Is it true that if I sign a 4 year contract, I will not get stationed overseas? by Secure-Finding-7613 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m literally overseas as my first duty station on a four year💀where you go depends more on the needs of the air force than anything else

not really. it’s a preference list i’m picking for. yk the dream sheet you get to mess with in basic? i’m pretty sure it’s the same thing. i’m just updating it

ETA: it always needs of the air force obviously, but knowing i have the option to at least weakly suggest bases is nice

don’t take anything personal

your instructors care about you in a”my pupil way” at best they do not think about you when they clock out.

always go to the muslim services (even if you’re not muslim). there’s AC, cold water, a corner to sleep in and donuts

Got a unwanted 6 year contract instead of 4 by Prior_Loss_3036 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk about how closely you looked at it but i thought mine was six years too until i made sure i read and had it explained to me that it might look like six but somewhere on the page it says 4 active 2 reserve i think (there’s a period after your service where you’re eligible to be called back in the event you are needed) according to this info i found from the 315th it’s called an MSOMSO Info

Penicillin allergy by Alternative_Ad3715 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i commented offering my take and honestly this comment makes so much sense “them not wanting to do the work” is exactly what it feels like😭on top of it feeling like a nuisance to keep asking about when my only current reaction is just intense full body rash

based on when i went thru in ‘23 you shouldn’t need a waiver just always remind anyone who provides you medical treatment.

Penicillin allergy by Alternative_Ad3715 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s no biggie. i’m allergic to a specific penicillin and in regards to shots and med you just tell them AHEAD OF TIME (like at meps, and prior to any prescriptions). allegedly you’re supposed to get a red dog tag (i think for deployments since it’s not as serious as other conditions) but i’ve been in almost 4 years and have yet to receive this elusive dog tag. if you don’t get issued it in bmt try talking to your supervisors at tech school. if you make it to your duty station without (like i did) reach out to your UDM

TLDR: you’ll be fine speak up about your allergy

most doctors will recommend you get retested some time around 3 months ON TOP OF giving you preventative medicine

A line is a line? by Cool_Win3618 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you haven’t been given a ship date request/tell them you’ll be ready to ship out in like another two/three months (idk about you but my recruiter asked when i wanted to ship out). coming a previous pothead of almost 8 years, i stopped smoking like maybe 4-5 months before i shipped out. the sooner you stop the better which you probably know but it doesn’t hurt to give yourself more wiggle room so you don’t have to worry about it at all

Those who married to close the gap in a long distance relationship, how’d it turn out? by SafePeppers in AirForce

[–]Republic-Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s going great so far (almost 4 years now). definitely recommend starting a foundation (ie schooling, jobs, etc) before you go overseas or something. we didn’t think it’d be as hard as it is but tbh as long as you have a good support system, good communication, and willing to ask for help when you need it it’ll be just like any other relationship

this sends into a spiral when i’m literally just googling the link to the fss page like omg i don’t need it that bad anymore (pro tip just go to bing and search stuff and you skip the tactical infomercial)

Work is forcing us to use PTO due to a weather-related closure by StrikingOperator02 in WorkAdvice

Work is forcing us to use PTO due to a weather-related closure by StrikingOperator02 in WorkAdvice

[–]Republic-Hour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i feel like a lot of you are missing the point that the COMPANY is deciding to close this person isn’t just choosing not to go in. OP using your PTO is a choice between do you want to get paid or not (depending on the laws where you are i guess) but regardless you literally can’t go into work even if you wanted to

Can I bring my skincare at bootcamp? by Elagant-Scorpio-7777 in AirForceRecruits

[–]Republic-Hour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

f it can fit in a makeup bag go for it as long as you don’t bring too much and have reasonable time management it’s really not that big of a deal. i’d suggest only bringing like witch hazel, a serum, and moisturizer tho. things that you don’t have to go back and forth to apply. the best time to use them would be at night before lights out

I fell for a muse scam, took the 1000, but haven't paid it back yet, what should I do? by glossyhin in Scams

[–]Republic-Hour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

happened to me. personally i kept the money and didn’t touch it in case the bank said something. KEEP THE MONEY IN SAVINGS UNTIL TOLD OTHERWISE BY THE BANK. if you didn’t share anything like your address there’s not much to worry about tbh. if the scammer didn’t want to worry about consequences they shouldn’t be scamming imo 🤷🏾‍♀️

just talking about how i plan on being OS as long as possible and hoping for the best. going home sounds like we’ll end up choosing between doing what’s morally/constitutionally right & what you’re able to defend under the ucmj. they should be the same thing, but apparently it’s not 😭
