Mmm Mmm Galley food

I didn't mind Ney Hall...I lived chow to chow to get through OCS. I still have a week left, but I'm doing a lot of my outbriefs and what not now.

The main thing that would send me into a rage would be the lunch ladies who would decide to come sweep up around the salad bar RIGHT during the lunch/dinner rushes.

A close second was when the milk always ran out.

Wow, quite a bit different from Pensacola! Chow used to be the one of the most stressful parts of the day.
 
Thanksgiving was phenomenal. Looking back I can't figure out how I ate everything...I think we might have been given regular silverware...but that was the best meal I think I've ever eaten. Galley Thanksgiving is no joke!

In Newport we used the same chowhall as the rest of the base so it's way toned down. Ballistics are (kinda) secured, as are most of the other DI shenanigans.

The worst was fridays when your choice is steak or king crab legs. I always thought that was the Chow hall getting in on the OCS mind fuck action.
 
Wednesday, November 5th - Cheeseburger Wednesday. The 30 minute rule didn't apply to 06-09, as Gunny S*** took his frustrations out on us...probably the worst beating we had at OCS - with bellys full of cheeseburger goodness, I threw up. =)

All of the DIs were nuts that day, we had a theory - that maybe it had something to do with the election results.
 
Holy shit, ain't that the truth...

I was always put off by the 'progressive' integration of handicapped persons into the Rhode Island workforce, and specifically at Ney Hall. Every once and a while, one of them would go on a rampage in the scullery, and the QRF would be called in to subdue them with tranq darts. Oh, and never, ever use the salt shakers. EVER. Ever wonder why the shit's all clumpy? Those 'integrated' folks had a tendency to lick them while they were cleaning up.

Of course, I was there about ten years ago, so things may have changed.

I watched one of the handicapped workers at Ney Hall lick the scullery window one time. I was too shocked to laugh. I had no idea about the salt shaker shit, that is just disgusting.

One day they all started making fun of us, they were all going "Kill!" back in the scullery...we were trying so hard not to laugh.

I have nothing against the proper integration of handicapped people into the work force at all. Given the proper situations, its definitely a good thing. But to have people who will do things like lick a salt shaker (handicapped or not) and then put it back on the table working around food isn't necessarily the best idea.
 
My class witnessed two of the handicapped workers get in an arguement one day, it was pretty funny. It sounded like this: "I'm going to tell the boss you did this!" "Oh yeah? I'll tell the boss about that one time you did that and I'll get you fired!" They were screaming damn near at the top of their lungs by the way as they were serving us our food..
 
They finally got rid of the handicapped. I can't believe they'd give me the stink eye whenever I asked for more eggs.
 
my wife thinks it is disturbing I am looking forward to OCS after what she reads here =)

Maybe it is because I have blacked out most of the bad memories, or because they occurred on little sleep and empty stomachs (no matter how much food we were given, I was still always hungry), but I have more good times memories of OCS than bad ones. Pretty soon you'll be sharing and bragging about "worst beating" stories like badges of honor... Like the one time Gunny soandso beat the H-Class roll ins so bad a few of them had to go to the hospital with Rhabdo.. I wasn't there but that sounded like fun
 
you let your wife on airwarriors? terrible.

Well I use my TV as a monitor so she see's it.

BTW have they started talking about when they would begin training for the P-8 or are they going to train for the P-3 for the next couple of years and then send the maritime guys back for like a type rating when P-8's are fleet ready?
