It was the first alert in basic training in the middle of the night. All but one guy were on their feet and grabbing their equipment. He was still sleeping peacefully, so our Sarge just emptied his magazine right next to his bed and let the hot cartridge cases fly into his bed. He woke up all right, but he was not singing.

A good thing the local military didn't want my services; doesn't sound like a very safe place.

Safety? That's relative. Did they ever tell you what they will train you for?

The real problem is that the bad guys, when they come, will not go home because you hid away all tulips, fries and wooden shoes from them. They always find some more reasons to stay.

I've been told they are here to protect us from the Russians.

I'm shocked that your Sergeant actually wasted an entire magazine of blanks to get someone out of bed. A single blank round, fired close to his ear, would have been more than sufficient.

If that had been all. At the end there was a public ceremony where we were supposed to swear our oath. My father came in full dress uniform and every decoration and had a nice chat with that sarge about hopefully not having been too easy on us.

Hey, for the 2 documents I write in a year at home, Libre Office works just fine!
At work we use to be Office based but we got bought and now we're using the Google suite.

LibreOffice - I hate Word, and am not a fan of the subscription model either. If write a document, I want to be able to read in in five years time ... without buying the software again.

What can I say? It's not the best looking, it's not the smoothest - but it works.
The best WP was AmiPro / Lotus WordPro, but that died when the MS marketing machine rolled over the top of it and Word became the standard. Well, "this weeks standard" anyway - they changed file format so often that you had to upgrade to share documents with customers.
Word is a pretty bad WP - clumsy, bloated, and awkward - and I hate using it. LibreOffice Word may not be as polished, but it's easier to use for the most part.
Excel however ... the world's greatest spreadsheet. Calc works, but it's nowhere near The Master!

Agree re Word - it is almost nothing like a word-processor, and after all these years and revisions can still get into such a knot with complex formats that your document becomes unmanageable.
I still buy and use Wordperfect - been my favourite since the days of DOS version 4.2. They still struggle to achieve compatability with Word documents though, because of MS secret sauce that sometimes even the Word devs don't seem to know about! (I've got a doc prepared with an older version of Word here that the latest version cannot open because it uses some feature that Word doesn't support any more - WP opens it though!)
I note Corel trying to move to a subscription model too now, be a great shame if that happens...

If you master styles with Word, and you master the god-awful refloating of images to terrible locations on the page when things change, you can put together a 300 page B&W book with appendices and a multi-level index that looks as good as anything on the shelves.
The index creation was much easier, and flexible than what was available in Serif Pageplus, which was supposed to be a step up, but was far from being so. If you take it a step further, you can create some VBA that will strip the document and output it in plain HTML that is actually clean HTML. In other words, once mastered, it is a monster of a program. (But those floating images were a mess to deal with.)
