Re: Vision Test
Cooking? We don't need no stinking cooks!
Just eat it raw!
Mix a little Shoyu (Soy Sauce for you Americans) and some WWWWAASSSABBBIIIIII and gimme a cold beer and I am ready for the Super Bowl!!!
Ahi, shrimp, crab, poki, tako, etc, etc. YUM!!!
(if you don't recognize it, don't ask...)
Maybe a raw tourist or two!  j/k
You should have seen the bunch of us a couple of years ago on a trip (business) to Portsmouth, Maine during lobster season. We showed them how to eat seafood. I will never forget the looks on their faces. When they lost their appetites, we ate their dinners too!!!

Re: Vision Test
Yeah, sushi and sashimi are really good! But the seafood has to be very fresh, or it's not going to be very good.
I don't know about the raw beef and other raw meats, though. I'm scared that if you eat those, you might get parasites.

Re: Vision Test
Eating raw beef, pork, poultry, and other non-seafood meats (well... not too sure about insects and the like  ) is a really bad idea.

Re: Vision Test
The equivalent of sushi for beef is called "steak tartar". (Sometimes spelled "tartare".)

Re: Vision Test
Nothing wrong with raw beef, but there is a definate quality issue that goes with that. You just don't take a blob of Kroger hamburger and eat it. "tartare" takes a lot of preperation.
Raw or undercooked pork or chicken is very bad.

Never said it wouldn't limit career choices. However, it wouldn't limit it to just TWO choices. I'm blind as a bat and color blind and I had around 60 available jobs to choose from. What would limit job choices would be scoring low on your ASVAB.

Re: Vision Test
not sure what the hell your talking about with that. I was 17.5, and entering with a GED. I do not remember taking a second test for aptitude but do remember them entering the GED scores. My GED scores were that of an "average graduating senior". I didn't not even have a valid driver's license at the time, nor had I ever had one. This was also in 1980, and things may have been changed since then and the time you were in. When I joined, childhood asthma was a disqualification and the reason for my early discharge. that has also changed. now it's not. But you don't know what my scores were, nor are you considering there could be many factors involved in job choices, including the fact we were facing war with Iran. So to imply my choices were limited solely because of test scores, and implying in someway I am stupid is offensive. If only test scores were a factor and I was that dumb, I would not have been accepted by the AF in the first place. If you actually have been in the AF you would know that. Another limiting factor is jobs already filled. They don't train 50 people for one job that is filled, when they have openings in other areas.
I am done with this conversation. And you and your implications and conclusions.
