    We had a newcomer Russell Shelton and his wife Judy from I think Kentucky. They were one of the best dressed in the circuit. Russ was "talked" to by some elders because the amount he requested for reimbursement during his week stay at a local KH was more than double than most COs in the past. It was revealed that he was getting reimbursed for expensive dinners with his wife. He felt entitled and was pissed when asked to account for every purchase.

    They were reassigned after their 3 year tour and sent to Caribou, Maine area up near the Canadian border. When they announced that at the CA everyone chuckled knowing Russ and Judy were HIGH maintenance. Good riddance, I heard they are now divorced.

    There are so many who have NO idea what it is like to live in the real world. They try and guilt people to pioneer or have the "pioneer spirit". I laugh inside thinking you get enough from me, I have things to do at home and have a real job.

    Anyone from downunder will remember a co/do Han's Hubler.

    Now this guy made an impression on anybody that had a crying baby in a assembly!!!!!!!!

    He would stop and ask the attendants to remove them.

    Nardolillo was a tool and was from RI (family here) and served in the area. I have no idea where he is now. One talk he gave trying to drum up enthusiasm to regular pioneer.....

    He thought he could give ideas for part time work to supposrt pioneerig. One "job" he kept promoting was being a "flagger" for $40/hour. Some of us were chuckling and most made comments after "that he needs to live in the real world." First of all in Massachusetts civilians cannot be flaggers only policemen and second where is he getting information on the pay scale? What got me miffed was he was trying to guilt us into pioneering. I have been there and done that and NO way in h*ll will I pioneer again. I do not have to work but I like it (well sometimes) lol. He would make comments why was I not piioneering when he "thought" I did not need to work. Hmmmm wonder what crystal ball he was looking into when he reviewed my finances?
