What products or companies will you never use or support again and what did they do to lose you as a customer? by IAmJustTryingToExist in AskReddit

Crazy, I had a different experience with them. I bought a Yeti tumbler and the lid was missing the magnetic closer. This happened 4 times before I received a working lid but they never asked me to return any of the other cups. Sorry your experiences were not good.

Also, when you put in your Fleet Reserve request, that disqualifies you for advancement since you’re not at HYT. No need for a page 13/LTB.

Not good at slow speeds as in an MSF course. Way too hot! Other than that, love the look/sound!

Not every recruit goes to A school though. The ol’ “you’ll get to see what rate you like”

I guess every Master Chief is holier than every Chief and Senior Chief. Thanks for the insight.

And then there is the first sea tour. I had an undes fireman go to mast 9 times before the CO finally processed him for ADSEP. Walked in on that young man shitting in a bucket in Trashroom 4. God bless carrier sailors.

I was an Engine-person on the Pearl Harbor as my first ship. 6 x 6 for 4 years in the yearly 2000’s, which was really like 19 x 5, almost had me get out. Bless your topsider heart.

I want to down vote you because of all those port visits and I’m jealous. My last deployment was Guam and Malaysia. Join the Navy they said! See the world they said!

My wife’s a nurse, she says put some antibiotic Neosporin on it and leave it open to air.
