I liked it when ,as a new guy, I would be sent in search for some non-existent item, especially while in the military (Marines). I would just go and goof off. I would go to the PX and read magazines and look around or go to the base library or something.
I was in the USMC and did the same thing. I was sent to get 100 yards of flight line. After two days, they told me to quit looking. I just went and goofed off for two days.
Yeah, I was prepared if someone jumped my shit for being in the PX or library in the middle of the day, to tell them exactly what I was looking for in those books and magazines.
🤣 crap! Our trick didn't work where has he been!!
Yeah, it was a little harder when we were in the field. I learned to keep a book handy. I would just go out in the woods and read or take a nap.
I like the way you think.
Did the same with other dudes voluntold to do something.
