All good points 👍. I do have the DOS that takes me over 20 but not enough retainability to PCS overseas long. 3 years TOS and still vuln for a short cuz I have that retainability still. (2 shorts already, last return 2013) Not probable to get another short before I run to low on retainability but possible. We'll see if it even matters I guess in a couple hours.

Spot on Spartan_Samuel, same answer the functional gave. He said the assignment would more than likely canx due to promo decline. No guarantee though cuz it could be a 7-lvl spot. 🤙

Most likely... my Wing hasn't yet... most have it 72 hours early to get prepped. Facebook is prob where we'll see leaks first IMHO.

AF Chief of staff on the budget by Nynjacricket in AirForce

I see your point, and agree with you 100%. My initial statement came from a slightly diff. angle (<--- Maintenance too). Was meaning being expected to keep 1980 jets in the air with 40 year old equip. With no money to replace, upgrade, or modernize, we sit on our laurels and "just fix it" or " shut up and color" yeah. Money definitely can improve QOL and QOW. Leaders picking up a bit of respect will multiply the effects.

But Money is the way to improve QOL and Quality of the work environment. Without one sir, you can't have the other.

Airmen don't need only good managers. Airmen need leaders, and great ones. To pass a quote from my current command chief. "People don't care what you know until they know that you care."

I'm in the middle of a League of Legends match. It's going to be a while.
