[Velocity173]

Cut the umbilical cord Shindig. You're a future Apache pilot now. Grow a set!

[Tradewinds]

Some people just can't stop playing, even after the clock hits zero.

 

Seriously, get some help.

Don't worry, they make an exception for 09W's

The best part is you would think everyone would be ignoring him now that it's official that he's a fake. I see a lot more pages in this threads future lol

[Shindig]

Im starting to do pt since i havent in a while ... my situps Are still good but push ups arent so my recr showed me how to move my arms in the 2 min drill to use different arm muscles ....thats my big prob is those and running I need to get my wind back, i might get some new shoes if i can find a deal or store that gives a military discount but will see ....

[A-aron]

If you are already selected, why even bother working out? I hear that you will get all the running and pushups you will ever need while in basic.

[Shindig]

bc I want to be ready from start

[A-aron]

What happens if you hurt yourself before you even go to basic?

[dovq2011]

Shindig, out of curiosity, what is your BCT class date and where? And do you know what class you're in?

[r22butters]

You know this guy is your side's Butters,...only he somehow got hired!?

 

That means that if he were in fact a real person that the Army's standards are even lower than those of a commercial operator who hires 200 hour Robby Rangers to fly tourists around in an R-44 for minimum wage.

 

Think about it.

It's been established that he isn't real.

Maybe... maybe not. Maybe he's just a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude.

A Tropic Thunder reference....I love it.

I did my initial security interview in October/November. Signed my contract 3 weeks ago but don't ship to BCT until May. a few of my bosses have already gotten the clearance forms to fill out and send back. Should I be expecting a one-on-one interview as well before I go to BCT?

Did they contact your bosses because they were your prior jobs or did you put them down as references? I'm a bit curious as to how that works

[A-aron]

They actually contacted people for your Secret?

[Shindig]

ok i went to the racks room shoes and got a great deal bc they offer military discounts 10% off and on top of that I get 1/2 the second pair so i got some sandles

 

So I got some shoes nike downshifter 6. but i wont be able to bring them to boot bc we have to wear boots all time im thinking...but these will be good for jogging to train....i'm wondering if i should start running uphill with weights bc i heard the army runs with big sacks etc in boot camp

[dovq2011]

A-aron that's not unheard of - I've had to do several interviews on behalf of others' Secret clearances. Like I said, some investigators don't appreciate jokes though...

 

Investigator: Has Mr. M misused government equipment before?

Me: Define "misuse of government equipment."

Investigator: I can't really quantify that for you.

Me: Well, we were in a military college together, and he threw his chair at the wall to try and kill a spider... does that count?

Investigator: ... yes or no, did he misuse government equipment?

Me: ... no, he didn't. It was a chair...

[A-aron]

I'm guessing I wasn't interesting enough for them to require to contact people. I was lucky and my investigator was a DEA pilot and so naturally most of the interview was talking about flying.

I told myself I would no longer post on this thread but I couldn't help but reply to this. This one seriously made me laugh out loud. Whoever this is, you've outdone yourself this time. Hats off to you.
