That isn't getting into the normal everyday stuff! Paperwork is needed but I still hate doing it.
And it is pretty much every time I get a Marine trained up toa level I am good with he (or she) gets sent off someone else so I have to train the next one *again*. It is annoying!
Re: PRIVATEmarinegrandpaJanuary 3 2009, 00:07:57 UTC
Well someone has to. Still annoying.
Yeeeees. But I get fond of the little idiots when they're here and then they go off and either get their fool selves killed or turn currupt and it hurts. And I've been trying for years to make their chances better on neither of those happening

Well you can't have it your way all the time. I know it's hard to let something you've grown fond of leave, but all you can really do is hope for their best. And I mean, really, what kind of person wouldn't want that from their mentor?
I'm sure you did a fine job working on them, Garp. Some of them just probably just were give too much temptation so they gave in; not remembering what you taught them. Or if they go and get killed, well at least they died fighting.

Of course you miss them, they're people after all. People have a tendency to get attached to people they have confidence in. I've done it more than I should have, but. It's in the past.
They're people, Garp. You can't get over the human instinct.
I'm not mocking anyone, I'm just saying. Pirates do the same thing, and trust me, I know.
Do I get a uniform?

And isn't that your job? To get them up to a level your happy with, and then have them move onto better things?

It doesn't get easier either. You'll think it would with practice but it doesn't.
I hate it when people mock Marines for falling in battle. I just. That is just not something I can forget or forgive very easily.

Wait what is the second sentence refering to again?
I'm not saying you're mocking. I'm complaining about other people who do. The little shitfucks.

Alright. And it's the people who mock who don't understand what it means to be apart of a family.

Hmmm. Thanks for listening.
