Today, I enlisted in the military. My dad now finds it necessary to act like a drill sergeant. This includes yelling at me everywhere we go to prepare me for basic training. Training begins in four months. FML

He's just trying to get you used to it now. But, thank you for enlisting.

Just get used to it now, it's what I do for a living and I most certainly enjoy sculpting the young mind.

I get that you are an instructor and more power to you for that, but at 25, the young minds you are sculpting are what? Six years younger than you? I'd get a few more years on you before trying to credibly say you sculpt "young" minds. Just saying.

I'm not a life coach, I teach what is required for Navy life, I fail to see how my age has anything to do with that. Taking a civilian and making them fully capable sailors is very much so molding individuals.

Um, #77, just because the guy is young doesn't mean the minds he is sculpting aren't equally young. Give him a break.

Be in the right place, at the right time, in the right uniform, and do what you are told and you will be fine OP!

man, you should be happy about that. my ex husband was a marine, and before i went to army basic, he did the same shit, and he trained with me, got my run time up to par, and everything. had it not been for acting like a drill sergeant and pushing me through all that, i would have been a lot less prepared. be grateful. drill sergeants aren't your friends. get used to it, soldier.

That's really not bad though in my opinion. My husband is in Basic Training right now and the entire time before leaving he was terrified for the time to come. I think being strong before you go will be a good thing. :)

Practice making your bed! And you need to be able to bounce a quarter on it. If the DI cant bounce a quarter on your bed you will come back from chow time with you and your groups bunks outside in the rain. Just a Heads up
