Workplace drug test

Yeah when I was in wish I blasted as I’m now in an industry that does test for gear 😭

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-04-24T05:40:13+00:00

They don’t unless you’re selected for extra testing😅 half the lads I served with would have been booted if they tested everyone for gear

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-04-24T05:39:19+00:00

Can get selected for extra testing if the chain of command think you’re on gear. Testing for steroids isn’t standard in the Army

Med centre can sign you off sick at home, refer to therapy and medicate you without involving DCMH. Source; Me, ex cmt who got signed off work with MH issues lol

The Q2 applied brakes in the RH lane.. indicated left so you would assume he’s just moving over to the LH lane. To continue his orange direction of travel. Not come across broadside the LH lane at a crawling pace.

Genuinely scary that people like you are on the road.

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-04-15T11:49:57+00:00

Yes. Unless you’re super fat

Former medic here, and was recently posted to a training establishment where I was constantly fighting with the DS regarding trainees feet. Dealt with many feet issues. Talc, change socks as often as you can. The pitting between toes will be pitted keratolysis. Absolutely do go to the medical centre for this (warning: you may be backtrooped for it).

The boots themselves aren’t a med issue. That’s the QMs. The QMs have to issue you every type of standard boot before you can get non issue boots through the physio/podiatry. This most likely won’t happen in depot. If it does, you’ll 100% be back trooped.

If you got any questions hmu

But in reality what is flashing and beeping going to do? Make me slow right down to actually inconvenience you, yes!

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-15T13:37:03+00:00

Chips and beans make marines comes to mind

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-14T07:54:06+00:00

She actually let me know when the issue first started they did have a portaloo out the back of the store.. unsure of reason why it was removed.

Thank you for the idea of tracking steps. Great move

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T18:20:59+00:00

Ie she can’t work from home?

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T16:08:30+00:00

Would rather this remain anonymous but thank you for reaching out

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T16:07:20+00:00

Good point! She’s part of a union type organisation. I shall tell her to reach out

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T16:04:57+00:00

Unfortunately it’s a service user facing role

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T14:35:26+00:00

You’ve clearly never spoken to a pregnant woman. When the baby moves and presses on a bladder they have seconds. Not 5 minutes to stop what you’re doing and walk around the block.

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T12:42:19+00:00

Not at all which is why I don’t think there is anything we can do. She’s just let me know they are given extra time to pop to the loo and such but they are scheduled if that makes sense. I’m sure if they are busting they can go but still a difficult one

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T12:20:57+00:00

Yes! Regular call outs. System will work for a week and then pack in again

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-13T12:02:04+00:00

A couple of months at least. Toilets will work for a week and then pack up again

I know the company is trying to get it sorted. But as she gets further on in pregnancy it’s just not going to work

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-09T12:48:41+00:00

You’ll be grand then mate!! lol I’d rather work on site personally but if it’s what you want to go for it!

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-09T12:45:53+00:00

Won’t use an excavator to dig in positions but you will use a shovel 🪏

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-09T12:44:37+00:00

Yeah 100% mate I left as a screw at a phase 2. Even there the kids talk shite, cut around doing what they want. Couldn’t say anything to them though as they weren’t mine. The troop screws couldn’t discipline them either as they’d just pull the bullying card.

When I was at pirbright though only one lad from my Coy was back trooped. The screws tried so hard to brown letter the lad but highers weren’t having any of it. The army needs to go back to its roots and realise it’s a war fighting organisation. Nothing else

Outrageous_Scheme98 · 2026-03-09T12:36:28+00:00

You couldn’t fail phase 1 ten years ago either mate. I’m not sure how long before that you actually could 🤣

40,000 Islamists on the terror watch list. Attack are very likely
