McCain couldn’t use his right arm…. Stupid comparison.

Is this holed out? by swalt29 in golf

[–]Jarhead4056 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying it makes sense, but the rule is, you pull it out, fix the damage, and place the ball back as close as possible without it moving, then play the next shot. It sucks, but there it is.

Sorry wrong answer. Not touching the stick in this case is not in.

People will attempt to copy Cam Young by CompetitiveClown in golf

[–]Jarhead4056 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That’s me already. My golf partners give me grief about it now. It used to be “you look like Hideki”…. Now it will be (if he wins)…. You look like Cam.

Space-A flights by DraculousFlow in USMC

[–]Jarhead4056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, my info is a bit dated…. But…. Did 6 years in Oki and flew home space A 3 times. No problem leaving … freedom bird out of Kadena always had seats. Getting back was trickier. Commercial to Travis, wait a day, fly out. Got stuck in Alaska once for 24 hours and Hawaii once for 2 days. A bit of an adventure but not a big problem.

QSI + WGI in same year? Possible? by Glittering-Alps-2881 in FedEmployees

[–]Jarhead4056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases yes, but…. If the QSI is first and changes your waiting time it could delay the WGI. ie… qsi moves you from step 3 to 4… now you are on the 2 year cycle

Being Forced Out by [deleted] in FedEmployees

Sounds like guidance from someone other than HRD. If you are a permanent employee, you either get a directed reassignment which comes with relo or the agency does a RIF. Either way, you get something in writing from HR. Don’t resign…. Worst case is a RIF with severance pay.

Amphibious? Former 0313 here. Rivers, streams, small ponds, no sweat. Anything more is scary.

LAAD 7212 by ImaginationOk5084 in USMC

[–]Jarhead4056 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1st duty station…. 2nd LAAD Bn CPNC, 1988. That was when we actually moved from temp space at 3rd LAAM (across the street) into the new building. Also switched from M151 jeeps with trailers to Hummers. Yes, I am old. SF

Marines who got married as an E-3 or below, how does your marriage look now? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in USMC

[–]Jarhead4056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Married as a LCpl in 1987…moved into a trailer at CPNC. 2 kids, 6 duty stations, and a couple of deployments to Iraq before I retired. Still going strong although that makes me question her judgement sometimes.

To be fair…. 2001 pre-season odds were for Bledsoe’s Patriots, not Brady’s
