  1. Step 1, stop digging ....
  2. I appreciate them for what they are: clowns destroying their bodies for my entertainment. Nothing more. Don’t take your social/political/societal cues from professional gladiators nor allow their opinions the same weight as real people ....
  3. (Not this shit again meme) the predictions and prognostications are published to influence people that can’t think critically for themselves. And it’s gonna go full retard before too long. Thats why I only read beer labels and watch cartoons. If it’s of significant importance, it will show up there.
  4. Talk to Sheppard air, but I think you have to take the mil comp test once. After that, just add on with form 8s at the fsdo office. Btw, the milcomp cfi test is orders of magnitude easier than the atp written.
  5. The deployment isn’t really the crux of the issue. The issue is who’s in charge of your future and who gets to make the yes / no decision. And that has been trending towards big blue for a little while now. They Don’t have to make people want to stay if they don’t have a choice.
  6. The real question is why are you hearing about this here, and not from management?
  7. Yup. And take a mil comp written test (that is orders of magnitude easier than the Atp written) and get MEI/CFII. Easy application points.

  9. This one is double edged. Yes, there are fewer 365s. But they are almost all 179s now. 179s are a lot less painful, yay us! But you also can’t 3-day opt a 179, yay Usaf retention. I doubt the actual number of deployed occupied desks making coffee and checking slides has changed significantly.
  10. You’re not obliged to ride with the guy who has the rental car 24/7.
  11. It’s airline intro training
  12. Boredom is a serious concern.....
  13. Maddog. Its hot, shitty, and goes to a lot of terrible places. 3-5 legs per day. But I’m at 50% seniority after a little over a year, only sat reserve for 2 months, and haven’t worked a weekend since the first month. Seniority is key.
  14. Tricare standard. Go where you want. When you want. No permission. No referrals. Just like champus for those of us that grew up with it. You pay 20%. $3k max out of pocket for the year for the family. A similar plan at delta is $700/month with $13k family max. Thats almost half a trip per month I dont Have to work for healthcare. Yes. 20 years is worth it.
  15. Having grown up a dependent, and then putting in my own 20 years....our medical support/service has declined exponentially.
  16. Boredom is a legitimate concern.
  17. I had 2 1/2 weeks off into a trip starting tomorrow. I’ll work sun-wed the rest of the month. I’ll gross around 10k. Delta, year 2
  18. You don’t have to decontaminate equipment if it never leaves the Cbrne area ....
  19. Is it still a different Adsc to transfer to spouse vice kids? or put another way, if you transfer some to a spouse at the 15 year point, and have a kid at the 17 year point, can you transfer to a kid? does any transfer open the doors to redistribute? Or are there different levels of transfer?
  20. If you are close* to an AD retirement, it is entirely worth it. The savings on family health insurance over the course of an airline career are absurd. And the cash for life makes year one pay palatable. *-within 3 years or so....depending on how bad you’ve got it.
  21. Vote with your feet!
  22. My current assignment gives me 2 1/2 weeks contiguous off this month, and I’m only working Sunday-Wednesday the rest of the month. Did I mention it’s like that every month? 2nd year pay on the maddog, grossing $10k-$12k a month. Getting tired of fishing... vote with your feet!
