Actually I just need to vent from all the stupidity that's been going on (even beyond his bit...much much beyond...) but frankly given how horribly stupid it is and how much it's pissed me off I do see the humor in it so here goes! I'm actually away on exsersise right now, and we just went into full-blown mode today with insergents, suicide bombings, mortar and air raids and not to mention CBRN attacks (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear), pretty much the whole nine yards. We just issued the weapons yesterday and I must say I pride myself on my rifle handling, but today I had a slip up. We have to keep up with normal work and this idiot co-worker wouldn't get off my back, so furious as I was with her attitude I just continued working and even tried to help her out by leaving the main shelter and heading to our second one to get some paperwork. Now the two are really close together but whenever you leave a shelter you have to load your weapon and whenever you enter one you have to unload it, which gets to be a real pain when your only walking a few paces. Anyway I went over, did all the handling drills, got the paper work and on the way back I was thinking about how stupid it was that I'll be unloading my weapon that I didn't even really realize when I loaded it. Still pissed at the girl I didn't notice that my mag was still loaded and I ended up getting a Neglagent Discharge which is an automatic charge (we only have blanks because it's an exsersise but it's still deadly important) so because of me being nice to the !@#$ I'm now getting fined. So that's the crappy bit. The funny part comes after where I'm in the RSM's tent (the regulations guy who makes sure everything is running efficiantly) when we get hit with CBRN and have to get completly suited up (so that's a led filled suit, two layers of gloves and a gas mask that generally limits viewing and breating) so here I am, first time ever being charged and the RSM, who's handed out dosens of charge reports before going "Well how's this for a first!" He couldn't even write up anything because of the gloves, I had to write up my own charge report! After that is all the follow up stuff where they go through what all's going to happen and where they confirm that I am actually compitent with the rifle (which I am) but because of all the action going on they couldn't give me the follow up briefing, then the mortor attack begin and I can't go outside to do my proofing with my rifle! I end up being stuck in Ops with my bloody mask and leden suit for two hours twiddling my thumbs while everyone else is running around me in Ops runs around like chicken with their heads cut off! It was hallarious! If it wasn't for the fact that I was getting charged it would of been the highlight of the exsersise! Anyhoo that's my story, so what's all of yours? What's something that happened to you that was crappy that ended up being pretty goofy? |

Well, if you want to see stupidity at it's best: I was working in a warehouse some years ago, and my supervisor was a woman of a certain age with no sense of planification or organisation.... At all... We are a total of 3 guys in the "re-supply team" and our job is to find place to put the stuff that come in from our supplier. Of course, the space is limited and is a constant issue... So we're usually wasting our time placing things in one place as ordered by miss Know-it-all, then realising that we don't have enough space to put the whole order on the racking, we put it somewhere else, and ear about it from her later... We're loosing time doing what she want the way she want, which mean that unprocessed order are pilling up, which she in turn blame on us... So all in all a perfectly fulfilling job... :rolleyes: July rolls in and it's time for her vacation... We're left without a supervisor! Yay! Then the warehouse manager come to us saying that he want all unprocessed order gone at mid-august. But miss Know-it-all isn't here, and we organise ourselves, cleaning everything by mid-July to the shock of everybody... Sure about getting a raise, we're confidently waiting the return of miss Supervisor... She walks in, see that we've cleared everything, organised everything, and completed all the paperwork, which se never succeed to do herself... And give us "a hard time" because of it... Flustered, she even send me to the manager office! So I sit with the guy, explain the situation and make sure he understand my point. He give me 2 choices: either I walk off the door by myself, or he shove me out! Here's the answer I gave to that: "So basically, you're telling me that increasing productivity, gaining space, reducing cost and procesing time isn't part of our company objective? Okay then, I'll just go announce that I leave to the Human Resources" So I walk to the HR department, walk in the 2nd office, and announce my demission demission to the lady there. She ask me: "Why are you leaving so suddenly?" I answer: "Well I've never heard of a company who would s*** on an employee who make them save money and improve productivity. And frankly, that's all what miss Know-it-all and mister I-manage-here are doing right now..." Her answer came to me like the best of elixir: "Well, you might wanna wait about that demission thing... Starting next week both of them will no longer be working here... And you're suppose to be promoted..." |

:lol: Dude that's awsome! Actually I'm in Supply as well and I know exactly what your talking about, people tend to rotate around a lot with us and whenever we get a new boss more often than not they get us all to completly reshape the warehouse, then put it all back because they realize it was better the way it was...
heh, yeah sorry I am. Actually Air Force, which is why everything is so screwed up; none of the officers have ever done a field exsercise before :rolleyes:
Hell where else can you get paid to dodge Arti-Sims (artillary simulation rounds) as you shoot at The Enemy while fighter jets fly overhead in an arial dog fight...damn and I'm supposed to just do warehousing! Yes I'm brainwashed. So nobody else has a stupid story their willing to share?[/color] |
