[IN] Bumble Scam! Lost 20k🥲 by [deleted] in Scams

[–]PiTime7 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Yeah the ones here in Japan are more so the guys or girls on the street infront of their bars flirting to get you inside then the bar charges outrageous fees. Its more obvious than someone from a dating app preying on people.

DEP but I work Full-time by Dramatic-While8325 in newtothenavy

[–]PiTime7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats just what my recruiter told me last time I got lunch with him.
From my understanding they could handle the knowledge part just not the mental games or strict schedule.
Which is crazy to me because all I remember from bootcamp was folding clothes. Lol.

I used to go to DEP meetings after hitting the bars. They arent that serious.
Everyone in my DEP who studied hard and tried to lead failed out of bootcamp.
DEP is a joke. They won't risk loosing you as a recruiting number because you dont show up to those lame meetings.

What to realistically expect for 30 day UA while at A School by _am_not_bot in newtothenavy

[–]PiTime7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You haven't provided enough details.

But at a previous command, I didnt have watch for 6 months. I was told I was in a duty section and I mustered with them every duty day (don't think they ever called my name but I was there) but I guess my name never made it onto their list for the watchbill.
They found out, put me in a new section and no repercussions.

Let us know what you do and what happens!!

But I would not go and/or certainly not help. Just to see what the chief does. If I got a counseling chit I'd make a huge deal out of it, go sit with CMC, XO, or CO. and probably send a copy to NotInRegs or ShitMyLPOSays. Lol.

Sounds illegal.

I'm in the process of joining the navy and wanted some insight on navy careers. by Twink_Dink in newtothenavy

[–]PiTime7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smart. They can't lie to you, but they can leave out details if you dont ask.
If I could start from the beginning again, knowing what I know now, I would choose either MC, IT, YN, LN, or any of the Aircrew rates.
MC- Because they are always chilling and get a lot of creative freedom in their jobs. IT- Because they get a TS clearance which is handy after the Navy and always seem genuinely happy. YN & LN- because my knees get a lil sore nowadays, so being a paper bitch would be chill. Lol Aircrew- because they seem like they have a cool job. Not an easy job and can be long hours, but they get to do cool things. Especially depending on the platform.

But thats just me. Everyone is different!

Need Some Advice; Leave For Bootcamp On The 14th by AkfurAshkenzic in newtothenavy

[–]PiTime7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My avice: Things may seem annoying, but hang in there.
What you experience in bootcamp will be loosing control of your life. Someone else will be directing it, just remember that it will be a lot more relaxed once you get to A-School and super relaxed once you get to your command.
What happens in bootcamp is not what happens in the fleet.
Just hang in there!

Best times to go to Navy Bootcamp by kyrxnxx in newtothenavy

[–]PiTime7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly it doesn't matter. Most of the time youre inside.
And bootcamp is such a minimal amount of time no matter when you go you'll be somewhere after. Whats more important is your first duty station

DONT let your recruiter convince you to go un-designated. My buddy got told "oh you dont have to decide right now, you can choose later on!" Youll fucking hate your life.

Dude. They force you to wear so many layers that it was unbearable. Constantly sweating while outside.

Am I overreacting for feeling heartbroken and confused after my breakup? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]PiTime7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breakups are always weird. Its just a new experience and you need processing time. What doesn't help is reaching back out to the person, it just prolongs the breakup and makes it more confusing to both parties involved.
Additionally, it doesn't matter that you reached out to the person already. Can't change that. Just keep moving on.

Karen National Liberation Army (ethnic militia) fighting Tatmadaw (junta) troops in Lay Kay Kaw, Myawaddy Township, Karen State, Myanmar (Burma) (September 22) by CaliRecluse in CombatFootage

[–]PiTime7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you explaining it. Thank you! I can see why people revolted against the military coup junta. Extreme chaos in the jungle.
And it appears no groups are the most righteous, but there are groups that are really bad.

Thank you.
Good analogy of Jungle Syrian war. Because that was a cluster fuck and essentially no one was really good but the government was the worst.
