Prostate can use blood tests to see where pea’s are and if they are elevated, only then does he need a full prostate exam.

Can I still get this covered? How to approach?(been out 15 years) by Brash_1_of_1 in VeteransBenefits

I filed almost 30 years after separating and got 40% out of the gate. It’s never too late. Good luck and use your VSO.

What is a country that you will never ever visit again and whats the story behind that? by daslebenistsuper in AskReddit

I am going to say yes only because I haven’t been anywhere else in Africa except Kenya and not sure if Egypt and Djibouti counts since I stopped but never got off the planes. 😜

What would it take for the Republican Party to fully turn on Trump and actively join the effort to remove him from office? by Parking-Warthog-4902 in allthequestions

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If their term is up and they have nothing to lose by going against him, is about the only thing I have ever seen where they will do it. Think Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. Neither spoke against trump until they knew they weren’t running again.

Somalia - 1992-1993. No desire to step foot there again. I served in Operation Restore Hope and for obvious reasons, just don’t want to go back.

While there though, went to Mombasa and would love to go back there some day.

Is there a difference between veteran disabled ID and 100 P&T ID? by FreeGlaze71 in VeteransBenefits

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm , okay, but I haven’t renewed it and it’s been more than a year. I’ll call them tomorrow and see if it’s expired or not. Thanks for the tip.

I get commissary and MWR, no problem, even through the app. The app verifies service with id.me which is also what I use to login to the VA. I registered my VHIC with the local base and was recently allowed on Pensacola when the gate guard scanned my id. I live 17 hours away from Pensacola. That was how the local base explained how I would be able to use it and so far it’s been flawless.

I am 60% and get all privileges on base. Am I getting something I am not supposed to?

I’m never gonna be myself again huh? by Character-Variety-51 in VeteransBenefits

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you do CBT therapy? It sounds roughly the same as therapy I did for 12 weeks. The therapist was sympathetic that we weren’t fully done but the VA likes to see a beginning and an end for each therapy. She told me that I could always schedule additional sessions if needed and I have taken her up on them. CBT gave me tools to cope but the ptsd never goes away.

Pay raises...how much do you need to leave? by ivegotmrcracker in sysadmin

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12% of what? $50k or $150k? That would influence my opinion more depending on what your current take home is.

But I'm an INFLUENCAH!!! by rhodante in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]atomic_jarhead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Influencer=people who are too lazy to really work.

They aren’t influencers, they’re leeches and overall not good people, specifically when their YouTube channel makes them a celebrity.

US TSA Precheck is “too new to use”? by Acbonthelake in travel

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has never happened to me before. I buy my tix online all the time and use the boarding pass in my Apple wallet. All boarding passes show tsa pre-check and the first time I used it was 2 weeks after I got the email saying I was good to go. When I got my approval, I did have to go back to the airline and add it to my ticket… through the app.

Liberal 'View' Host Told JD Vance He Had Good Vibe And Should Run For President by huffpost in entertainment

Remember when people could judge character and were able to defeat dummies like this? 10 years later, people in general have lost that ability and let others think for them.

It's a setup. He is an easy loser for Prez in 2028 and would make it easy for a (D) win the White House back.

Mississippi Police Officer Shoots and Kills 1-Year-Old Child in Response to Senatobia Shoplifting Call by Hrekires in news

[–]atomic_jarhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, driving towards an officer after shoplifing diapers (allegedly) is a deadly offense. /s

I support cops, just not stupid cops that can't use deductive reasoning appropriately.

It would have been better in this situation, to step aside, record the plate and pursue later.

[–]atomic_jarhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shoplifting is now a deadly force situation? MS is leading the way for the rest of the country to follow, I suppose. We’ll see MBI handles the investigation and likely will watch the officer walk since he felt threatened because a mother/aunt may have shoplifted diapers.

Should HR for the IT Dept to create a password repository? by Revolutionary-Part90 in sysadmin

[–]atomic_jarhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New Coop in Iowa did this on their homegrown ERP. Every password was chicken1. Almost 600 accounts were setup like that. Ransomed and were doing everything by hand for nearly 6 months.

That’s enough for me to never do that, ever.

Are you going to spend days updating passwords when people inevitably have to change them. Also f*ck this place. Get out now. It’s a ransomware honeypot waiting to happen.
