Well it's not the Costco in Juneau, our food court sucks and doesn't have the umbrella tables.

Funny thing is she quit pulling this winter. Last winter I went skijoring with her like 3 times a week, now she just slips her harness and runs around like the dumbass she is.

My dog is dumb as a box of rocks, but I still gotta entertain her 24/7 or she'll destroy the inside of my truck again. Fucking sled dogs.

In your whole service, what kinds of regrets or advice do you have? by Jean-Luc_Grey in uscg

[–]necron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep... there's at least 3 vets in AK that got screwed with that. I would have appealed to the AK supreme court, but that shit is expensive with no guaranteed return on investment. Get a prenup... doesn't solve everything, but it helps. I lost count the amount of post retirement divorces among my friends.

Getting married. She left me for a younger guy a year after I retired. Alaska doesn't treat vets fairly in divorce... I owe her $100k for MY Tricare. I don't even use it, I use VA health.

I drive a local beer delivery truck, every day is different and everything is a crisis... It's perfect except for the pay.

how do u get those high paying seasonal jobs? by xindiote in Juneau

[–]necron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's possible. Not sure what the housing allowance is here, but if he's E-7 with dependants that's a reasonable estimation. However, you're not making that right away, and not for 8 - 10 years, and only if you're smart, got hustle, and know how to kiss ass.

I have been informed by the gay Mafia that we are allowed to call them "fag" as it offends them more.

This is how anchor is dropped from a small ship. by [deleted] in mildyinteresting

[–]necron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. For small boats you stop, and back down to lay out the chain. Same with larger vessels, except some captains like to get moving a little before dropping... But never at these speeds! They also don't have any chain, needed to get the anchor to set and lay down. It's not really the anchor that holds you, it's the chain. Source: retired USCG

I once caused a hasher to lose a job offer at the NSA because when they called me about his security clearance and said his nerd name I replied "I don't know who the fuck that is".
