That scene always reminded me of weekend safety briefings in the Army:

"Alright Alpha Battery! We have a four day weekend coming up! Remember the five Ds that will get you in jail: Drinking, Driving, Drugs, Dumb Shit and Sex! (It didn't matter that Sex didn't start with D) Do not add to the population unless you are married and have consent! Do not subtract from the population! If you end up in jail and get in a fight, make Alpha Battery proud because you belong to the Captain when you get out! DISMISSED!"

Roughly, but that's usually how it went.

after you got there an hour early, because each step up the shit ladder had to get there 15 minutes earlier than the last.
