[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4002342, member: 5412"] Nope, but I didn't have a choice. Draft notice in hand and went to the recruiter. With all the wokeness and BS the military are subjected now just like it's going in the workplace, I wouldn't make it long before a dishonorable discharge if I were subjected to the training they are putting on now. I've talked to the younger guys that are still at the power plant I retired from. They say I wouldn't make it there now, not because of job skills but because I didn't put up with the enhanced safety bullshat and social training they are having to endure in the workplace. You can't get your work done because of "safety regulations" put in place by pups wet behind the ears that just got a college industrial safety degree without one day of actual work in his background. Well, it has the "potential" to be dangerous, therefore I have to designate this area as dangerous, and the safety BS starts. Your required to wear a harness to get into a 10 foot high scaffold with double rails? Give me a freeking break. I did that job with a ladder and a bag of tools and a step ladder just like every instrument guy did it before me since the plant was built in the 70's and nobody ever got hurt, but the college boy saw the "potential for safety" and made that 30 minute job to change the thermocouple in the belly of the turbine from a 30 minute job to a three day job. Stupidly insane thinking. From what I'm hearing, the military is going down this same rabbit hole which is why they can't get recruits that actually want to serve. [/QUOTE]
