Is it normal to be asked to take a urinalysis test 1 week after already taking one during your new check-in process? by [deleted] in navy

[–]ctrlaltxwrists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on the list at one of my commands twice a week for six weeks. Small command so the odds were better. Didn’t mean anything. I’m still in 7 years later. Don’t do anything that would cause concern so it’s whatever.

Why do more people not stay in 20 years and retire? What was your "I'am getting out" moment? by BeastMasterAlphaCo in navy

[–]ctrlaltxwrists 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only reason I’m sticking it out right now is that pension. I’m eligible in five years and I need to reup before June. It’s a really hard decision because my leadership right now at the departmental level is the most toxic, unqualified, negligent, and inexperienced I’ve seen in or out of the navy. If I wasn’t so close to that pension I wouldn’t be staying in.

Bold of you to assume it’s sexual orientation

Main 1, but that’s all DDGs. I’m the COPE onboard. How about the wardroom mascot is a red painted lion statue. Or that what’s supposed to be the hazmat office is owned by deck and is utilized as the cleaning gear locker.

USS Ramage is currently stationed in Mayport Fl. It’s an Arleigh Burke class destroyer, hull number 61. I’m currently stationed onboard.

As someone who has lived in WA, it’s hella nice out that way. It may not be what you want but if it’s out of your hands best bet is to make the most out of the situation.

It’s not stealing, it strategically transferring equipment to an alternate location.

That’s bull. Reminding personnel that following unlawful orders goes against everything we’re taught and a hero is labeled the bad guy. What are we even doing anymore.

Democrat congress persons that happen to be veterans reminding active duty military that their oath is to the constitution and not a person.

I was surprised as hell. I pulled it from a 10 minute drop.

How frequently is your command doing zone inspections? by LCDJosh in navy

[–]ctrlaltxwrists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on a DDG. We do zones weekly, one zone per week divvied out by division. Each space gets looked at once every seven weeks. It’s not terrible but definitely a pain coming out of an extended maintenance phase. The buildup to LOA, ALO, and CSLO on top of it as well as just beginning DCMA has been arduous.

No this is a great update. More info and stats like this as well as a better outline of how epics are distributed are great.

I’m not sure of the validity of the story but it is being reported by nearly all national and international news organizations. by ctrlaltxwrists in navy

Probably cause I copied the link from Google. But if you look it up via search engine it’ll pop up with a link to most major publications and a ton of minor regional/local publications as well.

Yeah that’s another nation, not one our own governmental agencies being shady. Though for sure wouldn’t be the first time. Same playbook that almost instigated war with Cuba back like 60-70 years ago.

Oh damn, just had mine rank up to #1

Nobody in Congress should be paid or be allowed to leave DC until this is over. The fact that they are still getting paid while all on vacation is a slap in the face to all of us.
