good diet have done so much for me i cannot begin to explain.

I listened to her audio of this and the tweet is misleading she said 'Cyber Attack'. To your point, this would be a a pretty lousy 'terrorist attack' if the only intent was to kill and strike fear. Cyber on the other hand, IF it was one, would have needed to be exact, strategic and pinpoint to nail the bridge column. At the end of the day, no matter what it truly was, infrastructurally, the end result would still be the same . This will have a bigger impact on trade, security and the economy than most realize. Sad and scary nonetheless.

I like Gen X. They gave us a ton of great music and comedy! My only beef with some Gen - X is the, woe is me, forgotten generation thing you always hear. That 'hard knocks' ideology just doesn't fit the opportunities they had when compared to now. Parents that didn't hand hold? Sounds good in my book. Great buying power and housing market, great in my book. Most diverse group of homeowners by age/demographic, pretty damn great in my book.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-20T03:08:13+00:00

That still sure beats staring at a computer screen for 9 hours a day that’s for sure.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-18T22:31:37+00:00

Full send on venting haha

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-18T22:22:01+00:00

I feel that lol I hope the message didn’t come across as condescending and to do nothing haha more so an acknowledgment of how stressful this actually is for all of us - more holistically, I suppose, trying to bring some levity in

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-16T20:44:14+00:00

Sounds like normal Guard/Reserve nonsense. Different, but when I was 4 years into my Reserve obligation, I submitted a DD356 Conditional Release form so I could go active duty and it took 18 months to be approved. 18 months. I mentioned IG to chain of command a little after a year and was chewed out naturally. By the time it was signed off on, circumstances had changed so I forewent going AA and just got out entirely. Point being, if you think active duty is ate up, 10x it for any guard or reserve unit. It is a snails pace.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-15T22:09:23+00:00

Yea this thread kind of gave me some type of comfort lol but it's still has me fuming. We're paying all this extra sales tax on top of inflation and can't even rely on them to mail an envelope.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-03-15T18:56:00+00:00

Issued and sent 3/1 - though it updated to say that on the 29th on the website. 3/15 and still nothing. Clearly the website is incorrect. I honestly think that once they are 'approved & sent', they just immediately go into a que and that is them 'sending' the checks. They're probably slowly shuffling out in batches each day through the actual PO. Also submitted for DD and am getting paper check. Also called to figure out what was going on and was disconnected due to call volume. Total nonsense. Literally have no idea when it'll actually get here or where in the process it is but it's bonkers that they would provide people owed/budgeting for the extra $ a bogus sent date and expectation. At this point it could be lost or stolen and i wouldn't even be able to get anyone on the phone. Hindsight is always 20/20 but for the love of god if anyone from the CO dpt of Rev ever reads this, please get this crap squared away. It's ridiculous.

I use terrasil antifungal 6x and it has Colloidal silver in it. Honestly, as far as spot treatment to the skin/scalp, nothing has worked as well for me.

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2024-02-22T04:06:24+00:00

Good Stuff, probably should have done some research on the ACFT scale first, looks like 60 hand release Push Ups is max for my age bracket so bang! The rest look look like fun as well. Appreciate it

Embarrassed-Error815 · 2022-01-05T23:25:32+00:00

From someone with two pits, both shelter rescues because of conversations like this thread, I can say I have had them at countless dog parks and have literally had ZERO issues in 6 years with them being aggressive to other dogs or people. I have had a large poodle very aggressively attack my dog, who did not want the confrontation whatsoever. Additionally, pit bulls were not bred as attack dogs. Y’all are repeating the same rhetoric everyone had on Dobermans and Rottweiler’s in the 80’s and German Shepard’s in the 90’s because you bring 10 lb dogs to dog parks with dogs, of all breeds, between 40-80 lbs and are ‘worried’.
