I'm glad I could make you laugh. I could use a laugh right now too . . . I'm incredibly depressed and disillusioned lately.

I found out recently that almost 9 years in the military have all been for naught. Total waste of a third of my life, and I have nothing to show for it.

I've been called many things in life. I've never been accused of being inept before. But that's what my unit called me. They demoted me (administratively, not punitively, as if that's somehow supposed to make it sting less) for "inefficiency," the military term for "he's untrainable and worthless," and barred me from re-enlisting.

I had a squeaky-clean record before I came to this unit. If I had just gotten out in 2010 like I was supposed to, my record would be spotless. Extending for another year was the stupidest thing I ever did in the army.

It's pretty humiliating.

Why don't you break that off into another thread, Rourke?

9 years is a serious investment.

I'd be happy to discuss some options.

Sorry to hear that Non. The Army really ticks me off. Last week my son got a letter from the VA telling him that they were revoking his college benifits. AND want over $3500 back. From what I gather it is because he is no longer active duty. :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx: :xcensoredx:

Does FTA still stand for "fuck the Army?"

Sorry to here about the crap, Rourke.

Try to remember that you do have more to show for that 9 years than you think. In the long run, one set of pinheads can't screw your life up.

And also remember that "squeaky clean" is overrated. Only tv reporters and political hacks and academic know-nothings believe that the valuable and interesting people come without blemish.

Dont get me started on "performance reports" and the like. I've seen too many people who like to be in positions of writing them are pinheads.

Trust me, you aren't inept.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Nonstop, start with a JAG lawyer. See what they say. Figure out what you want to do. Transfer, charges dropped, or just get out, etc.
All else fails, and you know you are 100% in the right, to burn all bridges, just drop a line to your congressman & watch them scatter.

Zero2Cool (6h) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
