Stolen from r/arma by u/franbiren Damn civilians in ARMA 3... target practice for Taco

Many of you don't know me, so I am going to take the time to tell you a bit about the day in a life of kiwisniper. What you are about to read is the truth about me none of which is made up... My days start 1-2 hours after I wake up ( BTW the sleep that leads to me being awake is 2 hours max ) Because that's how long it can take to get my body to finally move, some morning/afternoons depending on when I wake up I may have to use a machine to sstimulate the nerves in my back so that I may be able to move at which point I would come to the office and start checking my emails ( at which I have 5 accounts for diffrent uses ie, gaming, personal, hobby, studio, work, and so forth) and reply to those that need it. I am not working anymore because the condition I am in does not allow me to work, and I am unable to receive welfare as I am a kiwi so I do what odd jobs I can to get money ( mostly IT/PC and Jingle writing and some electronic repairs ). oh did I mention the pain from the moment I awake to the point where I can finally get sleep and that's if I cat get to sleep at all? See I this condition called Fibromyalgia as you may have read in the previous link this is not a nice thing to have there are no drugs that even come close to putting a damper on the pain and there is no way describe the pain either, but I will try, lets start with the fact that when the wind from outside or a fan blows on my legs its like have boiling hot oil poured over my legs while there are a thousand needles pricking me. I am also on a drug the could potentially kill me if the doctor gets the dose wrong and I have a weekly blood test for that. Oh did I mention that I am 38 years old and have to use a wheelie walker to get around, ya not cool for a young guy like me but oh well. I must say I have a really good understanding and loving lady in my life without her I would have been dead the day I finally found out what was wrong with me see to be formally diagnosed with my condition I had to have 8 months of tests and believe me some of the tests I never want to have again. about a year before I found out that I had fibromyalgia I was put into hospital with blood clots in my lungs so that in itself was a shock to the system and then the fibromyalgia. So to recap, I can barely walk unaided, I live with shit loads of pain all day long and live on maybe 7-10hours sleep a week.... so where does that lead to the SG Community? so when I got Arma and had played on the single player missions to the point where I was ready to uninstall it I decide to have a look to see if I can find a decent multiplayer server to play on, the first server I join is StrayaGaming and straight from the get-go I meet Mitch and yes there may be a few of you that don't like him and to be honest at times I felt like jumping in a hunter and running his ass over but I didn't and now im getting side tracked. I use Arma as a way to escape my pain and I have meet a lot of people on the server and a lot I consider to be very close with like brothers. like I said a lot of you don't know me and have probably never seen me in the game at all, you may have seen me at the help desk dealing with your issues, you may have seen me on the police force and if your really good you also may have seen me in with the medics under a different name. I guess what I am saying is SG is like a home away from home, I struggle every day with depression because of the pain I live with and if it weren't for a few member of this community I call home there would have been one less member. ( They know who they are ) If anyone needs someone to talk to about anything at all please make an effort to contact me I would be happy to talk with you and if I can help in any way I will. SG Intro

not where im from

That thumbnail really looks like some good rp

Dad @LuckyB33f aunty @Wex and i are famous!!!!!!

I had more to say but i completely forgot it.

ON HOLD Come to academy office and see myself for a maturity test

We frequently found old munitions that had been turned into IEDs. The scary part was their RE Factor and yield. We're talking old 155mm rounds. Even some APFSDS tank rounds buried and pointing up to destroy protected vehicles. *Edit to add a bit: In most cases air transport was the best method and would be the chosen on legit about 99% of the time. Normally only vehicles would go out in large convoys and only when there NEEDED to be either gear that could only be taken by vehicle, or the vehicles themselves needed to be moved.

Update So I have just got home from a 1hr doctors appointment and what I would like to think is good news is that my doctor is pushing for me to have surgery on my leg its a step in the right direction and if all goes well will be one less thing to worry about, just to fill you in on my leg because of the condition I have I have a wound a little bit bigger then a 50 cent piece on my shine and it has never healed . Hopefully, this surgery will fix this once and for all, I don't know when it's going to happen I just know he is ringing the hospital now to put the hard word on them. Thank you to all for your kind words and yes we are all family, you are all like brothers to me.
