Transcript

What's up guys? It's your favorite sailor at sea, the salty shipmate. And here is my morning routine on a Navy ship. So I'm gonna wake up in the morning and I'm gonna get dressed. Get dressed for what? For the gym. And I can't forget my towel for the gym because that's required. So I'm gonna go for a freshen up a little bit. Here is the walk to the head or the bathroom on Navy ships. I'm gonna floss, brush my teeth, and of course, with that brown Listerine, I'm gonna brush my teeth. And then I'm gonna head to the gym, start off with my warm-ups. And then we're not gonna get in depth with the exercise, but it was leg day today. And of course, during this workout, G-Q was called. So I'm gonna have to wrap things up and get out of here. But that's all right, because you know, we got to head start on the day. So now I'm gonna go ahead and get ready for the day, have my protein shake, get myself cleaned up, dressed up for work. And then I'm gonna make sure, you know, get my boots from way up top. I'm ready to go. Looking good. Let's get out of here. Now, I'm gonna sit down, have some breakfast. Today I had chicken and fried chicken, watermelon, corn, peas, carrots, and a cookie. And then I'm gonna shine my boots, get ready for the work day. Get dressed, get my float coat on, my cranial, and head out to the flight deck. I'm a troubleshooter, so pretty much I'll be troubleshooting and shooting jets off the cat for the rest of the day.
