Jay,

In two and a half hours, I'm going to be at a funeral for the people I trained with for years. They were killed in some kind of accident during an exercise in the Arctic. All of their current and former surviving teammates have come from across Canada to honour their service for the last time.

That's what being part of a team is about. It is about trust, and commitment, and dedication. That's what the stupid codenames and uniforms and symbols are for; to show you that even at earliest stages, the first day you make the commitment, that's the first day you become one of the team. You have something that makes you part of 'us' instead of 'them', and you have something to earn in the process.

Take the fucking codename, apologize to your new teammates for being an ass, and shove your damn pride into the corner until you've got something to be proud about. Otherwise, get the fuck out and stop wasting your time and ours.
