Thought of something. If an officer is informed he has a phone call from his wife, then takes the phone and the first word out of his mouth is "Engineer," he should probably be fired.
Also, since when was divisional/department training conducted by IC circuit? I think the compulsion of some people to always adhere to the Sub IC manual is ridiculous, formal communications are not needed all the time (I know the argument about habits, but that's a load of crap). For example, one quarters on the pier the CO was sighting a death toll, said it halfway, then stopped to correct himself from saying something like forty-two to four two. I almost gagged, but decided to deface my pocket sub IC manual instead.
And there's another thing that should probably go away. Pocket versions of instructions like the watchstander's guide and Sub IC manual. I believe they are a waste of money, good only as something to graffiti. Talk about drops in standards, someone is pretty worried when they start saying all watchstanders should keep those on them at all times, and pretty detached from reality as well. I wonder if someone will ever add up all the twos that keep separately traveling up the CoC and get an even number. I've got a raging clue that points to no.
