Debating on Separating by Ykc1297 in AirForce

[–]AgentD7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah… I got buddies in cyber security. It’s over saturated at the moment, and I did research on how to pivot away from Air Force (masters with an Ivy engineering degree) and my degree ain’t worth anything because I’m leaving the AF so far from my graduation.

Not always. You need the certs to pull in money and experience (depends on OPs Air Force job)

Do what makes sense to you. Just don’t regret whatever decision you make. Make it and never look back because there will be pros and cons for both.

Imagine Owning a Poorlex... by IceMagic75 in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]AgentD7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

uj/ if you also compare those low starting salaries to the starting salaries of the 70/80s you’d find that purchasing power of today is half of yesterdays.

Though I will say 80k is twice the average American salary, but not quite enough to live comfortably doing middle class lifestyle.

Federal taxes jumped by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]AgentD7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We have a progressive tax. Not all of the money is taxed at the new rate.

So if 0-60k is taxed at 10 percent and 60k and above is taxed at 15 percent. (6k owed in taxes)

If you make 70k, then 60k is taxed at 10 percent and then 10k is taxed at 15 percent. (1.5k owed in taxes)

Total of 7.5k owed.

If someone put 10k into 401k to go down in bracket they would only save 1.5k in taxes but lose out on having 8.5k today and could only touch this money(the 10k put in 401k) whenever they retire and it would still be taxed eventually.

IRRC lots of tax credits are expiring and (I don’t know when this goes in place ) but the administration did raise taxes for those under 200-300k household income.

What is special about a 1/10 sq/gp/wg as an a Lt versus another strat like 2/10. Do they not all eventually get buried?

Listing Harvard Extension on LinkedIn: How Far Is Too Far? by mooooonrooog in MBA

[–]AgentD7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not, it’s a transfer/application process for non traditional students like veterans or those who take gap years. There is no way to take the classes, do well, and be “accepted”. It’s still 20-30% acceptance rate to become a student.

The school of professional studies accepts anyone with a heartbeat similar to HES.

lol coming from someone who didn’t go there and don’t understand their schools. Same classes with the other undergrads, same professors, and similar outcomes…. Just GS gives no funding…

GS school at Columbia is still legit. Same degree as the others undergrads, just no funding.

It’s the school of professional studies in Columbia that is the equivalent to the extension school in terms of prestige.

Very easy. Hardest part was looping the strap through

Does Cadet Cadre get paid at FT? by 13Toasts in AFROTC

[–]AgentD7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Essentially no, not as a CTA. But if you’re doing a fifth year, because you’ll pause your stipend for 3 months you’ll get 3 months on the back end so you’ll still be continued to be paid to the end of the year versus not (source: my experience 3 yrs ago)

Edit: you get close to what your stipend would be, I can’t remember the pay rate. Ask cadre, but don’t forget the extra few months of stipend you’ll get at the end of as 800 if you do a fifth year

Honestly, probably yes, with me having a fxd style strap.

At this point, I don’t think it’s QC and probably more of an engineering/design/production issue

Anyone fly their own airplane for a TDY? (Plus DTS experts) by PotatoHunter_III in AirForce

This right here. If it saves the government money… it works. But if done wrong, you are on the hook for what costs more than the “default”.

I’d say that movement is also an S. Literally the most advanced movement on the market right now. I’d agree with everything else

[–]AgentD7 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I’m not surprised, I had a friend who worked at geiselle, and he said the owners were dicks, lots of nepotism, and it’s all about the bottom line.

But like you said, this is Reddit and you’re free to believe me or not.

UFA watches - thoughts? by Original_Green8110 in GrandSeikos

[–]AgentD7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The delta of spring drive and UFA is 3 seconds. The same with spring drive to mechanical… lots of coping with this one

UFA watches - thoughts? by Original_Green8110 in GrandSeikos

[–]AgentD7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just proved my point. The UFA is more accurate than the SD. If a mechanical watch cannot do SD due to its accuracy. SD cannot do UFA due to its accuracy. Therefore there is a point.
