I think...

jenkins2921 2007-08-27 03:54:35 ET The more Quinten and I think about SWCC, the more excited we get. It would really be something for him to be proud of. I am already proud of him but he needs that feeling that hey I actually did something worth while and meaningful in my life. Right now he doesn't feel that way. He sends me all this info on it and things that wives and sailors have posted about having a family and being in SWCC. I know it will be difficult but after dealing with his ship I am sure I will be able to handle it. :)

epsilon 2007-08-27 05:08:58 ET well, deployments still suck

jenkins2921 2007-08-27 05:38:53 ET yeah I know...nothing about the military will ever be easy, but I think I will be able to handle it...its hard now b/c I know he is miserable and hates what he is doing...if he makes it at least he will be semi-enjoying what he is doing, he will feel like he is worth something. I don't know if that really makes sense but I tried. lol

epsilon 2007-08-27 05:56:09 ET what does he do? is he in deck?

jenkins2921 2007-08-27 07:39:31 ET No he's a GM but they have him as DCPO...so he isn't even really with his division. Plush he is VLS and he really wanted to do 5 inch I think. Its not exactly what he thought his job would be like.

epsilon 2007-08-27 10:13:59 ET DC blows. its just maintenance. tagging things out, scrubing them, oiling them, inspecting them, then tagging the in

jenkins2921 2007-08-27 11:25:07 ET Yeah thats why he hates his job so much.
