What to say... Well, I am an element leader (of 5 student leaders, 4 element leaders and 1 Dorm Chief) in my dorm. Our 2 randomly assigned dorms were split into 3rd weekers and above and 2nd weekers and below so on our MOS' yesterday we had no failures and our dorm setup kicks ass.
The attention to detail and the high inspection standards are insane compared to street flights (because we have lots of time to do shit here). My boots are insanely shiny, look professionally done, by hand. It took me 4 hours and it took one gaggle of retarded zero weekers to step on my boots to destroy it.
I was writing this letter about this but I'll type it instead. There are so many flakes that come through med hold, it's amazing, people who you wonder how they survive in world. I am happy I am not one of these people. I hate dealing with them and now that I've been in the 319th so long the TI's trust my opinion as a trainee/student leader, so we usually get them either send to the 2nd week or below dorm or if they are really bad we send them to BAS (behavioral) who 7 out of 10 times discharges them for having major mental issues (failure to adapt). The power is sometimes overwhelming.
I was a seperation guide for the squadron too. TI's and civilians don't really deal with bringing seppers (ppl seperating), so they have a couple of "responsible trainees" do it. If one of them gets an attitude or causes problems we have the power to keep them here. I've done it twice and both of them are still here 3 weeks later. Scary. THe job was depressing as hell tho (sending all of those happy ppl home 5 days a week) so I quit it tho.
On the whole I am doing very well, I want to graduate and all that stuff, you know? I want those blues. I can wait. My foot has noticably improved in the last 2 weeks, so I can't wait to go back to training in a month or two.
I'll add to this as I think of shit, plus I gotta do my 2 hour call in to my squadron, so BBL.
Here are some pics of me!
