Thinking about going back into the Marines... someone talk some sense into me. :wacko:
4am(ish) wake up.
Being yelled at for no reason.
30 second shower time in either freezing or burning hot showers.
Can't go to the bathroom till lights out without getting in trouble.
Crappy food made by the chow-tards.
Soda burns the crap out of you if you DO manage to get some.
No matter how much you eat, you're always hungry.
You get forced a crap ton of food on your tray, and you get in trouble for not finishing it on time.
Marching for endless hours in the hot sun or cold rain.
Doing your shift for fire-watch, then woken up for a second shift as punishment for what someone else did.
Being forced to shave dry, against the grain, because another recruit was stupid enough to try and skip out of shaving.
Always referring to yourself in the 3rd person with "This recruit"
Spending your whole day waiting for mail-call, IF they allow you to get mail, and hoping that you get even ONE letter, and hoping beyond all hope that it doesn't have a picture or food in it.
Having to take a crap infront of other guys with no stall doors, and sometimes no walls.
AND seeing people (or being)
Get an M16 to the side of the face.
Pushed down the ladder-well by a DI
Pushed in to a rifle-rack by a DI.
Hit/choked out by a DI.
Being physically and mentally harassed until you're a shell of a person where all you do is wake up, march, yell "KILL" every other word, and go to sleep for an hour until it's your turn to wake up for fire-watch.
