My .02 worth.

rmacqueen said:I had a new private who would come in to work at 8 in a track suit and then change into uniform making her at least 15 mins late starting work every day. One day I said something to her about it (I was a Cpl at the time) and she looked at me and said "what is it to you?" The worst part was the Sgt(Air Force) who was our supervisor thought it was funny.

Nope, that was just what she wore to work everydayArmyVern said:Well, perhaps she had permission from that Sgt to do PT in the mornings prior to reporting for duty? This is not uncommon, especially in Units where 'regualarily scheduled PT' is a problem due to the provision of support. I've been there as the supervisor, new Cpl to the section querying/bitching as to "the girls" taking off early for lunch every day at 1145 and me not doing anything about it. I told him that A) they didn't need his permission; B) Regulations allowed me, the supervisor, to allow them time off/early departures under certain circumstances and that I did not have to seek his approval prior to doing so; and that C) He was quite welcome to join them at the gym each lunch hour for tai-bo and aerobics.
He declined the invitation.

It was the first time I'd actually heard of a blanket party, and I must say, society in the civilian world should take that on. Imagine seeing a bunch of guys out on sidewalks with blankets over them, and guys beating them up... I guess it would get pretty chaotic, though.
