At least they didn't treat you to a two-week-long PowerPoint presentation.
...on the previous version of the system.
...the month before the training was updated to the most recently fielded version.
...taught by a retired Army guy.
...from Texas.
...who won't stop telling stories about his Army days.
- pault 9y agoHey, what's wrong with Texas?
- logfromblammo 9y agoYou ever notice how most people never tell you what state they're from unless you ask them? It's almost like they don't believe their state of origin to be all that important to their personal identity. Some of those people might even be from Texas. But the hombre from Texas is not one of those people. He will drive for 30 minutes, past dozens of ordinary, mundane restaurants, to reach the nearest Texas-style barbecue restaurant, run by a fellow expatriate Texan, who shoulders the burden of living outside of Texas for the sake of fellow Texans who tragically cannot be in the best state all the time, yet need to regularly consume bits of Texas in order to survive. Ironically, Texas has so many people in it, all constantly surrounded on all sides by Texas, that you cannot easily identify that guy until he actually leaves the state. Also, the thing that's wrong with Texas is football. That is easily 120% of my problem with Texas.
