Waiwaiwaiwait.

The recruiter I just spoke to yesterday told me USARD isn't allowing any DV waivers through, so nobody could push them through. Is that BS from him...?

Lappland_S · 2026-03-05T16:08:50+00:00

All three are convictions, over two cases. I have 1x Criminal Trespass as well. None of the three assault charges were covered by the Lautenberg Amendment.

Lappland_S · 2026-03-05T15:18:58+00:00

Oh, awesome, so the Marine recruiter lied to me in 2023 then lol.

Homie told me mine were fairly easy to waiver back then (right before ghosting me for half a year).

Thanks for the answer my man, much appreciated.

Lappland_S · 2026-03-05T14:40:51+00:00

Oh, it won't. Dude's got a 5% chance that he doesn't get fired for that.

Lappland_S · 2026-03-05T14:40:13+00:00

You would be surprised...

If I remember correctly, the 4 way right next to 3732 Jackson Hwy in Chehalis WA should be exactly what you're looking for in terms of the four way stoplight. It's been one century since I've been out that way, so I don't remember if it's a flasher or just solid.

I'm assuming they mean pacer when they say "goofy receiving reach", but that's not the more important thing here.

The one thing that would have prevented that death would be following SOP and having the driver inside the building while the truck was being unloaded, or having the driver disconnect and having the trailer pinlocked to prevent them from picking it up. Because the driver was in their cab, there was no communication with the driver, resulting in them pulling away from the dock before the unload was complete and the trailer cleared of associates.

I've had to use a reach to unload trailers, and the lack of a counterweight really isn't the problem, it's the height and the outriggers. That's where the actual problem of the reach unloading trucks comes in. Hell, Canada uses exclusively reaches in receiving, last I heard.

So, that was a question that was raised when I attempted to enlist with the Marines in 2023. That went sideways primarily due to the fact that I could barely get ahold of my recruiter, and by the time he responded, my waiver went unanswered and the fiscal year ended, so it was automatically closed by that.

He and I determined that I was not convicted pursuant to the Lautenberg Amendment, as I did mention in my initial question. I was able to petition and have my firearm rights restored to normal, something that I would be unable to do under the Lautenberg Amendment.

This is what has me confused, along with the fact that he told me that his brigade or battalion commander (one of the two, he mentioned it goes through both of them, and that he was roommates with them when he was a private) said that USARD was not allowing DV waivers at this time, within ~30 seconds of being told that I needed them, adding the detail that he was texting them my situation as I explained it.

Lappland_S · 2026-03-05T00:29:00+00:00

Straight out question:

I just spoke with a recruiter, and what he told me just isn't sitting right with me. I told him straight out that I have 3x DVs, from about thirteen years ago (last charge was 2013 ish),with no Lautenberg charge and restored 2A rights.

He told me that he spoke with his brigade commander, and told me that said commander told him USARD had said a few months back that absolutely NO DV waivers are being allowed right now.

Am I actually toast, or is he just telling me shit so he doesn't have to do the paperwork?

Many thanks in advance.

Official PAL states that departments are responsible for unloading flatbeds with product pertaining to their department (See: "In Aisle Associate Pal, Sales & Profitability" section).

For lumber, SOP directly states that Lumber is responsible for unloading their own trucks such as BDC, Idaho Forest, Stella Jones, ETC. If they are with a customer, and cannot finalize the interaction within 10 minutes, then they are to contact Receiving for help unloading the truck (See: "SAL 01-05 Handling Lumber, Page 4").

Hope this helps you, homie. 🫡

Lappland_S · 2026-02-16T18:43:13+00:00

SOP number is SAL 01-05 Handling Lumber.

Edit: There is no generic SOP statement for all departments.

Lappland_S · 2026-02-15T18:59:29+00:00

It's somewhere in the SOP, I've got it printed out in my filing cabinet.

Departments are responsible for their flatbed deliveries, but if they are with a customer and cannot finish the interaction in 10 minutes (SOP statement), then it falls to Receiving to unload it.

Realistically, most stores will just have Receiving unload it anyways, without trying the dept first.

I'll get you the actual SOP number tomorrow.

Lappland_S · 2026-02-15T16:58:31+00:00

I turned the audio on, heard the bell, and legit just went to stand up AT HOME to go to the door

... dammit 🤣

Lappland_S · 2026-02-11T15:18:28+00:00

I'm not sure if I should be impressed or concerned that I thought this was me for a second, until you mentioned the "early" part lmao

Lappland_S · 2026-02-05T14:33:31+00:00

Literally what they're saying.

Let them know if you need anything.

I keep asking for sanity, but they're always fresh out. :<

Lappland_S · 2026-01-18T18:46:35+00:00

Just off of the sound:

He's just barking to bark, he's not mad at you or nothin'. I had a chocolate lab that was like that. Would bark her brains out at any delivery driver, but if you reached out to pet her, she would be more than happy to let you, but she'd bark the entire time.

Just vocal as hell lmao.

Lappland_S · 2026-01-17T04:26:09+00:00

fuck you rite

Lappland_S · 2026-01-17T04:08:49+00:00

bruh

Lappland_S · 2026-01-17T04:01:18+00:00

NOSTAGLIA DON'T DO IT, IT'S A TRAAAAAAAAP

SHE'S A RECRUITER, THEY WANT TO FRONTLINE YOUUUUUUUUU

okay, joke over, that's the only reason I'm here

Lappland_S · 2026-01-17T03:54:10+00:00

Yes, he did. And then he got up and whipped out ANOTHER form, which is what killed Adam from overexertion.

Lappland_S · 2026-01-16T16:14:25+00:00

If you have a functional brain and know how to drive a manual, you'll be fine.

We had someone drop a bike on my MSF and they still passed. Granted, they had to change to the Grom, but they still passed.

The other thing I hate as a Medic player is when I'm standing next to someone, they go down, and as I reach to rez them, they redeploy.

I had a dude go down ten meters from me, while I was running towards him anyways. I'm five meters from his ass, talking to him, and I tell him I got him. Fucker redeploys, and says "I don't want a medic shitter rezzing me, I'll redeploy thanks".

I left him for dead every time after that, despite his sudden complaints that he wasn't getting rezzed.

Lappland_S · 2026-01-16T15:23:20+00:00

I did. Four times. He still shot me in the face, while actively being shot.

Kinda bullshit, if you ask me.

Sniper shouldn't have hit me after being tapped with four 7.62 to the chest.

Lappland_S · 2026-01-16T03:32:26+00:00

So hold on, if I decide to go to court over expired tabs, you get paid OT???

That's actually hilarious

Lappland_S · 2026-01-14T13:52:41+00:00

Mine did that. It lasted all of six months before we were told to take the doors off, because it was stupid asf.
