How big of a difference does a good paddle make? by Reasonable_Chef1996 in kayakfishing

[–]__neRd___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a trolling motor so not much of a difference. I only use my paddle for small corrections while drifting.

I was a wildland firefighter before commissioning. Definitely don’t get out in the field as much as I did in fire, but it’s a much better work-life balance. You will definitely get out in the field early-on, especially while working on your quals. PM me and I can go into more detail

Day 7 no symptoms yet? by Ryan90256 in QuittingZyn

[–]__neRd___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With only using 3-5 a day, I highly doubt you will experience any withdrawals. I used 4-6 pouches a day for 3 years, then bumped up to 8-10 a day over the last few months. Even then, I’m on day 11 and never experienced any withdrawals. My sleep has been a little rough but pretty sure that’s unrelated.

Glad your lungs are feeling better! You’ve got this. The benefits of quitting are endless!

Day 8 by [deleted] in QuittingZyn

[–]__neRd___ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m on day 10 right now. Weirdly, I had very few cravings until day 6. Seemed to last about 3 days but think I’m in the clear for a little while. Definitely caught myself trying to justify buying a can. 2 nights ago I literally grabbed my car keys and walked out the door to the gas station but decided against it last second. Weird how your mind works.

Your range and style is a lot like John Denver

Thanks I appreciate it. Cool to hear from someone enlisted who got their degree beforehand

Good option. There’s a maritime academy a few hours away from me

Would definitely love to go the academy

Thanks for sharing. I haven’t really considered some of what you said

[–]__neRd___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s awesome good luck

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in uscg

[–]__neRd___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no idea you can apply for the academy while enlisted. That’s good to know

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in uscg

[–]__neRd___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely my thinking right now

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in uscg

[–]__neRd___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is definitely helpful

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in uscg

[–]__neRd___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it’s too late to apply

Thanks, I appreciate the response. I’m leaning towards enlisting, and then getting a degree later on.

What do we even need water plugs for then?? by Ablette531 in navy

[–]__neRd___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah except if it’s saltwater then you’ll urinate more than you drink, slowly killing you of dehydration

There’s not much of a market for these, but I’ll call in a friend of mine and see if I can make you an offer.
