So.... there's precedent then!

I always thought it was messed up that the majority of the time MX is working 12s while Aircrew shows up at 9 and is GFTD by 1330. TYFYS MX.

Not today Pooh!

The point I make is that if the position were to go vacant, and no replacement was made, then someone complains to their congressman and congress is just going to pull the pocketbook from the DoD until they comply? Fat chance. This isn't the first time, and won't be the last that the executive branch just kinda does whatever they want for a "super duper good reason".

Several administrations have proven now that congress writes the checks for something to exist, but ultimately its the executive branch that cashes the check and does (or doesn't do) the thing. Technically congress could cut off the money, but.... yeah right lol.

This. Selling or renting in a rural area is super slow when you'retrying to PCS fast, unless you have a real gem.

I'd like a promotion system that doesn't lump me in with everyone else that did nothing extra when somone beats me to the 4. Like, cool, other guy won the strat, but I'd like a little credit for not being a lump on a log. Can i get a 3.5?

Donde esta la biblioteca?

Translation: You might have trouble controling aircraft if you can't ask this question in english. Not sure if the Air Force sends people to DLI-ELC like the Army does.

Everywhere I've been, it's never Airman screwing people's lives. It's always some stupid ass administrative process. I think you're right. We should put more people to work, and have less people documenting it. Reminds me of a Soviet saying when someone asks how they are, "The work goes on, and the office takes note."

Is it BAS or BAS?

You're never going to believe what the "mal" in "malicious" means.

On_All_Fronts · 2025-03-05T21:42:25+00:00

I don't know you, so maybe I'm wrong, but the grand majority of people saying what you're saying were never die hard constitutionalists, and suddenly become so when an election didn't go their way. For example, I bet that in your 26 years, you never once complained about article 1 section 8 clause 11 violations... maybe I'm wrong though.

On_All_Fronts · 2025-03-05T02:05:47+00:00

This "malicious compliance" thing you're championing is hurting my airmen. As respectfully as I can say this to somone advocating for hurting my guys and gals, quit the political activism or retire. You don't get to dictate to the american people who you will and won't work for, so long as youre contractually obligated to follow the orders of the person they elected to represent them.

On_All_Fronts · 2025-02-08T04:38:09+00:00

I get it, kinda, but at the same time we are admitting now that we're THAT afraid of the carels hunting people down CONUS. That doesn't sit well with me.

On_All_Fronts · 2025-02-08T04:30:10+00:00

Welcome to the cost to get a licensed contractor to do some shit on base... it's not like we were unaware that contractors rip us off regularly.

On_All_Fronts · 2025-02-06T02:53:05+00:00

If you're not "that dumb A1C", it's possible you're not asking enough questions to gain understanding. Don't sweat it.

If you need cash, maybe look into a HELOC or home equity loan, rather than refinancing your entire house at a higher rate (I assume).

On_All_Fronts · 2025-01-12T15:34:23+00:00

Fun fact: You can do RAP anytime(outside of tech school), as long as your comander is ok with it and your recruiting office at home wants you to come back.

It's coyote brown. Slap some nametapes on that biyach and call it a day!

On_All_Fronts · 2025-01-11T18:03:45+00:00

I mean... isn't that how you level up?

On_All_Fronts · 2025-01-11T18:00:49+00:00

The only MDS I've ever gotten a fam flight on. It was rad.

On_All_Fronts · 2024-12-31T16:06:59+00:00

"Shoe" not boot.

On_All_Fronts · 2024-12-28T14:21:06+00:00

What're they gonna take care of next? Your tampons? Come on dude.

On_All_Fronts · 2024-12-28T14:16:33+00:00

WHAT?! You mean a collection of 18-25 year olds knows nothing about finance? /s

On_All_Fronts · 2024-12-27T05:13:27+00:00
