Bro got to tell his boss to shut the fuck up. I’m honestly jealous.
His boss’s boss’s boss’s boss’s boss’s boss’s boss’s boss.
Imagine if you, as a retail employee, got to yell at the COO of the company to shut the fuck up and stop being a disrespectful shit during a meeting.
Oh god the feeling of adrenaline plus euphoria would be enough to knock me out…
I can do that.
Only once, mind.
My CEO is well known for hating people sitting down in the office, even though sometimes it’s needed. I went into the office to retrieve something and he tried to catch me sitting, I guess. Accidentally hit him with the door leaving.
“accidentally”
Hope he somehow developed gray matter disease from that.
And then he pins a medal on you and pretends like he’s not mad at.
And his boss had to give him a medal for it
Imagine having the time/place/authority align to yell at the SecDef without consequence… Or with, I guess we’ll see, but I love it regardless.
Edit: HEGSETH AWARDED HIM A MEDAL
Guarantee his promotions and such will be “mysteriously” denied, and any subjective performance reviews will similarly “mysteriously” state he’s just not quite meeting expectations any more.
Source: My own career was stymied and then extinguished for reasons “unrelated” to my refusals to follow illegal orders as a cop.
Hmm, never seen a Swan wear blue.
No idea what that means.
Because cops are usually pigs.
Not much Hegseth can do to him in his time remaining.
🤞
To be honest, I’ve learned better of hoping for things to go the predictable, sane way in this administration.
The minute we’re sure the bad thing won’t happen, something worse will.
The sheer hatred pouring out of this man’s eyes at hegseth as he’s being given the medal is invigorating.
He knows what’s coming and did it anyway. If the next president is a sane one, they’d better give this motherfucker a medal.
“Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth awarded the Joint Service Commendation Medal to Army Specialist Thomas Iglesias, the sentinel who loudly reprimanded Hegseth and his entourage for laughing and talking at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier during Veterans Day events.”
Phew. I guess ol’ Pete came to his senses after he slept it off, eh?
That is bloody nuts. They are good at PR, but as soon as the cameras are off…he is going to be suddenly very busy for very little gain.
His leadership could give him a medal now. As long as they keep it on the low end, which is all this deserves anyways.
Hegseth gave Army Specialist Thomas Iglesias the Joint Service Commendation Medal today.
He will be punished, likely solitary confinement for a year or two
Hegseth just gave him a medal 🤣
Without confirming it myself, that immediately signals to me that they’re gonna start doing outrage moments and then flipping the outrage into micro wins.
Edit: 1000x more than they already fucking do. I hope all these bastards taste nothing but napalm when they rot in hell, truthfully.
The tomb has been guarded continuously since 1948, even during rain and snow. I know it’s an honor to guard it, but to me that seems like punishment.
It’s more than a mere honor. Look up some videos about how those guards live and train. It’s a big deal to be chosen for that role.
The entire way we treat our armed servicemen is quite literally all a way to subjugate them into being docile little bitches for their managers, which is why we were easily couped by the most idiotic Russian leader of all time
Not this guy though…
No good deed unpunished
Soon enough NO deed will go unpubished, yayyyy orwellian society. That will prove the libs wrong if everyone’s dead or in jail!!!
@zoloftt@lemmy.world @Hatchepsut@piefed.social
While Hegseth seems a piece of trash human in general, that’s at least genuinely a good move.
genuinely good
There’s nothing genuine about it, it’s purely saving face and trying to avoid doing the only thing he understands, escalation.
Has nothing to do with being targeted for impeachment or anything, just Hegseth doing a genuinely good thing.
Give me a fucking break.
The sad thing is, the medal could either be cover for mysteriously denying the soldier promotions, could be given out of genuine respect for the soldier showing Kegsbreath that his idea of “manly men” still exists in this world, or a sign of defeat from Kegsbreath.
Hahahahah, you don’t need to “@” people you’ve replied directly to.
He’s genuinely a piece of shit. This was a nice surprise though
Welcome to the fediverse, that’s a mbin user. It’s just the default behaviour of their client.
@Hatchepsut@piefed.social @zoloftt@lemmy.world Yup, that’s what’s happening here!
I like Mbin, though I’m still figuring out parts of it. It’s a sort weird hybrid of Mastodon and Lemmy and I’m not quite sure how the boosting and mentioning stuff works—that is, how they function. Do people need to follow me to see my boosts? Why does it @ people when I reply to them? Do I need to keep those for the OC to see my reply? But 🤷
Afaik boosts either count as an upvote or are ignored, and you can remove the @ and it should still display correctly in Lemmy, although I’m not sure if that would influence how other mbin users see it
I’ve heard of it and never looked into it. Might have to give it a try!
Ah, I’ve been a Lemmy user for a bit now and haven’t seen that.
He got a medal
@Hatchepsut@piefed.social I feel out of the loop. What is this referring to?
Pete Kegsbreath and his staff were being disrespectful at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and got barked at by a sentinel.
I would say ”disrespectful” is a polite way to put their behavior.
Disrespectful is breaking silence for anything short of a medical emergency.
No video of the interaction :(
It’s the guy who told Hegseth et al to shut the fuck up when they were talking at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
The shrill laughing in front of the tomb seemed to be the final straw for the guard, and that was after posing for photos and talking.
Posing a photo taking are allowed if you are being respectful…
These chucklefucks don’t know how to do that.
This is so low effort
This comment is so low effort.
It’s not AI, so it’s got that going for it.
