I'm going to try to keep this short as possible and probably not keep it on here as long because I am concerned he might lurk on here.

But basically I have this guy I've been working with for over almost a year, when we first started working together he told me he's enlisted in the Marines and that he would eventually be sent to boot camp or something in November.

So at first hearing this I was surprised because he physically looked way too old to me to be enlisted in the Marines, so I asked his age and he told me was 26.

Again, this was unexpected because he literally did not look like he was in his 20s at all..

Anyway, time passes and November comes but he is still here. So I asked him again, what happened and then he told me they changed the date and said possibly somewhere in January/February is when he's finally getting sent to boot camp and I just told him how it sucks he has to wait some more.

And again like before time passes and then tells me it is March then it passes again and now he tells me October.

The guy tells me details about how he has to has to do these "pullies" or something every Monday morning just to stay in the Marines. He recently told me he had an appointment to make a will for himself and how he had to open a checking account for where all his boot camp money or money he's going to make working as a marine. He's been telling almost everyone there that he's going into the Marines and he's been trying to encourage others to go in too, which I don't find it to be wrong to encourage others. But lately, I found out the dude has been lying about his age, that he is actually in his 30s and he lies about his parents age too and he lied about having an older brother as well.

He has sent me photos of his enlistment as proof but they're kinda vague too, like none of it shows if he is really in the Marines.

Exhausted after rituals.

Coworker possibly lying about potential enlistment in the Marines.
