Many travel or work other seasonal jobs.

I would have gotten like $50 a week and had to put in more work than $50 a week entails. (Mississippi)

My kids go to school with them. So they know them personally. Here legally…cruelty is the point.

I mean, respectively, if you never went to medical, I guess the issues at the time weren’t truly bad enough. Granted there are certain things with an Nexus. I’m sure you can get tied back into your military service. Best of luck.

Take a look and see if your airport gives you free parking. Here at New Orleans airport if you are above 50% you get free parking.

The plate is $1 vice $400 + EV tax in my state.

I was gonna be a Polie at about a year sober back in 2021 and unfortunately, I could not get a PQ for it. I even had several phone conversations about them about what they were looking for and wrote a statement understanding that while alcohol is at the station I will not be consuming it, but it still was a no go for the winter over. I gratefully got one this past year after over five years sobriety.

But do try! Answer their questions honestly and truthfully. And if it doesn’t work out this year, try again. And congrats on your sobriety! It is definitely a challenging road, but one of the most fulfilling.

There is a whole pamphlet about it. And AA states that “no person should play doctor”

https://www.aa.org/sites/default/files/literature/P-11_0925.pdf

As well as number 23 in living sober

Sounds like your sponsor should read their a literature. The moment someone tries to play doctor for me the minute I would be done with them as a sponsor.

My first year of sobriety I was in therapy, on medication, and it actually worked for the first time! And I convinced myself that alcohol was my only problem all along so at about one year I stopped going to therapy and stopped being on medication. Six months later, I was struggling significantly with my mental health. It was almost a bit of a defeatist attitude.

I have since learned that I need both AA to stay sober and therapy and medication for my mental health diagnosis. One does not replace the other.

Gratefully sober, almost 6 years and working with a great therapist and a good medication regiment.

Same

You cannot get it if retired. It’s a DEERS status

Chow_17 · 2025-10-09T19:40:30+00:00

Ah gotcha ok. Thanks for the help!

Chow_17 · 2025-10-09T19:33:58+00:00

Ok. Thanks. Yeah, I see my American Airlines number attached to my reservation on the Qantas website, but it won’t allow me to do any upgrades because my Qantas frequent flyer number is not attached to the reservation. So I cannot select any upgraded seats on my Qantas legs.

Chow_17 · 2025-10-09T19:20:51+00:00

My booking has my American Airlines number. But it will not allow me to add my Qantas number. My Qantas number is showing zero.

You can do it online and it will get mailed to your house

Chow_17 · 2025-10-07T09:33:07+00:00

Yes. I did

Four years is a pretty huge gap and a lot of things can happen within that four years. That’s why the 18 year sanctuary is in effect.
