Pat Riot Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Reminds me of similar discussions in the Navy. Bottom line, everyone has an important job to do. I remember an argument broke out on the mess decks. Some brainiac offended the head mess cook and said something like "You're not in Combat Systems, you don't count!" That evening we had peanut butter sandwiches for dinner. That was it! The next morning for breakfast we had leftover peanut butter sandwiches. Some time during breakfast apologies were made and things went back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
