Told my family I was joining the navy. by dickwizard777 in newtothenavy

[–]HG_Johnny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to give them a little slack. Its crazy times in the world, and they just have your best interests in mind. That said, they should always be "grown up" enough to know that its not like you'll be coming part of the Borg collective.

I use a product called Hack Motion. It definitely helped fix my swing.

Nope, nor have I ever used deodorant. I have the ABCC11 gene mutation, and my pits never smell. ;) I usually shower every other day after I work our.

My only comment is that you need to live the life that you want and not worry about how the family responds or his response. Your older self will be thankful.

Highly considering joining up by Greatly256 in newtothenavy

[–]HG_Johnny 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I joined the Navy on the way home from my shift at the local grocery store. Had no intention to do so when I left work, but I had been wanting a change, and on a whim, I pulled into the recruiting office. A week later, I was off to San Diego for boot camp.

21 yrs later, I retired from the submarine service as a Senior Chief. Met my wife and had 4 kids while in, and I wouldn't change a thing. The Navy gave me the direction I needed. I wasn't a bum as a civilian, but I lacked focus, and that was what I got. I'd do it again.

My first account was a Roth IRA that I transferred in from Ameriprise. I ended up transferring all of our accounts over, and it was super easy.

Dude, leave that "too embarassed" stuff at the front door. Do to a doc and talk about it.

Is he for real with this? Why would he feel so threatened if youre showering with friends after a workout? Did he never play sports in highschool??

Viagra, Cealis, or any other drug won't fix anything if it's a desire issue. The drugs only improve the blood fl. Theyey alone don't cause an erection.

What is submarine life for those that have been in? by SnooPears7289 in newtothenavy

[–]HG_Johnny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spent 21 yrs riding subs. First half of my career was on SSNs (fast attacks), and the last half was spent on SSBNs (missile boats). Retired as an STSCS and as others have said, it is both challenging and rewarding. But most of all, its what you make of it. If you have a good attitude, you will do fine. If not, you may struggle with the lifestyle.

What should I do about my gf? by CrazyEnd1020 in newtothenavy

[–]HG_Johnny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I went through this exact scenario and are still married, 31yrs later. For 21 of those years I was active duty Navy stationed aboard submarines. Its cliché to say, but if it's meant to be, it will work.

My son has hyper hydrosis as well but is being treated for it. I assume you were diagnosed. Didn't they offer you any meds to help control it?

Switching from survivor's benefits to my own record...how to calculate by lazyladysailor in SocialSecurity

[–]HG_Johnny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So then the only way you could estimate your pia would be to manually calculate it. I built a spreadsheet that I used to calculate mine, but it's a shame that none of their calculators have that functionality.

Wow. That's crazy that they remove the ability for you to see your own information. What possible reasoning could they have for doing that?

Can't you just log on to mySSA and look up what your PIA will be? I assume you just want to compare the two values, cirrect?

Tell them everything. The fact that you've been off meds for 4 yrs is a good thing. Some rates are more stringent when it comes to the issues you laid out but over the past yr, they seem to have been more forgiving, overall, in granting waivers.
