Fortunately it was not directed at me or the copier I was servicing. The only comment made about me was "Wow, the copy guy's here already?"
I was in one of the school buildings, I think the class is for electronic communications. The Biz\
hub 250 was throwing a drum code prematurely. I was quietly trying to get it to reset and students were on the computers and all was normal and quiet. I was getting ready to walk out to the truck to get another drum and overheard the Master Sergeant talking to another instructor about none of the students passing their PT test {physical training}, and he said something to the students about a counseling statement, or write up.
When I came back a few minutes later, all of the students were in the back in front of the Sergeant's desk, and around the copier I was working on. The Sergeant was chewing their ass. Not like you would expect or see in the movies. He was not raising his voice at all. This was not like "Full Metal Jacket". He was speaking in a very normal if not even low and mellow tone.
I went on changing the drum and developer and normally would not have paid attention to what was being said, but a certain word kept popping up. FUCK and variations of it. I would not have even paid attention to it even then except that I was hearing it in a very regular pattern, about every 5th or 6th word.
The students were being reamed for not doing enough sit ups and push ups and other things and the 51 year old Sergeant was pointing out how old and broken he was and how he could still pass a PT test, basically calling them a bunch of pussies. Kind of like ... I can't fucking believe you mutherfuckers can't pass a goddamn mutherfucking PTtest What the fuck is wrong with you bunch of fucking pansies. I am 51 fucking years old and my fucking ass can run a five fucking mile run with a fucking 80 pound pack on my goddamn back and you half ass fuckers can't even do 30 fucking sit ups. The fucking US Army has invested a lot of fucking money in your goddamn asses and you sorry fuckers are going to get your fucking shit together... and, well you get the picture. After it had been going on a while, I started counting the fucks , and with what was left of the ass chewing, I still got 53 before it ended.
And it was all said with the calmness of some one who was maybe reading a boring contract to you. And it was the most profanity I ever heard on a service call!
