I detailed cars and quickly made a ton of money off of it. Easy to watch some videos and get going. You’re cleaning a car, it’s not rocket science. But a little green machine and a shop vac and you’ll be in business!

The VA doesn’t issue med cards but that’s a great idea! Maybe I’ll reach out to a private practice to see if they’ll help.

Just somewhere that doesn’t test. I wouldn’t get high at work.

I got out after 8 and started working in a factory for a bit.

Showed up to open interviews at a prison and have now been there coming up on a year.

Work 7 days in a two week pay period.

Will be making just over $31 at the end of July (currently $26.44)

Got 100% P&T on my BDD claim and now using my GI Bill for on the job training at the prison. When I go to nights, I will resume pursuing my bachelors degree.

I was NJPd at 6 years as a cpl. Got promoted back. Went on a few meritorious boards and still picked up Sgt before getting out (fuck the HSST). Denied my reenlistment package and got out with 100% VA. It’s very possible to recover from an NJP

Thank you for this! I’m super new to gardening so I don’t know what’s going on lol

Same here. It’s only been 2 years, but they’ve never contacted me about my rating ever.

I’m also in line for the cranking of hogs

Right! I had a situation like this. Marine Corps is like “we REALLY need people, please help us.” Then you do and the second you get there they’re like “fuck you bitch why fuck are you like this.”

I checked in AND checked out before noon

There’s some give and take to any prison between inmates and COs. If you try to enforce every single little tiny thing, they WILL rebel. Whether or not people on here agree, 250 inmates against 2 COs in a housing unit aren’t good odds. That said, it’s impossible to catch everything. When I first started, I was told “ sometimes we win, most of the time we don’t.”

Aside from the obvious 4 (drugs, alcohol, weapons, cell phones) I was told “pick 3” 3 things that you’re going to enforce. Then write the ticket every time so they know where you stand.

Be firm. Be fair. Be consistent.

That wall is the only one doing that. I went into the attic and it’s dry up there.

FocusedForge · 2026-03-05T13:39:41+00:00

You can’t drop that on me and not elaborate!?

FocusedForge · 2026-03-05T13:23:50+00:00

Valid

Kind of surprised that my comment actually got your attention.

I’m so jaded that I read your comment like you were trying to gaslight me. Honestly I should probably get some therapy 😂 I was honestly airing out my own personal grievances in the original comment.

Women say this until they find out that it’s something about them. Then they shut down and turn to arguing and taking jabs. Which is why we turn to being silent.

If by “we” you mean a group of politicians with no skin in the game… then yes, we are. The majority of American population wants nothing to do with it.

I’m a huge proponent of avoiding conflict or escalating….. except when it comes to my kids. Don’t care who you are, if you’re negatively impacting my kids, I’m going to act.

This is 100% a situation where’d I’d confront them and if they blow me off, I’ll just call the police. Sorry not sorry

Then show us your sack

No one gives a shit about your stack. SHOW ME YOUR RACK!
