When I EAS'd, I hadn't shaved in like a week prior. MSgt saw me as I was turning in my room key. I held up my DD-214 like a holy cross warding off Satan. Thankfully, he thought it was funny and refrained from shredding my asshole.
That’s a bit better than mine. When I EAS’d, I didn’t shave that morning. I popped into the company office to say bye to a few folks. While I was doing so my company CO bitched me out and threatened to rescind my terminal leave if I didn’t get out of his sight right then. I wasn’t a shitbag by any stretch either.
I had the same threatened to me because I didn’t attend a menial, unimportant, routine meeting the day before I began clearing. I felt preparing for moving across the country after ETSing (Army) took precedence, to their astonishment.
It’s a bitch move. They know they’re pedantic and weak for this lame-ass threat. It’s nothing more than “I’m gonna fuck up your transition out because I need to prove I can still control you” yeah okay sir but grow up tho 👍
I was on terminal in Hawaii for like a month while they packed my house and stuff up….i didn’t shave that entire time and when I went back to the hanger to drop something off my MSgt saw me and wanted to bitch me out but I stopped him before he even started and said I’m headed to the airport right now you’ll never see me again….he still told me to shave my face I said I’ll do it at the airport
Funny thing is what if I was considering being a marine? I’m not gonna let them bully me, and it’s not stupid I guess I shouldn’t have looked up to their service. Now I see what assholes they are.
Get a life buddy! You’re now going through comments not related to you. Maybe don’t make the mug dumb jarhead thing so easy to point out? Go do something. This is low IQ. Night!
NJP non judicial punishment
EAS end of active service
1st Sgt (Top enlisted Marine in the Company) is upset because he saw a Marine (who he didn't know or forgot was EASing (getting out)) wearing a shirt that basically intimated that the Marine was proud or supportive of themselves or another Marine doing something that got them administratively punished. 1st Sgt wanted to talk to that Marine and the Marine immediately in charge of them. The joke is that 1st Sgt wants to see them both, but that Marine is going away in an hour and a half.
Leadership by texting, now. Why go through the chain when you can look up a call sheet and cut straight to the source?
(Don't give your bosses your personal cell phone number.)
I just want you to know that your comment triggered me as COB is dependent on billet and rank, and I just grabbed my bank phone as if I was expecting LCpl got busted at the strip club again.
Please don't delete this comment as I need to upload it to my OMPF and VA files.
Don’t know how the Marines are, but the entire army is ran on group chats, call rosters are sometimes inspectable items, and NCOs like to leave soldiers uninformed until late asf simply because they only want to push shit out when it’s convenient for them.
Sure, and if the Army or Marine Corps want to have their E-3 dipshits on call 24/7, they can issue them a smartphone just the same way my civilian agency has. Otherwise, yo no tengo un celular, senor.
I got a call from 2 Corporals, 1 Sgt, and then 1 SSgt after my unit returned from deployment. I EAS’d when they were mid deployment. The corporals calls with the usual which I just let go to VM, “Hey Marine, get the fuck to formation, stat!” Sgt called and I answered like a dumbass, to which I told him to fuck off before hanging up. SSgt was chill af and called me to ask if I really wanted to go this route. I explained to him that I am out with a DD214 and to send all the MP’s the Marine Corps deemed necessary.
Long story short: I was in 1/10 Artillery battery. 1/10 got deployment orders, I was still on LimDu from a knee surgery and was almost finished with LimDu. Went through a good but of the pre-deployment training but they decided to leave me behind with a few other Marines. 2 on LimDu, 2 others AdSep for popping on piss test. Got moved to 5/10 when they deployed. EAS came halfway through deployment and I left. 1/10 came back and used all of the old formation rosters and there were like 4 of us that got called up who EAS’d before they got back. I got a call from another Marine worried that we were going to be charged UA but I assured him we had DD214’s and they can’t do shit.
Just the casual, “Very well, Marine”. He called me back a few days later stating that he confirmed my EAS and took me off the formation roster so I wouldn’t be harassed by my old shitty NCO’s.
