    There's this annoying kid (ee wasn't born when I joined the army) in my unit, keeps butting in with unsolicited lame advice.:mad: I keep biting my tongue. Several other people find him annoying too.

        The phrase "friendly fire" springs to mind.

            You don't have to shoot him. Just tap him in the head with the other end of it. :)

                A little of both. I figured there must be people on here with similar situations in the office. ie Employees with umbilical cords still attached butting in on veterans.;P

                  The typical way of dealing with Jonnie Nostars is the well timed use of the practical joke. You could always send him to the stores for a long stand, or to get khaki paint. There are many examples of this which you can mine to show him that he is a callow youth.

                  Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

                    Just be careful about exactly what you ask for. A few years ago I heard a story about someone sending the new guy at an airforce base out for '100 yards of flight line'. the new guy went back and forth a few times to make sure he understood correctly and then started up a backhoe and started digging. :doh:

                    -- If you view money as inherently evil, I view it as my duty to assist in making you more virtuous.

                      Not if you hit him hard enough to kill him - accidentally of course - call it a training accident.
