Quoted:
Dear Arfcom, I never thought it would happen to me. In Honolulu for work and met my first SEAL. At a crappy bar in Waikiki with coworkers wanting to celebrate the Seahawks win (we're all from WA). Random guy starts talking shit about my coworkers Seahawks jerseys. He's a NE Patriots fan who keep repeating he's from Boston / went to Boston University , but lives here now. Offers to buy us all a drink. At some point my boss asks him what he does for work and the guy says you wouldnt believe me. I made a joke about drug kingpin and he starts laughing real loud. I asked what he really did and says he used to be a Navy SEAL and works as a defense contractor now. Someone else seemed skeptical and he pulls out his wallet and showed some kind of ID card. I havent seen a .mil ID in quite a while, his card was vertically oriented but I wasnt able to get a better look to see what it was. Guy then says he made $200k last year so I asked what company he worked for the last time he was deployed, he replies he returned from his last Navy deployment 6 months ago and started contracting. No security firm given. I ignored him after that and he drifted away from our table after some more bullshit about money. CSB Im sure but I thought Id share. Giovanni's? |

If I was a retired SEAL doing contract work I would probably live in Hawaii. Maybe try and get in the PI game

How come no one was ever a cook in the military? My uncle was a cook in the Coast Guard. He made the full career out of it, did 25 years and retired. He did something else his first couple of years in, but that's what he was proud to tell people that he did. He's pretty good at it too. He now works part time as a park ranger. He seems to be pretty happy with how life is going for him. |

Quoted: Offers to buy us all a drink. Did he pay in oily blood stained 100s? Thats how you can tell if someone is really a contractor. If it also had hair gel leavings on it, that proves he is a SEAL. |

How can you tell who the former SEAL on your team (or bar or office or...) is? He tells you.

I left and went back to the hotel, my coworkers stayed. I was told this morning that Mr. "Im more operational than you" ( actual quote, reminded me of the DEA agent who shot himself) continued talking shit to other patrons and eventually some guy gave him a shove and offered to take it to the parking lot to finish the conversation . The "SEAL" attempted deesecalation by saying it was all good/just kidding player etc. but security threw them both out. My coworkers didn't go out to see how fast he ran the quarter mile.
It wasnt Giovannis, couldnt recall the name but that wasnt it. |
