Most, regardless of rate, make it to E-4 by 2 years; E-5 by 3 or 4. Most who go in as SK or BM do so because they don't qualify for better rates after the ASVAB. Anyone with a fully-functioning brain could get to E-6 as an SK in no more than six years. As a newbie on my ship, I was lucky enough to get the Chiefs' Mess for mess duty. The biggest idiot in there was a SKC and he made it to E-7 in eight years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to go in their all the time to piss off chiefs all the time The chiefs mess is everything thts wrong with the military genius I got a 90 on the asvab( drunk still btw) I also qualified for ast school and hurt my shoulder I qualified for all rates... Went sk because my friend i knew was one.... I also didn't want chief. Never studied for the service wide because i didnt care Stop assuming things u dont know...lol Edited December 24, 2017 by westerndecline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westerndecline Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 I was also on medical hold/non rate for almost three yrs because i hurt my shoulder in the ast program Once they told me i couldn't be an ast i almost quit honestly. Thts all i wanted to do... My friend Nick pretty much saved my career and talked me into going sk out in California. But i honestly floated through the guard. So tht part u r correct I guarantee my record is better than yours though. Also everyone understand this asshat is jealous of the sk rate because we have pretty much the smoothest job in the cg. ( which is why i picked it) we dont do much sea duty and we hardly ever stand watch. We are mostly trop hours give or take and everyone has to suck our dick like this !@#$ or else he doesnt get ****... We can make his life hell. The only cool rates are sk anything aviation. Dcs and thrs about it. Im giessing this douche was a bm or mk. The two most miserable rates in the cg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
