I will say this: for all of you complainers out there: seriously? You are complaining Uncle Sam took away your pittance $50K/yr to sign your life away for the next 12 years? Get over yourselves you premadonna punks! Get out of my Air Force and go make your money elsewhere. We don’t need you, and we don’t want you. But please, for the love of Pete, stop complaining about missing out on table scraps. It’s so unbecoming of an officer. Dude, you are more full of shit than a Christmas goose. Don’t hurt your arm grabbing for that whopping pay raise. $2-3k a month difference from 1 star to 4 star. YGBSM. That’s like…one extra premium pay day at the airline. Might have 2 hours of block time. This isn’t the flex you think it is. I do agree about the bonus complaints. Not offering a bonus will save a lot of bros from themselves. Run fellas, run!!

Duck Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Did the bonus pause only affect AD? The ANG Bonus page hasn’t been updated.Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brabus Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I haven’t heard anything regarding ANG pause. Which would make the whole thing that much more laughable. The ANG has been kicking AD’s ass on the bonus for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if joking. I’ve been off on other adventures for a while now so just getting back to BOps….not sure I’ve seen anything from Chang lately that convinced me he is actually a GO. Pretty sure I wouldn’t be all that impressed if he actually is, as I’m somewhat cynical of most GOs these days based on my first-hand observations. Perhaps there is at least insight to be gained…”what are those idiots thinking!?!”…sorta thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chida Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 My feeling is that nowadays no waivers are entertained at any level bc they gotta pump those numbers up. However, it doesn’t hurt to ask with a good story! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocialD Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 16 hours ago, StoleIt said: AFRC Bonus: Two questions. 1. What is SELRES ART? Is that different from the bonuses technicians already get from the technician system? We didn't have any pilot technicians left my last few years, so I can't remember how that all worked. 2. TR Bonus. Are your TR's getting bonuses for just staying in as part-timers, or do they have to go on orders to get that? If it's just to be part time, well played AFRC. There were rumors about in the in the ANG for years, but it never came to fruition during my time. We did have one thing that came out, but the requirements they slapped on it made it so one 1 or 2 of our DSG pilots were eligible. Basically, if you were prior-E, you were screwed. 7 hours ago, brabus said: Guard has a $30k/1 yr option, which is awesome. The only problem being, you have to go on orders to get it! .
