When informing a friend that I'd be attempting to join the army as an officer after my two-year monitoring period is up, and mentioning that the eventual starting rank is second lieutenant, friend said:

"I dunno man, my dad was in the army for 8 years and only made sergeant"

Made me realize, you know, a lot of us civilian-types don't really know that much about the army.

Don't worry there, Mike. There's a new invention called the thermometer thats all the rage. I hear it will be making it's debut in Newfoundland pretty soon.
P.S.. make sure when you buy one, it says "oral" on the package.

You MUST be from rural Hant's County; everyone knows that to properly diagnose the flu -- it's the thermometer marked "rectal" on the packaging that Mike's mom & dad will need to purchase.

Although its early, I am going to give the Saturday Award to...I had to add the bolded part, so as not to suggest anyone Sgt/PO2 or above that is alive is a loser.

I still think PO2's & above living-in is loserville! And since this a forum, I guess I can say that.

Seems to be a popular line with the 13 year olds too.

I'm still trying to come up with the puuurfect response for it.

What? You work til 1630 on Fridays? That would be considered harassment or cruel and unfair punishment where I am!

Nah, not really.

The CSM was out of the office as he's the A/RSM, and the Officers were out attending "PD" (so Blackberries were turned off) ... someone had to answer the damn phones and all the emails streaming in.

Guess what ? -- I had more than one beer!!

Try mine: "It's completely fair, it's just not to your advantage, there's a difference."

Mike, your Mom can always get the "heat activated" strip thermometer. You can tape it to your forehead and they can come by and just read it anytime.

Brother in Law "Like... a real Dragon?"
Sis (rolling eyes) "Yes ... of course... a REAL one... a REAL dragon... "
