Call it what it is!
I dont take offense to the word newbe or beginer, we all were at one time.
I like to use the words “new player”, and we always team them up with the best players at our board, we show them as much as we can and explain why we do certain things and the game isnt the end of the world if you crap out on rolls or make a bad move.
We also tell them why we attack where we do and each player has a different plan of attack,and let them choose what they want to do. Some times we reset pretty early too
Its good when a newly started player gets good dice and they can hammer an old pro
Are civilians "insane" to military men and women?

Yea, but Jermo, most people consider a full time job as “40 hours.” I always included the time travelling too and from the clients/office as well. So I actually worked closer to 14.5 hours a day, 6 days a week and was on call on Sunday.
Thus, upgrading to 19.5 hours a day, 7 days a week is nothing. wink

This is a little crazy.
I have the odd “20-hour day” - fortunately my week is rounded out with a the odd 14 and 16 hour days, with two 8-hour days thrown in. The odd weekend i’ll do a couple of 12-hour shifts.
SOOOO much better than residency - 1/4 days i’d do 30-hours straight with 12 hours working the other two. Mind you - i got 2 weekends off over a 2 month period . . . . -
I have life SO easy!
M-F, average 11 hours a day.
About 1 Saturday a month I have to work
About 2 holidays a year (of 10) I have to work.
About a dozen overnight trips a year.Time and a half OT. 3 weeks of vacation, a week sick (and of course 2 weeks worth of holidays).
Paid for drive time… and I average about 250-300 miles a day :-)
Am I lucky or what??? :-D

Yea, well, now you see why I re-enlisted, CC. Easier working days, less responsibility, much better benefits, a lot less stress, longer life expectancy….
Ah well…I hear teaching’s a breeze compared to being a senior project manager…
