sky_king Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 It's been a month, and we're still waiting on approval to wear a t-shirt with...OMG...color on it. How is it seriously this big of deal that the CSAF says, "go for it" and the Wg/King still won't let the squadrons do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it seriously this big of deal that the CSAF says, "go for it" and the Wg/King still won't let the squadrons do it. Probably weighing how this could negatively impact ladder climbing ability. Same type of person that sees "Go for it" = "Here's some rope. Go hang yourself." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slander Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 We are wearing plain black shirts until the punks get us a proper red shirts without the silhouette on the chest. It's a nice throwback. Too bad Friday boots aren't included in the new rules... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnkr Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Wore my Friday shirt and patches yesterday for the first time. What a breath of fresh air! Our squadron chose black shirts to make our scarves really pop. The boss held an open ranks inspection to ensure everyone's morale-building flare was fully standardized. I've never stood taller. Probably because my belleville's have a two inch heel. //sarcasm off In all seriousness, it was pretty fun to wear the black shirt again, and watching the girl in the MPS look at my name tag three times before realizing that it was a c/s, not my real first name.

Tnkr Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I know, crazy talk! Mine was earned. I was going to write a defense of my community, but after a dozen years of being good enough for our receivers to consider us 'admin' I really don't feel the need anymore.

Lord Ratner Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Confirm tanker dude?Yeah, we have a few named people at EGUN. On the less surprising side, when our copilot exec let us know we were having a "roll call" on Friday afternoon, a boom sarcastically asked if someone would be taking actual roll... Because no one would be dumb enough to think you actually call out roll at the start of a roll call... Oh how they laughed and laughed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustache Sally Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Wing-approved Friday shirts BANNED in my corner of the Air Force UFN. I figured this would happen and totally called it a few months ago. This is exactly why I don't participate in standardized morale. I don't know the story behind it, but here is what I DO know: we need to stop acting like high school JV cheerleaders and act like....oh I don't know...adult MILITARY members. I am just so disgusted by this childish organization. Anyone else out there having Wing-approved wardrobe malfunctions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornholio5 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) Talk about a complete waste of time. Our wing has "approved" Friday patches and shirts too. There is even a local reg posted that gives the guidelines. The fact that someone spent the time writing this reg demonstrates how inefficient and misprioritized an organization we are and how we waste time on queep BS. I'll tell you what, though, having Friday shirts and patches back really increased my morale and desire to remain in the awesomeness that is active-duty! I am much more resilient now, too!!!

Mustache Sally Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I completely agree Cornholio! For the brief month or so that we had our Friday pieces of flair I nixed my plans to PC into the ANG/Reserves, didn't want to kill myself, and not once did I sexually assault someone! But now that it is gone...here's no telling what I might do. I should log into ADLS to see whether there is a CBT that will properly train me to handle this traumatic incident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sky_king Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Here's a sneak peek for you ladies at what I'll be doing if I get RIF'd... writing ChickLit. It's probably just as important to the defense of the nation as the monkey dance I do on a daily basis right now anyway. The Wg/CC enters the building on a friday shortly after the lunch push. As he walks the corridors that are dimly lit by flickering fluorescent lighting, he overhears muffled laughter deep within the training office. "Clearly, this can't be productive." He mutters under his Elmer's glue scented breath. "Laughter in the office can only come from a sexual or racially insensitive joke." The colonel continues his journey to the squadron commander's office, hell bent to know why his people are not taking the training seriously... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeFSU Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Does anyone know if AV8R Stuff (av8rstuff.com) is still in business? I've tried emailing them and the email address is unknown. I'd like a confirmation that they are open for business before entering my credit card info into their website. I did a search on the forums and didn't find anything.

I ordered some pen tab patches from them about 6 months ago, no issues. I was skeptical as well if they were still in business.
