Did you join the Airborne to learn to fly?
At least the floor's NOT covered in linoleum, which, after the mop, also requires a coat of wax and that "infernal machine" to polish it, weekly.
If it was easy, anybody could do it.
That could come in handy if you ever move north - Ice skating in the driveway is quite popular up here.

Looking fine. Let’s do it again!

Crossed buffers NOT crossed rifles! That what I felt at times.
Yessir, and I have never had occasion to use one since I was discharged in 1983.Originally Posted by 45workhorse
Lies come in two forms, commission and omission. The recruiter might not lie to you directly, but they might leave out a significant bit of info.

There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.

Yea, like this unit doesn't go to Vietnam. They changed the name in country
In 1972 when I joined the army, the recruiter signed me up for medic school 91A MOS rather than the 91C MOS which I was qualified for (and didn't know about). The 91C Clinical Specialist would have qualified me to be a Licensed Practical Nurse when I got out. As it was, I ended up pushing bedpans (literally) for my first job out of the army.

Oh,, does that bring back memories.
I always have said; "Anybody who served in the military can be a janitor. Because we all had to clean everything in sight!"
That is funny.....I am a lot older than you and I have never unlearned how to mop....you kid!
When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!

Are you checked for streaks when dry and black heel marks?
Yes, waxing new no-wax floors was a high point of my life also..............
Some neutral Kiwi will eliminate the marks that are still there. No? Put a little more elbow grease into it.
I retired from active duty in 2005. I've been living the good life up until about 2 years ago. Now I find myself employed once again. I'm now a security guard at a recycle company. Really nice job but just as dirty and nasty as can be. I am the only one that ever shows up with shined boots. I have been asked why shine them? They are going to get messed up in less than 5 minutes. I simply answer I can't help it. Shined boots on the job is ingrained in me.
Guess I really am a "Lifer" and looks like you have a little "lifer" left in you too.

Buffer races, anyone?

I think that is where "hold my beer comes" comes from!!!!
Not races, but we used to hold buffer rodeo's. My first one was in high school, several in the Navy.
I'll never forget waxing bare concrete in the greenhouse (Gun School) at Great Lakes.

Ahh, the memories, buffers, Johnson paste wax, and of course the time the burning wax poured on the floor and set the floor tiles on fire -- or at least the top layers of wax on the floor. -- Boy -- that was so much fun!
Luckily we put it out real quick, but had to strip and rewax the floor again!
And we passed the barracks inspection the next day.

Used the "Bug Juice" which was concentrated enough to make about 10 gallons of kool aide, or grape drink on the deck plates in the engine room. Stuff would eat the grease on the deck plates aided by the use of a wire brush. One genius drank some from the quart bottle it came in, then had to get his stomach pumped out. Frank
