Flaco Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Have any AD/ARC bubbas received a bonus payment yet? All the ANG pilots/navs I've asked are stalled at: "Referred to Guard-NGB ACP Program Mgt (A1PF) ANG." I'm ANG and mine (initial payment) took about 8 weeks. Word is there is a single person at NGB processing them for the entire ANG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifty-six & Two Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Since this thread is alive again... any word on what the take rates ended up being or are they still processing them? Still shows 54% take rate for the FY14 guys. I'm sure there are hundreds of applications just waiting to be processed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Haven't heard this rumor. What is being said? Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App! OG told us that a DSG bonus was all but approved...amount unknown. He did some digging and found out technicians would be eligible. Said it would be in FY 15. This was several months ago and haven't heard any updates since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love for our guys to get something for all the shit they have put up with the last 2 yrs. Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!

herkbum Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Just spoke with my OG/CC. He has not seen anything official. But, he stated his personal feeling is there is no way this gets instituted due to the current fiscal environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HercDude Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Drill Status Guardsman, aka a Traditional Guardsman. Really? What's the logic behind that? Are traditionals walking away from the service at an unacceptable rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herkbum Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Really? What's the logic behind that? Are traditionals walking away from the service at an unacceptable rate? Not in my unit. As I said earlier, my OG/CC didn't know anything about it and believes it will never happen. This forum is the first and only place I heard this bonus mentioned.

ViperStud Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Interesting. OG/CC at my unit told me it was more of a matter of if than when - as in will it make it in FY15 or not. Granted it was my interview so I didn't dig for details, but there was also no incentive to lie as I was not being hired as a dude that would be bonus eligible anyway. The guard and reserves are having issues with manning too - hiring freeze of sorts due to the 8/10-year ADSC shift, airline hiring, etc. Is it really a surprise they would throw money at the problem?

Flare Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 The line to get a part time guard or reserve job is a mile long at all the Viper units I've talked to. I can't believe they'd give one to the part time guys....especially with the way the airlines are hiring now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaded Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I've heard secondhand that many units are having trouble finding enough f-16 guys. Any truth to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwatch Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I've heard secondhand that many units are having trouble finding enough f-16 guys. Any truth to that? I've only talked to bros at three units, but they all say the same thing - get your resume squared away and knock out all available upgrades because the exodus from active duty has made even part time jobs competitive.

Jaded Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 It's interesting; I'd heard that guard units were having the same problem, with even AGR guys giving up their full time slots to take airline jobs. I had thought the airline hiring would hit active duty harder than it has, but maybe it'll hit the guard first. All heresy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe they'd give one to the part time guys....especially with the way the airlines are hiring now. Maybe we looked a different units but that is not a universal truth. I got hired this summer and had another option as well. I'm not talking about HO either. Some others aren't hiring, like Luke unless you want HO hanging over your head. However, there are jobs out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 My bro at a Reserve Viper squadron said they were having a hard time filling some full time spots. May be due to the fact that ARTs can't take mil leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Most of the Viper ARTs I know are just using it as a holding position until they get hired by the airlines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
