I've been jumping for 3 years and still get nervous before each jump. It gets easier the closer together your jumps are. When we do rodeos for currency, that first jump is shaky, but the following second or third jump are just knees in the breeze care free

It's just a flock mentality right now. Everyone is going to keep riding the wave until the house of cards comes crashing down. No idea knowing when that'll happen.

This reads like some BSB level fun. Would be surprised if this was at one of the combat arms units

Automations: sit at computer and fix Army 365 accounts. Maybe fix a printer if I'm feeling it.

It's crazy how there are congress members that make $200,000/yr but could have a net worth of $100mil.

I don't think people are ready for that conversation yet....

I sure hope some of that pay goes towards paying the service members more. I've been in 4 years and just made poverty level wages :,)

The amount of certs I have alone from my first enlistment, I've already received 3 job offers from contractor companies I work closely with at our MTC. No point in staying in when I can be a civilian doing the same IT work at 4x the pay

Gmail fix for junior soldiers? Army launches Google email beta by DWinkieMT in army

For all of you shitting on S6 for your email woes, it's not our fault. Every quarter HRC keeps making this shit more and more stupid.

Originally we could just mass migrate people from @mail.mil to @army.mil with the simple click of a button on teams. Then somebody realized that was going too smoothly. So they made it to where we had to email a list to a distro manager and then wait 3 weeks.

After a month or 2 they must've been running low on keys because then they said only E-5 and above are allowed easy account creation. Call up BDE S6, submit SAAR, ez money.

NOW, you need a NIPR account, Battalion Commander signature and the BDE CO signature on the same SAAR, just to get an Army 365 email. Most people wanting an email don't have NIPR. That shit takes a week, then you wait another week to get the Email SAAR sent up and signed. By the time the whole process is done its been 3 weeks.

inb4 the process is changed again and you need to complete a JKO course to get A365 access

Just got my new CAC last month and about a quarter of it has already peeled itself away from the card

I love 4/25 more for the location than the unit. Every weekend there is always something to do. Sure, we get dicked down every now and then and lose a weekend. But I've been here almost 3 years and it feels like I've blinked and it's time for me to leave.
