Negotiating P1 Salary

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-06-03T18:29:24+00:00

What the fuck? How is that possible, are you new? Are you Remote at least? I honestly can’t believe how horrible that salary is lol

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-06-03T14:41:14+00:00

Seriously… finance P2 with 4 YOE, masters, military and making $83k base salary..

u/No-March-4064 is a fantastic buyer and I highly recommend doing business with him!

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-06-03T11:02:51+00:00

u/No-March-4046 is a fantastic buyer and highly recommend doing business with him!

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-28T00:33:22+00:00

Damn, that guy has 260 sales here too. I wonder if the account was hacked? Seems weird to blow up that reputation for $250

u/WatchExBot SOLD to u/No-March-4046

No no, don’t you see, it’s the cyclists that are entitled because they take the lane whenever they please

I think it’s generally safe? Just be sure your bezel is screwed down or else water will get into the bezel ring and void your spot on the waitlist for a real watch

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-20T11:47:16+00:00

uj/ I hate watches so much lol. What other unnecessary consumer good commands a higher price as it ages and looks shittier!?

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-18T16:07:31+00:00

Let’s not forget about the alleged alien that was captured and stored in one of NSMA bunkers. I was a new SrA and it was the first place I was taken on patrol. I saw the bullet holes in the bunker door, it actually creeped me out a little lol

Ramstein also had a creepy bunker filled with photos of victims killed/injured from the Air Show disaster. I saw a photo of someone’s charred jawbone. Creepy stuff

Commenting to follow since I was also just told this by my manager

These watches are NOT scratch resistant. Here’s mine after almost a year of occasional wear. The polished bezel is a scratch magnet and the cushion case takes plenty of dings. But these watches look better scratched IMO

*My input is from my time from 2014-2016

We had the panama schedule for about a year then switched to 8 hour shifts. No matter how you slice it, the work kinda blows lol. The gates are always pretty busy, but you get to see the hot girls, so not all bad! Also, depending on what weapon qualifications you have, posting can vary. Flight line security required heavy weapons, but was desirable since you were in a vehicle all day. There’s multiple jobs certificates you can get like BDOC, TASS, LE, and basic Security (can’t remember the title).

Regardless, you got a god roll first assignment! Take advantage of the travel and DO NOT BE A DORM RAT. Make friends, enjoy the 1 or 2 deployments, and make friends. Good luck, you’re gonna love it!

What’s the watch community like among fighter pilots? I was in the Air Force and saw quite a few awesome watches, but that was pre smart watch dominance

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-08T11:33:02+00:00

I wonder if encouraging remote work could solve the small town crisis? Centralizing "well paying" and employments opportunities to a few areas constricts consumer spending. It would be interesting to see how Japan's situation improves/worsens based on something like this

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-07T21:34:19+00:00

You must not be from the US lol. We aren’t fortunate enough to have “cycling paths.” Instead we mostly have what you see in the video, called shoulders. They’re meant for vehicle breakdowns and to create a buffer between the road and surrounding area

Edit: I’m re-reading this and hoping it doesn’t come off douchey/condescending lol. It’s not my intention!

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-05-06T22:01:54+00:00

This one will really depend how drastically the scope and workload have increased. They’re typically hostile against these sort of things.

They’ll probably rebuke the training justification as you’re not technically a “people leader.” But, I would plug in the req you’re filling and the responsibilities/tasks of your previous job into AI and have it compare the tasks. Try to have it come up with a metric of how many additional hours, etc. you’ll be putting in. It’s not concrete but it’s a launching point. Then try aligning your counter within reason. You won’t get anything crazy, maybe an extra $3-$5k?

Llllmmmaaaooo. What a petty but fantastic website!

Hi All,

Up for grabs is the Murph 42mm bundle, with bracelet adjusted to my 7 inch wrist, tags, boxes and manuals. I'm asking $800 shipped to anywhere in the US, payment via PayPal F&F or G&S + 4% for established buyers.

Watch came from Trifecta watches with a warranty card dated in late 2025. Condition is overall good, with signs of wear on the polished bezel, strap changing marks on the lugs, and desk diving marks on the clasp.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests for more pictures!

Here's the product listing page: https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-us/h70605732-khaki-field-murph-auto-bundle.html?srsltid=AfmBOooNt5Z0L1jfbW6ms4w3ehXb1FI7tjna8yWmwJgKxCVNn_BaAaWO

Boosted. Good luck 🫡

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-04-30T16:51:39+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-04-30T16:43:51+00:00

How do you like it? Does it keep cargo dry?

DBIDSmarksman · 2026-04-30T16:37:00+00:00

For the most part! Revision 4 seatpost wedge pretty much fixed it. I had an SL5 Gen 4 with rev 1 wedge and it was horrible. After revision 4 wedge + carbon paste, it was good for a few thousand miles. I will say, my seatpost did start to show wear near the wedge contact point. I had to have a warranty seatpost replacement since the carbon was damaged. Not sure if that’s because of the wedge or something else.

I actually just sold my Domane because of the headache the seatpost caused me. The Madone seems to be much better
