    DTS -> Next Generation Travel System - Ideas?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    It did come from Sec. Gates:

    http://www.acq.osd.m...s_Decisions.pdf

    See last page of the PDF file.

    So if everyone has to put it on every authorization...then why is it not standard? This should be autofilled or a check box, then just have a place to give a justification. At the very least, have the statement somewhere on DTS so I can cut and paste it into my authorization. The only plus side, is the smart ass comments I enter for my justification, at least I get a laugh...

    I'll second a page that looks just like the paper voucher. Fill it out and have the program pull all the info from this source. I'm guessing that this would cost the DOD another 300 mil, to make something like that happen though.

    1. What is the worst thing you hate about DTS?

    It's existence!

    2. What are some enhancements you would recommend?

    Ctrl-Alt-Del

    3. What are any features you like about DTS

    N/A

    Already a half billion pumped into the current system and it still has some issues.

    We've pumped half billion into this POS!?!?!

    Go back to paper vouchers.

    THIS!

    Just get rid of that fucking system! It takes me 2-5 minutes max to fill out a paper voucher! Prior to DTS, I never had a problem, getting airline tickets/hotels/rental cars. Since switching to DTS, I have yet to go on a TDY where something wasn't totally fucked with DTS. We still have the same number of finance folks as before we switch to DTS. Now they spend most of their time fielding calls on how to un-fuck a DTS problem. Also please train your folks to screen the whole voucher before rejecting, rather than just sending it back at the first thing they find.

    My favorite is having to put a statement in there as to why I can't accomplish my business via secure video teleconferencing (SVTC)...on EVERY voucher! Finance, apparently doesn't think my justifications are as funny as I do. But seriously...I'm flying a fucking jet to DEPOT! Is this statement really needed?

    WTF? (**NSFW**)

    WTF is right...where in the Air Force are there hot chicks like that??

    They're actually all over...lots of fun. Best done on TDY, NOT you base, things just work better that way.

    So, the students thought it was funny, the teacher thought it was funny, and all it took was one parent to turn it into a scandal.

    Jesus, we are raising a whole generation of self-entitled assholes if they can't cope with "being embarrassed in front of their peers".

    Korean War vet shoots intruder inside home

    Published May 09, 2012

    Associated Press

    ELIZABETH, Pa. – Police say an 84-year-old western Pennsylvania man wounded a home invasion suspect with the gun he carried in the Korean War.

    Elizabeth Township police say 25-year-old Raymond Hiles was captured not long after trying to break into Fred Ricciutti's home early Tuesday morning.

    Ricciutti tells WPXI-TV (http://bit.ly/JdVDJ1 ) he heard Hiles break a window and then confronted him, firing a single shot that grazed Hiles' neck.

    Investigators say Hiles was arrested a few blocks away, carrying a screwdriver and a stun gun. He's being held on $100,000 bail on charges including criminal trespass and burglary.

    Online court records don't list an attorney for Hiles.

    Authorities say they don't expect to bring any charges against Ricciutti.

    Drone Pilots: We Don’t Get No Respect

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I do not believe that RPA operators are in less danger than their manned counterparts.

    FUCK YOU!

    Blair wraps up by noting only the pilots who actually fly aircraft, and not drone jockeys, are eligible for combat medals.

    “On the current trajectory, the only Air Medals will be the ones in history books.”

    Who the fuck cares about medals?!?! You can have mine!

    The lieutenant is about the only decent looking one.

    True, she is the best looking one. But I'm with Grind on this one, i'll take my chances with second from the left. Plus, it's much more fun to chase enlisted chicks! :thumbsup:

    Also same results for leaving a steak knife from your catering job in your car in the school parking lot*.

    I guess that depends on where you grew up. A classmate of mine borrowed his dads truck, to drive to school on day. He didn't even think about the 30-30 hanging on the gun rack in the window of said truck. He just got pulled out of class and told to take it home...only after someone driving by called the school to report it. (circa 2000)

    Maybe that was the good old days,

    Good old days?!?! This was in the late 90's/early 2000's!

    but now your more likely to get a cluster of kids around the target of the bullying adding their own comments to the fray.

    Then it sounds like a cluster of kids (followers) with questionable morals/values. They know what's right and what's wrong, it just takes balls to stand up for those values. Great, sounds like we're raising a generation of pussies!

    We punish parents when their kids are truant, how about when their kids are assholes?

    I didn't say punish the parents. But if their kids do act like this, then they need to kick them in the ass! Or question the values that they have instilled (or didn't), in their kids.

    A well placed right hook solved my "bullying" problems in high school... Just sayin...

    2!

    To anyone that thinks some kids are bothered by consequences, read this article: http://www.aolnews.com/2010/10/09/a/

    WTF is wrong with kids these days?! This crap never happened at my school because we policed our own. You started bullying someone...you got the shit kicked out of you. I got in a fight with someone on the bus because he was wouldn't stop picking on a kid that had a learning disability. Bus driver looked in her mirror, saw me beating up said d-bag, and kept on driving. Got a nod from the bus driver as I walked off the bus...never heard anything more about it!

    I'm also going to place blame on the parents! If my old man found out I was picking on someone at school, he would have kicked my ass...and I knew he could do it! Another thing about going to a small school is half of my teachers either went to school with my parents, or where my parents teachers. So if I acted up, they didn't need to give me detention or the paddle (yes, we still had it up through the 6th grade), they could just tell my parents...which was far worse. I know they would have believed the teachers before any BS I tried to feed them.

    When is a Masters degree needed for a Guard Officer?

    in Air National Guard / Air Force Reserves

    Posted

    Is the Guard going to pay for our masters?

    Kind of off subject guys, but I am AD and want nothing more than to get out of this craziness called AD and join all my buddies in the guard/reserve. If I get passed over twice for O-4 while on AD, 1-will hiring boards look down on me because of that, and 2-will I still be able to be promoted to O-4 if I do get hired?

    I met a guy that asked to NOT be promoted to major, was passed over twice, then somehow was given a bonus to get out! He in-processed the reserves the day after he left AD and was promoted to major a month or so later.
