When I was in, the "yes" men (men- genderless humanoids for sensitive people) seemed to push whatever shit came their way. There was very little push back (if any), even if the tasker was ridiculous and there weren't enough bodies to fly and plan tea parties. Regardless of how stupid the tasking was. If leadership said so, then we must do it. No questions asked. More often than not, they seemed more excited to do meaningless taskers than to fly a low level NVG formation sortie in the mountains (fun tasking lol). Bronze stars for the power point warriors! The kind of humanoids that like to punish you for not wearing a reflective belt during the invasion of a sovereign country, are the same breed of leaders who were on the Covid vaccine patrol. Good thing the Iraqis didn't see us without our reflective belts! Good leadership looks after their people. They don't try to fck them over every chance they get. Leadership 101. Nothing quite like getting Chiefed after flying for 30 days straight following the Mar 20, 2003 invasion. It's like they had no idea that we were invading a sovereign country, they were just infatuated with making you wear that reflective belt to the chow hall.

https://nypost.com/2023/01/12/canadian-school-demands-dress-code-after-trans-teacher-controversy/ I found out the problem with the education system here in Murica. We need more "extremely effective" teachers like this good hearted woman. "What is a woman? I don't know."- Party of Science.

Some people are into pain for pleasure.

😆 🤣 😂

Do you have to be married to take the 12 weeks of baby leave? If not, you could go to your favorite SE Asian country, Eastern Europe, Colombia and etc..to raw dog some chicks a few times a year. Have them popping out kids like a factory, getting a few extra months off a year. Dudes like Nick Cannon, with 12 kids, would have a lot of time to relax on Uncle Sugar's dime. The secret is not having the babies in the US. That way you can avoid child support. You can use the bonus to help pay for all of the travel costs. Lol

Standing by for them to find out that he's really been dead since 2019 and they've been pulling a "Weekend at Bernie's" on us this whole time.

"Air Missions". What if you're not doing a mission? Maybe it's just a training sortie. I'm offended that they assume everyone that is flying is performing an operational mission. That's cultural appropriation. Really? Airmen is offensive? They should have changed it to Notice to Flying Genderless Humanoids. Fking Nerds Afterthought: Special consideration required operating the air machines, or simply SCROTAMs would ensure that nobody gets gender involved with flying duties. Make sure to check the SCROTAMs before you step.

Body by AMC. Lol They should've brought back the bike test. Nothing quite like getting an excellent immediately after smoking a few Marlboro Red 100s.

Some jackass turned on the sprayers without having the CSO scan for cameras. There will be an FCIF released.

She's definitely an Enid 10!

Lol You can take the CSO out of the Navigator but you can't take the Navigator out of the CSO.

But you may be asked to pull someone's finger in the cockpit....lol

I agree with you FLEA. But......lol Isn't PME supposed to take care of the education? Edit: I'm only a tactical level dude but shouldn't new Lts focus on flying? Not a a BS degree that means nothing.. it only takes up more time away from their aircraft and personal time. Why get a useless degree as an aviator unless you are in the plan? The AF has PME to educate future leaders. They should use it. Making your officers get an additional degree kind of says PME isn't as good as an online masters from Dip N Dots.

I didn't get my masters (didn't get promoted either lol). I think it's more important to leadership than knowing how to fly. Except, in the civilian world. Nobody cared about a masters for my multi-engine, ATP or type rating. In my limited time at the regionals, not a single Capt asked me about what degree I was pursing or if i did my SOS via correspondence or in residence. They were talking about how the airlines work, how to do the IRONMAN TWO into LAX and how to get into the Majors. For the most part, nobody cared about what I did as an officer, other than my aviation experience and hours. I got treated the same as the 22 year old CFII in my class. If I sucked, they let me know. My sim partner, a civillian who I thought was a good pilot, failed his ATP checkride in the morning SIM with the same Evaluator I was scheduled with in the afternoon. I didn't find out about it until the next morning when the Chief Pilot met with us to welcome us to Compass. He wasn't at the table with us and the Chief Pilot. 2 out of the 5 guys in my class failed their ATP/Type Rating. Once again, the civilian world doesn't care what you did before as an officer. They care about how to "fly" (manage the FMS and AP lol) not about how you were the General's aide with a Masters in butt licking.

When people figure out how to do this, they usually have a better life. We think we're so important. A lot of people forget that we are all going to die. In the end, none of this bullshit matters. We're on a spinning rock, floating through an expanding universe, which at this moment, I'm not thoroughly convinced that anybody knows how the universe got here in the first place. Drink a cold Busch Light and relax. Life is short. You never know when you might hit the dirt upside down.

Lloyd, I think we're all on the same page. Nobody is advocating for abortion and deadbeat dads. We're highlighting the hypocrisy of this issue in America. A woman can kill her unborn child and go to Applebee's right after. She's not held to the same standard as a man who doesn't want his child. If a drunk driver kills a pregnant woman and her child, they can charge the drunk driver for 2 counts. Why is one murder/manslaughter and the the other not? That is the question.

Evil is in the eye of the beholder. I'd say that some of the Iraqis we killed during the invasion might call us evil. Even their families might think of us as evil to this day. Dropping the nukes on Japan might be seen as evil to some people. The profession of war is pretty gnarly. We're dancing on the line between good and evil everytime we send 18 year olds to kill with rifles. I got paid a decent wage to participate in war. I didn't do it for free and sure the 9/11 patriotism was flowing through my veins at the time OEF/OIF kicked off, but I joined before 9/11 to have fun and earn a paycheck. Am I evil? Some might say so. I willingly joined the profession of arms for fun and a paycheck. In the end we all have to live with our consciences. Even the lady who aborts her child. In my opinion, the evil ones don't care about what they did.
