He got fired after he didn't create a FB page. I was telling him I received a notification about the FB page my functional created. Definitely caused a flashback for him.... #1/10 FGOs/FB Creators Edited June 15, 2019 by Shazaam 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air Force Stemmed Its Pilot Crisis, Chief Says A widespread shortage threatening the core of the Air Force’s mission appears under control AF: “We have a massive pilot shortage! They’re leaving in droves. We need more money to fix this.” Congress: “You’re not getting more money, and It’s beginning to sound like you’ve been mismanaging your organization...” AF: “Actually, we just fixed everything. We’re good now.” 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
