Probably the biggest waste of 8 hours I've ever seen. And what's with all the stupid acronyms????
Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could put a round through a fleas *** at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in.

What's worse is being part of the group that is being held responsible for ensuring that all 430+ sworn personnel at my unit of assignment have taken and passed all the required NIMS online tests... :rolleyes:

I've only taken part of it. Computers crashed and we were unable to complete it. I have no idea when we'll be able to finish it. All I know is it was boring as hell.

we have "cims", same thing, but city instead of national.
most of the time central elaborates on the codes anyway.DONLON
I mean, we're getting killed for these people and they don't even appreciate it. They think it's a big joke.
