BashiChuni Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 9 hours ago, General Chang said: It is another way to get an “across the board” unofficial stratification early in your career (first vector as Major-select). Ensures we keep our bottom of the barrel-scrapping officers from being considered for joint jobs (can only go one up & one down). Also serves to start delineating who truly has the potential to become an HPO. Learn the system, folks! He’s back! YES!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same story for me, although after telling me I was picked up my CC said “I know you had a grand plan but making rank tends to change things.” Not for me...still putting my family first and still getting out at 20. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gave me a good laugh....I went into O-5 thinking responsibility would increase. I’ve not had less responsibilities since I was a captain. Being off the command track as an O-5 is magical. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMorgan Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Anyone know if it’s possible to Palace Chase a bonus commitment? I took the bonus expecting to either make it or be passed over IPZ and 1APZ and be a free agent, but with the new system I guess I have four more IPZ “No’s” awaiting me.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk FWIW, I took the bonus to 20 then got passed over. I then tried palace chasing before I was twice passed over as I wasn’t sure if I would be offered continuation and was denied palace chase due to low manning in my career field. I could be wrong but you may still be able to deny continuation and get out. I’d definitely verify that with AFPC if you end up getting passed over twice but if you do nothing the continuation paperwork should spell out everything. That was 2 years ago so YMMV depending on your MDS manning, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are looking into it and if they want to do it they will institute it in 2022/2023 from the email I received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't scrolled back through to check so I hope I'm not intruding here but if you know you didn't get selected and your "leadership" allows you to check the list tomorrow and not see your name, then that is an epic failure and pisses me off. Too much of that going around in today's Air Force. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much of that going around in today's Air Force. Well, I'm 3APZ and we half been at reduced manning where I am, so I'm not even sure what days our O-6 is in. Still, lots of time left in the day, so we will see what happens. I'm not too upset with it. I'm more upset with a promotion system that doesn't give feedback to folks (outside of "maybe next year!") but still expects people to run the race as hard as possible in the hopes of something positive happening. If the AF is going to make changes to the promotion system, make full-measures that are truly meaningful. Not half-measures that may, or may not, get implemented. /getsoffsoapbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
