I’m tired of living a life without feeling so today I did something positive about it. It remains to be seen whether or not the Navy will actually be able to aid me in this endeavor, or if I will simply receive your standard issue “Eat Motrin and drink more water” treatment.

I hate this organization. The real world can't be this retarded. There are a few cards to play, but the process will be a bitch and cluttered with those khaki bastards. On a side note, I'm a four monther. :) I feel your pain. I hate this organization. The real world can’t be this retarded.

I think the biggest problem with the Navy is that the number of people in it doesn't change with the actual work to do. For instance, I was in a fighter squadron, had a very difficult job, two wars to fight, the airplanes were very hard to keep flying, and we were on a boat that led to a lot of aviation maintenence issues. Then I was in a <i>strike</i> fighter squadron that had brand new airplanes, we went to a modern ship (The Lincoln), no war that needed naval aviation's help, and no mission. Guess which command had the most assholes?