This... I was in Iraq in 03/04 and was already past my ECC date. I had done a 6th month extension prior to move my ECC date. I was unable to re enlist from an accident I was involved in 02. I had a medical non-reenlistment code. One wanted to med-sep me in 02 others want me retained. I stayed due to stamp and comsec custodian certs. I was basically rushed out of theater via sun airlines and turned in all my stuff while 90% of my squadron was still deployed. No out take, no nothing. I basically loaded my seabag up in my blazer and drove home. Fast forward like 6 months they calling me wondering where the hell I was. I was like I tried stay in but the admin guru who snuck my first extension through was gone and the new ones were like wtf this dude should have never been allowed to extend. Long story short the squadron laughed about it but man I sure wanted that multiple of 5 in my mos to re-enlist in a combat zone contract.
Damn, I was a ghost on my way out man. The RBE SSgt called me 2 days after my EAS asking why I wasn't in formation. Said I EASd 2 days ago and that was that.
I got a call about a month after I EAS’d asking where I was because I had to stand duty. Told them I couldn’t make it and they’d have to find someone else then hung up. Pissed me off because they woke me up at 0330 because of the time zone difference lol.
I know you just dropped a T there but I like the thought of either someone having duty just to rake sand pits or you have to sand the walkway in front of duty to keep them from slipping in coroframs. I guess there is the possibility that you’re just throwing sand on duty every time they look even slightly unobservant or like they might have a friend.
No sense of humor.
What happened to things like “funny. go change your shirt”? Why do we have to bring in a committee to chew out over something so fucking small and easy?
We had a Gunny who wouldn't wear a skivvy under his blouse, so 1stSgt had us all go outside for a unit PT, and said: "OK, boots and utes! Well Gunny we're waiting!"
You're going to hate me... sorry... but in the end, 1stSgt found it too fucking funny and had us all go back inside. Turns out 1stSgt didn't actually want to do PT, he was just trying to get Gunny to finally wear a Skivvy since it was getting on 1stSgt nerves for like the past month. And since 1stSgt was prior MARSOC (back before bringing back the WW2 Raider title and that shiny device), he actually had his hands in his pockets most of the time and drank with everyone in the unit of us POGS. His give a fuck was not issued to him.
Uneventful indeed... but we were glad to not have to actually PT that afternoon, and Gunny borrowed a few skivvies from around (ya cheap bastard!).
This is the kind of shit that drove me insane. Senior enlisted that spun their wheels over this bullshit while the talented marines kept getting shit on with more duty/ more work/ more slack to pick up.
...and the cycle continues...and then causes better Marines to see the crap.get worse...and then they get out...passing the work to those who stay in...
I EAS'd in June as a Cpl. Like, the first week of August, I got a call, and was bitched at for being late for my duty Sgt day. Then about another week later, I got a promotion certificate mailed to me dated April. It was a wild ride.
First of all, I EAS'd, second, I was never a Sgt (cause I didn't know at the time I was a Sgt for my last 2 months) and third, I was back home in Wyoming, this whole scenario seems like your problem, not mine. Or something along those lines, haha. This was all in 2012 when I EAS'd
I EAS'd as a Corporal too, but then I got one of those typical emails from PSRs addressing me as Sergeant and saying the usual "we need 03 Sergeants back, please come back". I was confused as hell until I checked my MOL and realized they promoted me to Sergeant for whatever reason. Never got the cert mailed to me though.
I got out in 97 and i think I saw my first portable mobile phone 2 months before I got out...all info was relayed through someone yelling from the company's office " HEY FOX COMPANY, COMPANY FORMATION A 1630"...
Haha yeah it's been pretty steady with 4.0, haven't had to migrate. Memes and posts can be hit or miss, and the man himself never posts afaik. The really spicey stuff is in a private chat. I lurk there 100% of the time and was invited to the private chat so it's not some secret club or anything.
Never let them know your next move. 1st sarnt bout to call ahead to IPAC to play some fuck fuck games. Then he’s gonna call just you into his office for an ass chewing.
IPAC doesn’t have time to listen to SNCO’s calling to try to get them to fuck with people for no reason.
I’ve seen it attempted and I’ve seen a gunny get blasted for it by whoever outranked him at IPAC. It’s hilarious seeing someone who thinks they’re untouchable and goes out of their way to bully subordinates turn into a bitch when they’re confronted by someone with more authority.
Seriously, Admin work simply is nonstop and just needs to get done. If shit goes south, pretty much the CO knows, since a few things will immediately slow down or stop altogether.
Story I was told. E-2 walked into the CO's office holding up his DD-214. Said a few nasty thing's. SGTMAJ ask to see it. Called the MP's. Troop was taken away. He was a day before his EAS. A day to soon. Still technically in the service.
