5 Types of Military Suck We All Love to Hate

Wait all that and not one mention of being around a Grunt and having to listen to them talk about that gimmie blue cord from Benning, or the Cav Scout who thinks he's the hardest thing since woodpecker lips, or the MI guy who wants every single sound effect possible in his powerpoint presentation (that he's not even briefing), the MP who actually tells you "Do not confuse your rank with my authority"...I personally know that one. Good for an Art15. Or the SigO who has the personality of squirrel dung, and the same ability to express anything that's not in 1's and 0's? CQ sucked (I'm not that ballsy to have everyone sleeping like those soon to be smoked stupid Soldiers were), Bad hours? Name some GOOD hours. Let's try that on for size. Antiquated promotions? Are the DEMOTIONS antiquated? How about when 1SG has you locked up and is calling your mama bad names through you for something stupid you did, but it's her fault for making you? Scoring a 181 on the APFT is a quick way to being lit up by the next NCO in your support chain. It may be "passing", but almost every unit in the Army tries to get the highest average in a BN. You just happen to have Mr. or Ms. 180 is good enough will make your life suck quickly.
Things I hated (not really)
CAT4/MEDPROS
Blue cords that weren't ethernet capable (after awhile it feels as if you went through Sand Hill yourself). At least the ethernet cords serve a purpose
Looking at S1 at 1530 talking about "they got training that starts at 1600. Come back tomorrow".
CSM/1SG AR670-1 radar.
Former Combat Arms Joes who just can't let go. They're about as useful as a blue non ethernet cord
"These new Soldiers have it sooo easy compared to when...) Dude we have it SOO ESASY cuz you and your peers made it so. It's not like a PV2 is going to GEN Miley's office to complain...wait that happened
DENTAC even for a checkup
Finance when you have a pay issue (please fill this out and have your commander or 1SG sign it)...I'm in your office and NOW I get the damn form?
The asshats at PT who seriously want "ONE MORE MILE 1SG, ONE MORE MILE". If I could waterboard all the asshats who've done this, senior NCO promotions would've been damn near at 95%. After three-five miles, the ONLY thing I want to hear IS NOT C-130 rolling anywhere, but Quick-time March....if this is you, just lean forward and choke yourself with your hand hero.

And most of all.....
I'M TIRED OF HEARING EVERYONE WHO SERVED IS A FREAKIN HERO.

Truisms. I remember those 5 items only too well; in the Army. Capt Dwayne Conyers
