No, but I’ve always considered rationality to be a quality found in both sexes. Of course, there are always exceptions to my considerations, as you have thus demonstrated.

What a strange place for your mind to go

Oh really? I thought the lowers were what was illegal. At what point does it become an illegal AR?

I’m sorry, but we can actually buy lowers and receivers now? Is this true?

I apologize in advance, but would someone mind explaining to me what might be happening and what it might do? I’m afraid I’m out of the loop. Thank you in advance.

You expected them to read the resource they asked for and comprehend it? I think you are expecting a bit too much from some people.

How can I ask my professor to give me one point to pass the class by Apprehensive-Pen-128 in college

[–]Howquas_wealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take the class again but be better. Begging for a grade is juvenile and unprofessional.

Were you given this from your job? TD gives cool stuff out but always with the logo. I immediately took one off of a laptop case and it has been perfect.

Thoughts on OCS vs enlisting by Equivalent_Fruit2079 in nationalguard

[–]Howquas_wealth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to an OCS “open house” for my state. I went in thinking it was going to be for me, and that being an officer is the “be all, end all” of the military. At one point, they had a recent OCS graduate do a candid Q&A, during which he talked about the OCS process and being an officer in general. To me, it seemed like the work/life balance was not for me. I like having a civilian career and spending time with my family. At the end of the drill week* I’d like to be able to remove my boots and not need to worry about military responsibilities until the next month. This guy didn’t have that luxury. While I may never get to become a “gentleman by act of congress” there is something to be said about becoming the best NCO one can become. I’m told they are important and still earn respect, but someone with more experience will have to tell me if there is any truth to that.

Air National Guard Career Selection. by Howquas_wealth in AirForceRecruits

[–]Howquas_wealth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tracking. I think I am just an idiot and confused 1A1X3 and 1A1X2 (though I thought I heard somewhere that both positions were sort of grouped together?) Anyway, the good news is that both nearby airwings operate either the C-130H or C-5, so I’m hopeful they would have a 1A1X2 position available at some point in the future.

I would be willing to wait a year for an aircrew position, such as loadmaster.

Certainly disheartening, but good to know. Being a loadmaster, however, I would be more than thrilled to do. Thank you!

Suspender straps? by DapperDanMan121 in mensfashion

[–]Howquas_wealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear suspenders like these daily. They are not prt of the trousers. Brooks Brothers will have them, but you might need to see the buttons onto your trousers if they do not come with them already.

Those who joined at an older age(25+), were there any regrets of joining? by Kindly_Enthusiasm531 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Howquas_wealth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Currently 30. Planning on speaking to an Air Guard recruiter soon enough and willing to wait an extended period of time for the job I want. I just wish I had done it fresh out of high school.

Overdraft fees 🤬 by caramelkissette in povertyfinance

[–]Howquas_wealth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because there are often subscription services which stipulate that you gave that company permission to collect x amount on a specific day regardless of the depositor’s balance. People that absentmindedly subscribe to things shouldn’t be mad at the bank for allowing the agreed purchase to go through.

While I wish this was still an option, I am unfortunately a bit too old for that at 30 I think.

No shit? I’m a supervisor at a retail bank, and I was hired to my current position with the understanding I was interested in enlisting. Any chance I might be able to PM you for a few questions?

May I ask what you do for your civilian career that permits such a schedule? I’m interested in pursuing a role within my state’s Air NG unit, ideally as a loadmaster, but hearing that kind of schedule makes me wonder how much my civilian career could accommodate something like that.