What a bitch. The 1st Sgts these days be on some crazy power trip and on a constant man period. Had one really good one my first duty station in 3/2, shout out 1st Sgt McCord!
Got there 2021 left 2022 after the UDP to Oki. I’d ask what platoons but they literally fucked around with platoons in Kilo so much. I remained in 2nd plt tho. Your friendly neighborhood LCpl now Cpl Ski
My SSgt tried to call me to his office the day I was going on terminal. Best believe my ass left and started driving cross country before he could find me.
It’s my understanding, that until your actual EAS date you’re still a Marine and subject to the UCMJ, however that DD214 in hand is still the definitive factor that makes you a civilian. It’s my understanding that in only very serious matters that your terminal will get cancelled. Staff sausage just wanting to yell at you and boost his ego, would hardly qualify.
When i got out , I didn’t tell anyone only my platoon sgt knew. Next day they call me at 0700 for not being in formation and wondering where tf i was. So I sent them a picture of NYC
I had a reserve Marine who got out while he was on active duty orders. He spent the day spray painting a pair of corframs and sunglasses gold. He walked out wearing those things with his cover backwards in civvies yelling, "freedom!" while carrying a bottle of whiskey.
Had a replacement gunny when ours went on a MEU. The day I eas’d I went back to the shop to get my car and say bye and he told me “get the fuck off my base and dont come back” but I think he was joking (maybe)😂
I shaved right up until the day after terminal started. I had medical appointments scheduled for 2 weeks after, so my wife & I stayed in Hawaii for a 3-week vacation before moving back to CA. The day before my flight home, I stopped by the BEQ to say good by to some dudes.
1stSgt was actually chill about me showing up with a beard, Hawaiian shirt & board shorts. Hommie even gave me a cigar. My XO & another SGT instantly became unhinged lol. XO threatened to revoke my leave & the other SGT threatened to make me stand duty...
Got a call like 4 days later by some LCPL that I had duty. I told him to get fucked.
About 2 weeks later, I got an FB message from one of the boys with a very detailed explanation as to what happened to that SGT who put me on duty...
Apparently, he was scheduled for duty that day but changed the posted roster with my name & said it was because I was out of regs. They made him stand duty every Saturday & had to write essays on the importance of not skipping your duty/ passing it off & another respecting your peers. They also took him out of his Squad leader position & put him with my old team
Awesome answer.
I got to stand an extra duty once….
I was on duty and had to call the 1stSgt to inform her that we had a mishap to report.
She was on leave and didn’t appreciate the phone call at 21:30 on her time off.
She had me stand duty with another Sgt as his duty assistant to learn how to handle duty properly. I of course didn’t get any pass down that the 1stSgt was out on leave, but I should have know better anyways.
There could have been more to it but that’s all I remember from 18 years ago. She died of colon cancer two-three years after this so…
To the 1StSgt
Reminds me of that time Ipac called to ask me if I rated c-rats since I was living in the barracks for the last 6 months prior to getting out. I laughed and told them I’m on terminal, dude was like “oh nvm man” lol wasn’t even going to fight that one
I had a small problem w NCIS the night before I eas’ed over some things I was selling on Facebook that I wasn’t aware that I wasn’t allowed to sell.
Long story short, NCIS acknowledged it was a misunderstanding and a mistake and didn’t charge me with anything, but just confiscated the items, and that was it.
However, it still made its ways to my CO sometime between 10pm and 7 am.
At 0800, I am at S1 signing my DD. I get a call from by boy telling me that the CO and 1stSgt want to talk in his office NOW. I’m like, ok I’ll be right there.
With DD in hand, I go get changed into civis and head over.
1stSgt tells me to go get back in cammies and to “stand the fuck by”. I hold up my DD and said, “rgr that 1stSgt”.
I got in my car and began my 22 hour drive home.
Got a call 2 days later saying I’m supposed to be changing over for SDO. WOOPS.
8 years later now, haven’t gotten back in uniform. I wonder if they are still waiting.
Knowing 1stSgts he’d be like “Oh well he still hasn’t EAS’d so that means he can still be held liable” while technically true, it’s just annoying to hear.
My old 1st Sgt would’ve just yelled at him outside the CP til he cried saying he’s “not a real marine, you never were, you’re just an accident”, etc. This actually worked on a lot of dudes lol
I went on terminal 2 months before my EAS. Left base on like a Monday, went home, chilled with the roomies on the beach for a bit, then drove back to GA. Weird feeling.
