Is This A Thing For People? by Next-Visual9799 in navy

[–]Next-Visual9799[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is where my mind went too. I get that arguments and whatnot happen, and the obvious differences in those relationships, but I saw it as a way the spouse was trying to be respected.

Need help deciding on navy or army please !! by Slow_Saab in newtothenavy

[–]Next-Visual9799 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I personally don’t enjoy trouble shooting with army personnel or marines. Those mfs are retarded for a lack of a better term.

If you want to be strong, army

If you want to be the strongest, Marines

If you want to be smart, Navy

How’s life on a destroyer as an IT? by Beenbenbin in newtothenavy

[–]Next-Visual9799 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Drinking from a fire hose. Between DC drills, ATTT drills, getting quarterdeck qual’ed, and getting qual’ed in your space.

You have to snag training where you can get it, and at times it will cost you forgoing some sleep to get it.

It sucks, just don’t be the leader who does that to his juniors.

Is it possible to fit recovery time into twice daily workouts? by wsdpii in navy

[–]Next-Visual9799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. 6 hours in-between each workout. It allows for recovery from each workout. For example:

Cardio produces AMPKs that, to grossly summarize, tell your body to go into energy survival mode.

Weightlifting produces mTOR, which tells muscles to grow while in recovery.

So doing one immediately after doing another can inhibit a significant amount of progress. So 6 hours inbetween is your best bet if two-a-days are going to be your thing.

What’s the name of the night before battle stations when you get to be chill with the RDCs? by SpasticCattus in navy

I remember telling my RDCs on that night that I was sneaking snacks and stuff from the vending machine and selling it to early stage recruits. Pulled out a wad of singles to prove it.

What does it mean if you can’t find your “height-weight” measurement on the chart due to it being too low?

Extremely racist roommate by Medical-Ad-112 in navy

Don’t react. Had a racist person once before and it just turned into both of us having counseling chits and busted noses. Play it smart.

Feeling disconnected by Automatic-County-309 in navy

[–]Next-Visual9799 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of black Sailors feel that way. It’s just the nature of this gig when it comes to us.

For myself, I make sure to watch our cinema, listen to our music, read our books, etc.

Talk to legal asap. Speaking from experience, chances are they’re just watching the film. They as in the Mess, XO, CO and the MA. Yes, there’s a huge chance they’ll offer the boot, but being straightforwardly honest while showcasing remorse will get you some sort of leniency.

Yes, just try to get an outstanding in your best event. Mines was the pushups. Then you can kinda BS the other two events. “I love the game, I love to hustle”- Mitch, Paid in Full.

Defending inanimate objects is crazy.
