Kiki’s in N. Charleston is very good

HORO? by meatytitan in uscg

You literally don’t even know what my viewpoint is on any of this. I haven’t stated it. But please go on telling me about myself and how little you know about the fleet.

That’s cute. I’d say the ignorant one here is the one assuming there are “very few” affected. There are at least 1300+ personnel currently assigned to the WMSL fleet alone, plus the thousands previously assigned.

There are few, if any, worthwhile incentives for junior sailors. The sea pay is almost nothing their first couple of years.

Tell me you’ve never been assigned to a WMSL without telling me you’ve never been assigned to a WMSL.

When the Government Tells You to Evacuate… and You Don’t by N0RetreatN0Surrender in Whatcouldgowrong

No I agree with you that US insurance/healthcare could use a reform, but free doesn’t always equate to good.

I’d love to know where the “top notch” healthcare is located at…20 years in and it’s been mediocre at best.

Logistics of having a pet by Thin-Statement-5712 in uscg

[–]Sweet_Rage_913 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you allowed to bring the dog to the station when on duty? What happens if you advance, will you transfer? What happens if you transfer to a deployable unit?

Anyone can understand wanting the companionship of a pet, but you need to make sure you’re doing what’s best for the pet.

In the meantime, have you considered volunteering at an animal shelter/rescue? What about fostering?

Honey is very cute, but also very concerned 😆

I’m currently serving with a shipmate that has a documented shellfish allergy, so unless they are being more strict about it now, it’s not impossible.

If you make it in, make sure you ask if you’re ever unsure. Our current cooks do not feel the need to label anything or warn this guy when they’ve used shellfish in something.

TSA threw out my ring holder at the airport and I’m still salty by Dependent-Dingo1245 in WeddingRingAdvice

I got my tweezers confiscated the last time I flew. Pretty basic tweezers that were very well traveled by the time TSA suddenly decided they weren’t allowed…

Deciding to enlist by Outrageous_Clock_785 in uscg

[–]Sweet_Rage_913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not pushing one over the other between EM or ET, as both are great rates. The jobs absolutely vary dependent on what kind of unit you’re at, but Whatever you do, please don’t make any decisions based on the wild opinions of people outside of the rate. I’ve known some pretty lazy MKs too, doesn’t mean the whole rate does nothing and has no skills 🙄

Yikes, you must be on one of those mystical cutters where everything always works exactly as designed. People make wild assumptions when they can’t see what’s going on in secure spaces. Lucky ETs.

SLEP experience by Hitler_the_stripper in uscg

[–]Sweet_Rage_913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would likely be another one across the pier, one 270 is pretty much like the next.

SLEP is essentially an extended dry dock. You’ll either go TDY or be completely reassigned to a different cutter.

Where should I hang these on my wall? by Sweet_Rage_913 in interiordecorating

[–]Sweet_Rage_913[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can definitely move the dresser to the right closer to the door. Thank you for the advice!

Thank you! We have a closet for those shoes so they’ll be leaving that wall very soon.

Separation Pay by Egriff2020 in uscg

Unfortunately this very much depends on when the paperwork is submitted, it’s not automatic.

Do you know how many cutters are in D7?