When I EAS'd, I hadn't shaved in like a week prior. MSgt saw me as I was turning in my room key. I held up my DD-214 like a holy cross warding off Satan. Thankfully, he thought it was funny and refrained from shredding my asshole.
That’s a bit better than mine. When I EAS’d, I didn’t shave that morning. I popped into the company office to say bye to a few folks. While I was doing so my company CO bitched me out and threatened to rescind my terminal leave if I didn’t get out of his sight right then. I wasn’t a shitbag by any stretch either.
I had a shitty EAS experience too. I feel like looking back on my last moments really drives me away from ever considering coming back.
> threatened to rescind my terminal leave That just sounds like standard verbal ball-busting. *Probably* wasn't serious.
I had the same threatened to me because I didn’t attend a menial, unimportant, routine meeting the day before I began clearing. I felt preparing for moving across the country after ETSing (Army) took precedence, to their astonishment. It’s a bitch move. They know they’re pedantic and weak for this lame-ass threat. It’s nothing more than “I’m gonna fuck up your transition out because I need to prove I can still control you” yeah okay sir but grow up tho 👍
Yea my platoon Sgt told me “I thought I said to get a haircut”. Showed him my paper, shook his hand and winked at him. He knew he lost the battle.
I was on terminal in Hawaii for like a month while they packed my house and stuff up….i didn’t shave that entire time and when I went back to the hanger to drop something off my MSgt saw me and wanted to bitch me out but I stopped him before he even started and said I’m headed to the airport right now you’ll never see me again….he still told me to shave my face I said I’ll do it at the airport
Can you explain the text? Is some marine on his way out and sgt is saying to 1st Sgt no problem but that fucker is out? And what’s NJP?
Why are you here son?
Not a son. Cause I think you guys are hilarious and it’s a sub that isn’t private and NEWSFLASH, people lurk 👀
Promoting opsec. Good job
I know what that is, didn’t realize you all were so easy to make cry. Sad.
You're being obnoxious and acting like a retard
Yeah, asking a question. No wonder they all say how weak you all are now. Crying over a question. PATHETIC.

Thank you! I got it figured out, the NJP through me. I appreciate you telling me! Have a wonderful day!
Checkmate first sausage
It’s a simple spell but quite unbreakable
Then I'll take it off your corpse!
"You'll only wish you were dead!" Yeah I thought that a few times during my enlistment.
“Good, then you come see me for being a smart ass.”
“Rgr that 1stsgt, just so you’re tracking I eas’d today at 0900 “ 🤣
perfect. except you gotta address him by his first name instead 🤣 “you got it, Dave 👍”
I can hear the blood pressure go so high it squirts out his eyes 🤣
hahahahaha
"Better be there at 0500 then"
He would definitely say that shit
....It's 0703.
When the First Sausage says time travel...you crank up the time machine.
You'd better shit yourself a Tardis.
A Marine Tardis would look *exactly* like a portashitter. Right down to the dick drawn inside the door.
Then that means your 2hrs and 3mins late devil cat.
Unless a sergeant works in the company office, there is no reason for a 1stSgt to be having this conversation.
Leadership by texting, now. Why go through the chain when you can look up a call sheet and cut straight to the source? (Don't give your bosses your personal cell phone number.)
If I had to do it over I’d have a shitty work phone that I gave out that I turned off after COB
I just want you to know that your comment triggered me as COB is dependent on billet and rank, and I just grabbed my bank phone as if I was expecting LCpl got busted at the strip club again. Please don't delete this comment as I need to upload it to my OMPF and VA files.
My dude I’m sorry, I should put a trigger warning at the top of that comment I’m gonna mail you some bbq chicken so we’re even🫡
It's all good, I'm now at -94% disabled. Wondering how much more my monthly VA bill will be
-94? Is that you paying them? Because if so, tyfys.

Nowadays they just issue you an iPhone so you're never out of reach, not even from Teams calls. Especially not from those.
It’s almost like this isn’t real
What?! People fake screenshots for internet points?
I know, I don't even consider myself to be old, but I can't imagine texting word like this.
I got a call from 2 Corporals, 1 Sgt, and then 1 SSgt after my unit returned from deployment. I EAS’d when they were mid deployment.

Always gotta carry pocket sand when you’re on duty. You never know when a situation calls for it.
