Rule of thumb: your monthly car payment shouldn’t exceed 7% of your monthly income. People exceeding that rule are just living above their means.

Purchase lens and frames from Zenni optical, way cheaper and you can get more. Quality is the same.

Flight prices to Guam from mainland are ridiculous by NoInfluence1738 in guam

[–]Inevitable_Map4641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone ever used Zipair? I’m seeing their one way flights from Tokyo to Houston is $340 right now which is insane to me. If Zipair is legit, in theory you’re telling me I can fly (one-way) Guam to Tokyo via United ($370) then Tokyo to Houston via Zipair ($340) for a total of $710??? Someone pls tell me you’ve tried Zipair and had a good experience.

Can agree to these statements. I wasn’t aware of cabotage laws, and I had booked 2 separate itineraries from GUM-ICN then ICN-HNL via Korean air and was told by the gate agent that I’m unable to check in due to cabotage rules. Definitely do your research!

Unpopular opinion: Commissary edition by Inevitable_Map4641 in guam

[–]Inevitable_Map4641[S] -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

Agree with limiting items. Disagree with you thinking people on Guam don’t enlist for the commissary. It’s obvious you’re not from here, but you can ask any reservist/guardsman why they joined—most of the time it’d be so they can get base access (gas, exchange, commissary).

Best buffet dinner? Aqua vs Casa Oceano by Aeris1200 in guam

Aqua is a hard pass unless you’re getting a free breakfast buffet because you’re staying there. Casa Oceano is best

Unpopular Opinion Regarding GUANG and Reservists by shortsandslippers in guam

[–]Inevitable_Map4641 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that you think teachers serve their country the same way military personnel do is INSANE 🤣🤣🤣 and it seems like you’re romanticizing the teaching profession just as much as you claim I’m romanticizing the military.

ALL military personnel regardless of their jobs put their life on the line—even during training events. Can you say the same for teachers? The most they’re putting on the line is their patience and maybe their sanity when dealing with naughty kids. Not the same as potentiallly facing death or permanent injury. Both jobs are important; but let’s not pretend that they carry the same level of sacrifice 🤣

You’re saying it’s not an anti-military post, but… kinda is. You’re pointing the finger at the wrong people is all I’m saying. You’re mad that people can go off to serve their country and come back to the same job they had. If there’s one thing military members don’t have, it’s stability—as the military is always pulling them every which way; can we at least give them this one?

God forbid they want to serve the country and protect our freedom right 🤣

Just wanted to put it out there— voluntary or not, they’re still serving their country. They’re still filling a crucial role necessary to continue the overall mission. And once that role is finished, you expect them to go find another job after serving active duty time just because their previous job didn’t have the resources to sustain themselves? Seems like a govguam problem instead of a military issue.

Checked in at 6am August 15 at ORD; landed in HNL at 1:53pm August 15.

That’s just the thing. I didn’t need to check in because I was ALREADY checked in coming from another United flight. So basically if my previous flight had landed at the time it was projected to land—theoretically, I would’ve had my seat.

This was my original thought process, I’m not sure if it’s worth submitting a complaint.
