Promoted... finally

[thermal]

Well, i finally got promoted to E-7 (Chief Petty Officer) in the Navy. I'm going through some rigorous and demanding training right now. It's great but not too good for my project. So for the time being, Project: Teg is suspended eventhough I only have a total of 20 hrs left to get it up running. This also means less time on here........

man, that really sucks for the teg, but hey it's the career that matters most

[AzCivic]

congrats! dang, how old are you?

[IALuder]

congrads. so will you make more money for the teg?

[GT40FIED]

Holy shit Arnel...I outrank you. Oh...wait...I'm not in the Navy. I guess I just mean I'm more awesome.:D

Seriously though man...congrats.

[Wren57]

Congrats on the promotion... very nice! What do you do in the Navy?

[thermal]

thanks everyone

I'm a Gas Turbine Tech (mechanical). I work on big ass turbos... he he he.....I work on jet engines for shipboard propulsion and power generation. So basically i work on all aspects of propulsion engineering and auxilary systems including pumps, valves, compressors,etc. on a 200,000 BHP/ 1.8million ft/lbs of torque...... twin shaft.

I'll make more money but I'll be getting deployed in a few months. I hope I get to finish my teg before I leave.

I'm old mang. It took me 14yrs to get here eventhough I was eligible for promotion 3 yrs ago.

[Mischief]

So that makes you around 32?

[AzCivic]

Xome to think of it, I haven't been promoted/got a raise in years. Then again, I work retail (when I'm not at school) so I do my job incredibly half assed.

I'm old Lyna. It's kinda of weird cuz I dont really hang out with people my age.... I guess it's cuz of my interests and life style.

Chris I'll be deploying when you get back. The teg is gonna be stuck in the garage.... that shit really sux! I'll have my fiance' drive it every now and then. I just hope she doesnt get pulled over... lol.

Thanks again everyone! I'm still doing my "Chief's Initiation"...