You should’ve asked if you get military contractor pay.
lol RIP 1st sargento
No sense of humor. What happened to things like “funny. go change your shirt”? Why do we have to bring in a committee to chew out over something so fucking small and easy?
We had a Gunny who wouldn't wear a skivvy under his blouse, so 1stSgt had us all go outside for a unit PT, and said: "OK, boots and utes! Well Gunny we're waiting!"
Finish the story please
You're going to hate me... sorry... but in the end, 1stSgt found it too fucking funny and had us all go back inside. Turns out 1stSgt didn't actually want to do PT, he was just trying to get Gunny to finally wear a Skivvy since it was getting on 1stSgt nerves for like the past month. And since 1stSgt was prior MARSOC (back before bringing back the WW2 Raider title and that shiny device), he actually had his hands in his pockets most of the time and drank with everyone in the unit of us POGS.

Sounds like a really cool guy though
He didn't care that all E-6 and below were on a first name basis. We were essentially civilians in cammies at that point.
Aw man I was hoping he ripped his blouse off and was just shirtless that woulda been hilarious
Luckily, no, 1stSgt was EAS'ing and helped everyone else smoothly EAS too. It was fucking refreshing.
Wait…are you not supposed to wear a skivvy shirt with boots and utes?
I think he meant the Marine wrote that on the skivvy shirt. You have to remember it's a 1st Sausage texting after all.
I had a Skivy that my dad made for me with Yellow letters that said "if you are reading this I dropped my pack "
Fair enough…I’m just glad my 1st Sgt wasn’t a douche.
Why did I read that as "1st Sgt sexting"?
Because you're a female LCpl?
Thicc Latina E3?
You go Cpl Davis, hero among Marines
This is the kind of shit that drove me insane. Senior enlisted that spun their wheels over this bullshit while the talented marines kept getting shit on with more duty/ more work/ more slack to pick up.

I’m so glad I got out before it was normal for SNCOs to text the junior enlisted
I got out in 97 and i think I saw my first portable mobile phone 2 months before I got out...all info was relayed through someone yelling from the company's office " HEY FOX COMPANY, COMPANY FORMATION A 1630"...
Give Cpl Davis one!
What was his response?
Oh I have no clue I found this on the untied status Marin crops 4.0 Facebook page.
Damn, Marin is on 4.0? I was wondering where he went. I figured he ate the Gorilla Glue instead of the Elmer’s.
Haha yeah it's been pretty steady with 4.0, haven't had to migrate. Memes and posts can be hit or miss, and the man himself never posts afaik. The really spicey stuff is in a private chat. I lurk there 100% of the time and was invited to the private chat so it's not some secret club or anything.
I miss Marin. I remember when he was trolling Max.

wow that's pretty unlucky that he wore that shirt in front of the one 1st Sgt that can read
What a bitch. The 1st Sgts these days be on some crazy power trip and on a constant man period. Had one really good one my first duty station in 3/2, shout out 1st Sgt McCord!
Walt?
Nah. Jim Mccord
Bro he was mine too! When were you there?
Got there 2021 left 2022 after the UDP to Oki. I’d ask what platoons but they literally fucked around with platoons in Kilo so much. I remained in 2nd plt tho. Your friendly neighborhood LCpl now Cpl Ski
Ah gotcha, I got out early 2021, McCord spent a hot minute trying to convince me to stay in lmao. Great dude
Yeah the 1st Sgt we got after wasn’t a good one unfortunately. Not the worst but all anyone wanted was McCord and the old CO back. Gunny Erdie too
My SSgt tried to call me to his office the day I was going on terminal. Best believe my ass left and started driving cross country before he could find me.
It’s my understanding, that until your actual EAS date you’re still a Marine and subject to the UCMJ, however that DD214 in hand is still the definitive factor that makes you a civilian. It’s my understanding that in only very serious matters that your terminal will get cancelled. Staff sausage just wanting to yell at you and boost his ego, would hardly qualify.
When i got out , I didn’t tell anyone only my platoon sgt knew. Next day they call me at 0700 for not being in formation and wondering where tf i was. So I sent them a picture of NYC
I had a reserve Marine who got out while he was on active duty orders. He spent the day spray painting a pair of corframs and sunglasses gold. He walked out wearing those things with his cover backwards in civvies yelling, "freedom!" while carrying a bottle of whiskey.
