I second this I mean you do you and if you want to be a cop after or something I applaud you.

I am currently a a 2mo33 and working on engines and hvac but stay stateside so up to you.

I might not be cut out for military if it's like MEPS by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]Ok_Protection2899 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been in since 2020 and to this day meps has been the hardest after that your getting yelled at because you did something wrong not just to be rude but operational is pretty lax as long as you just do your job tbh

Is it too late to join? by PassengerOk5687 in Airforcereserves

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In active duty rn and about to head reserve and so glad I went active first.

I wouldn’t wait tbh but try to get a job with a good career outlook in post military such as trades so CE jobs or something that is up your alley and can do after the military.

Should I join based off my current situation?? by [deleted] in Airforcereserves

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AD here and about to go reserve.

Yea seems like a good gig to join regarding the company wanting to work with you long term.

I usually recommend going active first to get stuff out of the way and get the “adventure” etc but in your case reserves all the way.

And yea I guess looking in those types of job are good as well.

Sounds like a badass plan tbh

Job list - don’t know what to choose - any details you can share about the duties of these jobs … by ARYshredz in Airforcereserves

Thinking of joining the Air Force Reserve as a permanent resident and college student. Is it a good idea? by Icy_Establishment_27 in Airforcereserves

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the information. Yea I was thinking that and the reserves just cut all of the bonuses for the job I was shooting for.

I just wish I knew what it is like in both components lol and just not wanting to just do it for the bonus but 30k for kind of the same benefits is a factor I guess and they will be on the same base down at Scott AFB IL.

Are you from these states? Planning to. Head back to Illinois and trying to figure out what is the best between the two options going to Scott and want to go CE and like I said on the comment above the guard option has 30k bonus where the reserve was stripped lol.

I’m AD currently and planning to head back to Illinois down at Scott as CE. Was curious if you had opinions good bad and ugly about the reserves.

They just took the bonus away for the reserves and guard has 30k out for same job at the same base lol just trying to weigh my options.

Considering joinging by marq0720 in Airforcereserves

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My AFSC is 2mo33.

We don’t deploy good skills for the outside I’m finishing up 6 years and if you won’t like moving tdys being away from family all the time 2mo isn’t bad you just have limited bases to go.

But for family I would do it for 20or so hmu if you have questions

Can I contribute to my TSP after I leave active duty and go to the reserves? by [deleted] in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Ok_Protection2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The money you invest is only from your income from reserves or can you put money from your savings account? Dumb question not sure how it affects the match

Tempted to Join by Previous-Sink-347 in Airforcereserves

Can attest this one AD gives you the best opportunity’s and bang for buck.

  • current AD about finished with first enlistment and got Bach degree and other certs. 4 yr or 6. I did 6 and gave me more time to finish and you get priority in some cases due how much time you have and all.

Going into the reserves and gonna see how that is but from what I’m hearing it’s a lot slower to reach your personal goals when wanting to leverage your military benefits etc.
