There was a military recruiter at a college campus. A very nerdy - looking student came up and asked if he could bring his collection of comic books. The recruiter said no. Then the student asked if he could at least name the military bases after superheroes. The recruiter couldn't help but laugh and told him that wasn't how it worked. It was quite a comical encounter.
I heard of a recruiter who was recruiting in a small town. He met an old farmer who was interested in the military for his grandson. The recruiter started listing all the high - tech equipment they use. The farmer just shook his head and said, 'Back in my day, all we had was a rifle and a good pair of boots, and we did just fine.' The recruiter was a bit embarrassed but also found it really funny how the old - fashioned view contrasted with the modern military pitch.
In a military air show, a pilot was supposed to do a simple loop - the - loop maneuver. But he got his signals mixed up and ended up doing a series of wobbly twists and turns that looked more like a drunk dance in the air. The crowd was both shocked and amused.
A recruiter once interviewed a candidate who brought their pet parrot. The parrot kept interrupting the interview by repeating some of the recruiter's words in a funny voice. It was hard for the recruiter to keep a straight face.
There was this military recruiter at a high school fair. He had all these cool displays and brochures. A student came up and asked if he could bring his pet snake with him if he joined. The recruiter was a bit taken aback but quickly said, 'Well, we don't have a snake - friendly barracks.' The student then started arguing that his snake was very well - behaved. It made for quite an amusing exchange.
One time in the military, a new recruit was so nervous during a drill that he put his helmet on backwards. When the sergeant pointed it out, he tried to turn it around while still wearing it and ended up getting it stuck halfway. Everyone burst out laughing.
One horror story is about a recruiter who promised a young man a specific job in the military. But once he signed up and went through basic training, he found out that the job he was promised didn't exist in the unit he was assigned to. He ended up doing a completely different and much more dangerous job.
False promises are common. Recruiters might promise a certain lifestyle, job, or benefits that don't actually materialize. For example, promising a cushy office job but delivering a combat - related position.
A methhead tried to wash his clothes in the dishwasher. He thought it was a great idea since it used water and soap. But all he got was a ruined dishwasher and clothes full of soap suds. He couldn't understand why it didn't work.
There was this one time when a young man got on the megabus with a huge backpack that was almost as big as him. He struggled to find a place to put it and ended up with it on his lap for half of the journey. Every time the bus jolted, he would be pushed forward by the backpack, which looked really comical.
Well, there was this one time when an inmate accidentally dyed his hair bright pink while trying to make some homemade ink. He thought he could write secret messages with the stuff he made, but instead, he ended up looking like a flamingo. It was really funny, and all the other inmates couldn't stop teasing him about it.
A really funny 911 call story is about a guy who called because he thought his microwave was trying to communicate with him. It made some beeping sounds that he misinterpreted. Also, there was a person who called 911 because they saw a 'ghost' in their attic. It was just an old sheet that had blown up there. It was quite comical when the operator had to explain that to them.