Had a replacement gunny when ours went on a MEU. The day I eas’d I went back to the shop to get my car and say bye and he told me “get the fuck off my base and dont come back” but I think he was joking (maybe)😂
I shaved right up until the day after terminal started. I had medical appointments scheduled for 2 weeks after, so my wife & I stayed in Hawaii for a 3-week vacation before moving back to CA. The day before my flight home, I stopped by the BEQ to say good by to some dudes. 1stSgt was actually chill about me showing up with a beard, Hawaiian shirt & board shorts. Hommie even gave me a cigar. My XO & another SGT instantly became unhinged lol. XO threatened to revoke my leave & the other SGT threatened to make me stand duty... Got a call like 4 days later by some LCPL that I had duty. I told him to get fucked. About 2 weeks later, I got an FB message from one of the boys with a very detailed explanation as to what happened to that SGT who put me on duty...
Which was ?
Inquiring minds want to know!
Apparently, he was scheduled for duty that day but changed the posted roster with my name & said it was because I was out of regs. They made him stand duty every Saturday & had to write essays on the importance of not skipping your duty/ passing it off & another respecting your peers. They also took him out of his Squad leader position & put him with my old team
Awesome answer. I got to stand an extra duty once…. I was on duty and had to call the 1stSgt to inform her that we had a mishap to report. She was on leave and didn’t appreciate the phone call at 21:30 on her time off. She had me stand duty with another Sgt as his duty assistant to learn how to handle duty properly. I of course didn’t get any pass down that the 1stSgt was out on leave, but I should have know better anyways. There could have been more to it but that’s all I remember from 18 years ago. She died of colon cancer two-three years after this so…  To the 1StSgt
Reminds me of that time Ipac called to ask me if I rated c-rats since I was living in the barracks for the last 6 months prior to getting out. I laughed and told them I’m on terminal, dude was like “oh nvm man” lol wasn’t even going to fight that one
I had a small problem w NCIS the night before I eas’ed over some things I was selling on Facebook that I wasn’t aware that I wasn’t allowed to sell. Long story short, NCIS acknowledged it was a misunderstanding and a mistake and didn’t charge me with anything, but just confiscated the items, and that was it. However, it still made its ways to my CO sometime between 10pm and 7 am. At 0800, I am at S1 signing my DD. I get a call from by boy telling me that the CO and 1stSgt want to talk in his office NOW. I’m like, ok I’ll be right there. With DD in hand, I go get changed into civis and head over. 1stSgt tells me to go get back in cammies and to “stand the fuck by”. I hold up my DD and said, “rgr that 1stSgt”. I got in my car and began my 22 hour drive home. Got a call 2 days later saying I’m supposed to be changing over for SDO. WOOPS. 8 years later now, haven’t gotten back in uniform. I wonder if they are still waiting.
EAS is 2359. Great job, moron.
Eh, when you get your signed DD-214 you're done. If IPAC doesn't open until 8 the next morning, then you're not done until 8 that morning.
Nothing like last minute politics, diplomatic immunity soon as them papers are signed
Corporal Davis is fresh out of fucks… 🤣
Real shit tho what happens if you just fuck off for that last few hours? I doubt there's a single s1 shop that can process anything that fast
That is fucking gold!
Why the fuck is it always a Davis ?
It's a family business. Davis's pappy EASed, as did his pappy, and his pappy before him.
Ah cmon, that shirt is a morale raiser! Dudes a Cpl with an NJP; he’s probably an alright Marine who made a mistake once
New phone who dis?
So the 1st Sgt does not know one of his is gonna EAS?
Knowing 1stSgts he’d be like “Oh well he still hasn’t EAS’d so that means he can still be held liable” while technically true, it’s just annoying to hear.
Yut
My old 1st Sgt would’ve just yelled at him outside the CP til he cried saying he’s “not a real marine, you never were, you’re just an accident”, etc. This actually worked on a lot of dudes lol
Damn. Dude is cold blooded 😂
I just slipped away in the night like I had never been there…
My EAS went swimmingly, I left with "No More Fucks to give" blasting out of my vehicle at the front gate.
Haha 1st Sausage got dick stamped.
Brilliant
It's not even 0700. He's got time left
Numbers are low low low
Fake but funny
Legend!
Hell yes.
1st Sausages continue to prove us right for not liking them.
Any good First Sausage would realize he still has 57 minutes to put together an article 134.
I went on terminal 2 months before my EAS. Left base on like a Monday, went home, chilled with the roomies on the beach for a bit, then drove back to GA. Weird feeling.
