    FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)

    in General Discussion

    "2" on the knock it off with the melo drama. You sound like a teenage girl. These are some real gems:

    You are not the only person in the Air Force working hard. You just come across as bitter, angry, and lacking class.

    Thanks for explaining to all of us what sport bitching is. This is the first I've heard of it. Also, if this website is your sanctuary you're doing it wrong.

    Copy. It is someone else's fault. You have been wronged. You are really one of the bros that guys want to have in the squadron, but you can't sacrifice anymore. Have some class dude.

    Not really. Either you were naive or you didn't read the contract. Or, like the rest of us you signed up because you wanted to fly jets in the Air Force and be a part of something bigger than the corporate world. Either way, you signed up to be an officer or enlisted person in the Air Force. If you're a pilot you then signed an 10+ year commitment. Do you feel the Air Force is being unfair by giving you options to get out of your commitment or pay you to leave prior to 20?

    Dude I don't know what you've endured, but I seriously wish you the best, as well as every other dude on here looking to capitalize on the TERA, VSP, RIP, etc. Here is a little free advice; have some class and think about what you're saying. Like Gearpig said, if a poorly managed force management process puts you over the edge then you need to get some professional help. These problems exist in the civilian world, and most companies do not continue to pay you while they decide whether or not to let you leave early.

    Sport bitch away, but don't lose your ######ing mind.

    They were meant to be gyms...I am glad you noticed. And my mind, it is already lost. Professional help why did I not think of that or I could say no shit. For those of you considering "professional help" the meds do take the edge off if you ever feel the need. Advice ususally is not free, I mean the amount of effort and time you put into a beatifully articulated response had to be worth something, right? Not to mention the attempt to knock me down a peg. I am bitter, angry, happy, sarcastic and at times purpously lack class but that is my business. I have a reason for feeling that way and since so many seem to care it is not because I was beaten down by the man it is because 300 thousand of us are suffering from shit they can't explain and have to learn how to live life all over. Just be lucky you are not one of them.

    I sincerely wish everyone the best. Regardless of their desires, story, beleifs, bitterness, you name it I do not care. That was the point, stop being so ing judgemental of others over this crap.

    I am leaving because I have to not because I do not want to push a mission anymore. I simply got lucky, really lucky, with the timing of TERA. Doing what I did was ing awesome.

    And "Sport Bitching" why did I not think of that..brilliant.

    I've seen this come up in several posts in this thread in particular. I don't know you chizz so nothing personal but /rant on

    Are you guys ######ing serious? I hope there is a good bit of "10% truth" when dudes claim that their productivity has plummeted and all they do is job surf and check AFPC systems.

    I 7-day opted an assignment, got sent anyways and am currently navigating the Palace Chase process; I get it...hell I think anyone with half a brain thinks this force management process (and many things about the Air Force) is totally ######ed. But come on, there's still a job to do and I signed on the dotted line to do it. No one has been stop-lossed or has missed a paycheck.

    If anyone who worked for or with me stopped doing their job and was constantly job searching while at work, they wouldn't be slacking off for very long. Be an officer, nut up and give the job your all until the day you hang it up, whether that's 20+ or just until your most lengthy sentence is served. Serious question: do guys claiming they're basically ROAD not feel responsible for their units mission or mentoring younger guys to take their place? Where I come from both of those things are important and full-time jobs unto themselves.

    All this might be a minority opinion but it needs to be said...hopefully by front line supervisors and Commanders and not just some guy in the internet. /rant off

    Everyone has a different outlook for different reasons, your outlook is as respectable as the other guys. Some of us are spent, broken, kaput: mind, body and soul...My username is literal, as for the three midget hookers...on my bucket list? Shit posted here is so we can bitch and moan, joke and bullshit. It is a sanctuary for those of us who have practiced the fine, time honored art of bitching and moaning for so many years with good ing reason. Do not be so blind to see not everyone is going to get out and be able to utilize their ATP, 5 type ratings, Aviation Masters + Bachelors, take care of their family, sleep soundly and wake up refreshed, etc etc...some of us lost it all because a billion zillion tards either lined their pockets or got promoted. I signed up with the understanding I would not be deceived nor forgotten, pretty sure that is not the case. With a little research I could show at least 300K+ ture Americans, from within the last 10 yrs, likely feels the same way as I do and the number is growing. Even after everything I still give it my all everyday; but that does not mean a whole lot these days now does it? So one has to ask; where will YOU draw the line and say " it"? I do not even know you but hope you never have to draw that line. Do the rest of us a favor and just knock it off. If you are not sure what knock if off means then you are probably in the wrong blog.

    Please refrain from making any inquiries on the status of your case prior to receiving a response from HQ AFPC. Doing so will cause your case to change to an incorrect status and you will no longer be in the correct status for the final Approval/Disapproval decisions.

    Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated

    Very Respectfully,

    HQ AFPC Retirements & Separations Branch

    Yup...my heart stopped beating for about 20 seconds then I nearly shit myself. Dude I do not want to go out like that.
