  1. Unless he's the type to be gunning for 4 BTZ to O-7, he should be laughing all the way to the beach.
  2. Are we talking 5 days to in-process or 15 months to in-process and get MR in your new ride?
  3. So what was "normal" is now a "surplus?"
  4. Everyone's out.
  5. Hopefully you'll both, "Don't do something, just stand there." Yes, if you're talking about a taxable/brokerage account and not an IRA, TSP, 401k, etc, then you'll owe capital gains on your growth. That could be long term (rate varies) or short term (taxed like income), depending on when you bought and also how you track your cost basis. If you have a low income year or deploy or whatever, you can use that to reset your cost basis with "tax gain harvesting" and pay 0% LTCG.
  6. Ask your wife. She's the one that'll live there.
  7. Maybe they worked, maybe they didn't, but I wouldn't expect anything else from RT.
  8. Big AF's got no love for the Herk. Sure ain't gonna give any respect to a Bird Dog or Husky. I can hear the laughs when a mx squadron commander goes to AMC with a magneto funding request.
  9. As long as you don't expect to go from Little Rock to a fire in 6-9 months, you can probably get there eventually. After MAFFS 7, they tightened up the experience minimums. Either way, MAFFS is a fraction of the mission so make sure you're joining wanting to do the Herk mission. You'll do a lot more of that than fires, even once you have the experience for MAFFS.
  10. The threat of prosecution/termination. And for long term orders (30+ or so) I think you give a copy of your orders to the job that pays the bills.
  11. IMA Recruiter: "Hey, NGB, I'm hurting on my quarterly numbers. Think you can hook a brotha up?" NGB: "Yeah, sure, watch this."
  12. It stands for Airline Manpower Delivery. They're really good at their job.
  13. The withholding rate has nothing to do with what you actually pay in the end.
  14. Very well done. With that said, an alternate ending:
  15. Don't worry about it. I kept personal logs because I'm OCD like that. You can walk into any airline interview with your ARMS records and (maybe) a basic Excel conversion/assumptions sheet and be fine.
  16. Search for milcomp. You get it all automatically.
  17. You land, debrief, log in to three different computers to find one that works, you do your post mission paperwork, and it's now 2am. Are you gonna drive home?
  18. C-5 near home. Get a job at Home Depot until you learn the ropes. I bet you can bum "full time."
  19. I don't think the airlines need a safety down day, if that's what you're getting at.
  20. Dunno. I didn't watch the iterations that carefully and I don't commute more than 100 miles any more. I just know my HR Block tax quiz (spoiler alert: I barely passed) asked me about my Reserve commute so it seems they knew about the 2018 law.
  21. If you travel 100.1+ miles for duty, get a new CPA. https://www.irs.gov/publications/p3#en_US_2018_publink1000176171
  22. If you're going to fly, stay AF. The aviation grass isn't greener in other services. Except maybe CG, but they have their own issues.
  23. I hope he feels like I felt when I left active duty. Man, there are dudes out there making way more than me, spending more time with their kids, and not fearing their inbox. What do I have to do to get there!?! And then I hope he goes to the education office and signs up for a BS from somewhere other than ERAU.
