apparently someone didn't realize that the number they were dialing was to a building on a navy base...either that or they are seriously just that retarded.
someone called in a bomb threat into the barracks across from mine tonight. we spent the past hour sitting in the parking lot while they searched the barracks for "ordinance." of course, as everyone suspected, they found nothing. the thing is, who would reallllly call a military establishment with a bomb threat. i wouldn't doubt that they will find out who it is...and if they are military, especially a student here...they should probably crawl in a hole and die now...because the skipper will rip them a new asshole, i am sure. my thoughts are, is it really that exciting? how can someone seriously find that fun?!?
see, that's the one thing wrong with the military...they make it so hard to get out that people do stupid shit like this just so they can get caught and get kicked out. kids pretend to be crazy...eating boogers for months and shit...just to get out. i understand, they are giving us a ton of free training...they expect some return...but the things people do are ridiculous...it really shouldn't be like that! at all! they should really just be better at weeding people out in the recruiting process. recruiters are just so driven to recruit that they will seriously send anyone to great lakes (navy boot camp)! it looks good on them!!! that's wrong. i understand that we should award people who are very good recruiters and such but is this really working like this? recruiters teach you everything to lie about and exactly how to lie about it to cover your ass when you go to meps! which tampers with our military bearing before you even leave! the first military people we meet teach us how to lie...and they wonder why the navy has no respect for authority and is lacking courtesies and tradition. they don't even teach us what all the symbolism behind our uniform is. that's sad!!!! the marines can tell us what every color and stitch means on their uniforms.
i dunno, i am going on a rant! don't get me wrong, i absolutely love being in the navy. i just thing that it's kind of going to hell. the lack of respect and common courtesy (like i said) is just disgusting, on top of the absolute total disregard for military bearing.
okay, i am done now. bottom line is, some stupid fool called in a bomb threat and i was naked and it sucked...i had to find clothes and get outside a.s.a.p.
one more thing, that reminds me...i get outside when they evacuate us tonight and someone pulled their car up into the middle of the space we (evacuated sailors) are all standing in and they bump their loud as ghetto music. no one thought to organize us or anything until the petty officers came out totally flipping out! it's just sick how NOT seriously all these kids take the military...
now, i'm done!
by the way, i am totally in love! :)
