  1. fwiw, the last guy I knew that left the jet non-experienced, is back in the jet. 11F's are the flavor of the month, in case you hadn't heard. For that matter, I'm at PIT and I can count the number of 11F's going through training right now on one hand, so...
  2. What Air Force are you living in? This is our exact vision going forward, up to and including service chief/secretary testimony to congress. Get on board.
  3. That's like asking why folks watch Nascar...
  4. Manchester... But hey, keep up the good fight!
  5. Happens every year. My YG was 113 pin-on's per month until Nov, then everyone cashed out between Nov and Dec.
  6. Uhhhm, no. No you would not. We proved that during the last CSAF era (double down SEPTS in the sim for all my friends on Mondays! I agree with you in principle, but in practice...at least pretend to be intellectually honest. That's the root of the problem. Whether it's patches or hats or ABUs or bags, we're bitching about some really trivial shit. (Have to implicate myself, I bitched about and/or notched blues mondays with the rest).
  7. Shared custody, or single-man rules? Age? Toddler, elementary, or is she somewhat self-sufficient? I was in a shared custody arrangement (though I was primary) while there. The toughest part was Mids, although if she is school age, this is much less of a problem--I slept while my kids were at school, thereby staying on schedule over my weekends. Toughest part about it was not being able to shut your phone off in case the school calls.
  8. Somewhere at A1, there is a slide that challenges this convention.
  9. FFS, it's not that tough. Don't be a DB. If you graduated college, then be sober when you show up in the morning, and you'll do fine.
  10. No, but I'd be glad to pass it along 8am: Start a rumor 10am: if you haven't heard your rumor yet, start another...
  11. Dammit, Siri!!!
  12. You may at some point come to understand that the report was crafted, by design, to upset you. It was released specifically to elicit an emotional response, decoupled from reason and informed thinking. And taken at face value with no counterpoint, it is natural for you to be upset. Despite the fact that I do not agree with all of the methods, I am not upset, but then I have the luxury of not being under the same illusions. Call back after MQT. You were the target audience of this report.
  13. Park it on the lemon lot for 20% over market value. Should still be there in 4-5 months...
  14. Name one adversary that has treated a captured U.S. citizen even semi-humanely when captured. Ever. The best that you'll find is probably the germans in WWII, and that was no Club Med.
  15. 365's aren't part of the force management initiative. 365's are the lead force management initiative. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wMEq1mGpP5A?autoplay=1
  16. He heard that Delta is supposed to hire 1500 next year.
  17. Most safety investigations that I've seen have done a decent job of sorting out the CFs, Fs, and NFWODs. For the most part, this thread is drivel, imo. FWIW, I'm probably biased, having a degree in HF. Actually, I took a few classes with Doc Weigmann at Illinois; great prof, and I don't remember him coming off as peddling tripe to further a rabbit trail agenda. If anything these days, its this, to some degree:
  18. . Wonder if Scooter IPs felt that way.
  19. That's fine except Lt's aren't real people.
  20. "The CDC's decision to play up flu deaths dates back a decade, when it realized the public wasn't following its advice on the flu vaccine. During the 2003 flu season "the manufacturers were telling us that they weren't receiving a lot of orders for vaccine,"Dr. Glen Nowak, associate director for communications at CDC's National Immunization Program, told National Public Radio. "It really did look like we needed to do something to encourage people to get a flu shot." Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  21. 1) Behave and/or make conciliatory gestures 2) Negotiate aid, which will go directly to the military 3) Nearing the end of the aid package, rattle sabre / lob rockets over Japan into the pacific / underground nuke test 4) Get additional aid with the condition that you'll stop acting like a meth addict 5) Lather, rinse, repeat Been repeating the same Nick At Nite episode since the Soviets left.
  22. I'll go out on a limb here and say that you'll have much bigger near rocks to contend with in that scenario, and the rest of your life to deal with the minutiae. Good luck to you guys pulling this mission. Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
