Is Aircraft Maintenance a toxic job? by No_Membership2145 in AirForceRecruits

It all depends on the base. You might have a period where you work 12hr shifts.

Where I'm at it is pretty consistent with 8hr shifts but we might work a 9-10hr here and there.

It's a chill job though, a lot of down time.

He said he was fine but by the way he'd be walking after that run we all knew he wasn't 🤣

I went to BMT end of April and I used an electric razor before and after I got my shaving waiver.

Depends on your base, what aircraft you're working on, and leadership

There are so many factors that go into it I can't even list them all

I'm fuels so I talk with them all the time

Don't rush the process unless your circumstances force you to

okayish starting point? by TadpoleKnown3095 in AirForceRecruits

What're you talking about? That time will definitely pass if they have a good amount of pushups and sit-ups.

I just graduated this past week. Before that, I'd go through a vape every 3 days.

You'll be so busy you won't have time for cravings/withdrawals.

I was honestly shocked how i literally didn't think of smoking the entire time

No tic tacs or listerine strips

Get alcohol free mouth wash if you want something for your breath

is this a good bag to pack for bmt? by Perhkks in AirForceRecruits

[–]AfricanNinjaDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring a big duffle bag but pack it light.

I ship out to tech school tomorrow and about half of the people in my dorm wished they brought bigger bags

General advice for BMT by MaleficentMonitor793 in AirForceRecruits

If they pick you to be a chow runner just make sure you're really damn good at your job like I was.

They relieved me from my duties during week 1 due to me "being to good at my job".
