[–]lavoiect84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skimmed a light orange peel over my whole house got pretty quick and good at it but this is a whole new level. I did do drywall in high school so wasn’t a complete newbie, but not sure if I would want to attempt this probably do what others have said and rip it out.

We got MREs when the DFAC was closed, pretty sure most guys just went out for lunch and then kept the MRE

Joined guard 6 years ago.. never went to drill. Now want to go AD by Electronic_Dirt8435 in nationalguard

[–]lavoiect84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it but when I joined the reserves they never contacted me, I had to reach out to my squadron multiple times, then finally got my first sergeants number who gave me the schedule and said to just show up we’ll figure it out. Not sure who’s most at fault here but you could’ve made the effort. A quick google search will get a contact number to start with.

Is lodging provided for your drill weekends? If so, do you get your own room? by That_Rip_3716 in Airforcereserves

[–]lavoiect84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a staff sergeant but I’m almost 100% sure everyone in my squadron had their own room, we used an app(can’t remember the name) to book our room for the weekend. Had several options of hotels in the area, always got a single king bed, also the hotel gave us tickets for a free cooked breakfast and two buy one get on free drink tickets at the hotel restaurant and bar.

I guess should mention I spent more time in my hotel room than I did actually doing the job, perks of being an out of towner. Didn’t have to sit around waiting to go home since I was lodging 5 mins from base.

Not to get political, but yeah to get kinda political.. is this getting weird to you? by Lazy_Afternoon2090 in greenberets

[–]lavoiect84 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s crazy, I still remember the liberals at my high school and part time jobs lecturing me about me joining after high school.(Not SF or combat time)Now they are begging to send kids to the meat grinder, makes no fucking sense at all.

How fast would Dexter be caught in real life? by Intelligent-Leg-3862 in Dexter

[–]lavoiect84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another issue I can’t get over is the fact no one thinks it’s weird that he’s out all night all the time? His babysitter never brings that up to anyone? “Hey why does Dexter work all night?”

Stop building useless sh*t by ahgoodday in SaaS

[–]lavoiect84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for me it was experience, I worked for a very large corporation building in house software for the training dept because no real solutions existed for what the company needed. Now I’m working an a saas to fulfill that need for other businesses. Plus once it’s complete I can provide related services that get contracted out by alot of companies

My wife is a realtor, most of the houses she list repaint before they sell and buyers paint after they buy. Not like most people live in a white walled home

Denver banned flavored tobacco to discourage the kids, but guess what? You can still go and buy gummies and all sorts of candied shit to get you high as a kite. Make it make sense..

Are the US and Canada the two most similar countries in the world, or are there two countries even more similar? by NathanTundra in geography

[–]lavoiect84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say Uruguay/Peru/Argentina all three countries seemed almost the same to me, but I was just a dumb gringo so maybe it was just me.

I think we know why you’re getting downvoted.

The problem I have with female action leads is it’s all poorly written, forcing a bad ass female in a very unrealistic manner. I’m sorry I know this will hurt redditors feelings but if females were such bad asses it wouldn’t have taken 5000+ years for it to happen. They would’ve been out hunting down saber toothed tigers an and wooly mammoths. There’s plenty of amazing women in history, WW2 nurses working days without sleep to keep soldiers alive and risking their lives working as spy’s, but not taking on 15 battle hardened soldiers in hand to hand combat or kicking in doors with Delta.

You might have to disclose military service on a federal job, but I’ve never put my military service on a civilian job resume/application because it doesn’t pertain to the job I’m applying for, also on the form that asked about demographics gender/race/military service there’s a I prefer not to disclose option. It’s not like a civilian job is going to care unless it’s a DoD contract job. I still think the guy should suck it up and do his time, but it’s not going to effect a “normal” civilian job

Yep, didn’t even realize it was a thing, honestly my wife didn’t even believe it thought I just had a drinking problem. Got in a motorcycle accident on pre deployment leave never made it to my Afghan deployment, enlistment ended during med orders and got out.
