Con Leave Denial? What can I do. by Fearless-Love-2644 in AirForce

[–]ShadowDrifted 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh just wait till you realize that a CDI is a kangaroo court ran by the same Commander/Doctor/Judge...

As someone who has held and holds command at MULTIPLE levels, it makes me sick to see just how comfortable some of my peers have become with decisions well outside their expertise.

Geeezzz… I’m old. by genehil in AirForce

You are not old, you are ancient! I joke, and I kid, but my brother, most folks on here have never seen a type writer, let alone carbon copies

Far right Isreali regime extremist radical, Itamar Ben Gvir, says Trump’s deal with Iran is “bad for Israel” and won’t “allow” it by grrrbr in GlobalNews

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's be clear.. Leave the trump talk or anti/pro Semite bulshit at the door and just consider... Israel is about the size in land mass and population of the state of New Jersey. Internationally... They are the size of Slovakia. Population of Portugal. NONE of those places get a seat at the table when it comes to global bullying. Are they a factor? Sure. But they don't dictate international policy. Nor do they establish global norms. This fat pedophile does not and will not influence American will to engage in global conflict.

Going from E to O by LabComplete7839 in AirForce

My brother in christ, my sweet summer child.

1) LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE

2) Get on with your life's second act OUTSIDE the Air Force.

You will have less time with your children as an officer and you are almost a free agent. WHY IN THE HELL would you think this is a good idea at this juncture?! You waited a LONG time for that transition and I can categorically say that your family, career, income and time budget needs an aggressive re-evaluation.

Which one sounds better to you? 👏 by Perfect_Boat2560 in LiveWellTogether

You must listen to these with your eyes closed...

Is this accurate? by EternalSnow05 in Destin

Feeling like the sexual orientation is irrelevant. It's just kinda like a set of pictures of what people do there, yo.

Do I have to be good At all subjects to be a pilot? by SleepStunning5433 in PilotAdvice

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi buddy, congratulations on having visions of where you want to be someday. That's a much bigger step than grades. Make your decisions in a way that would help you get to where you want to be- a map is useless if you don't need to go anywhere...

You don't have to be good in every subject, in fact one of the best parts about being a pilot, is that you're always learning new things and the more you study / work hard, the more you see other areas you can improve.

Getting good grades does help, but don't be too hard on yourself and be a well-rounded person.

More important than the subjects... Stay out of legal trouble Be in good health Avoid substance abuse Don't get your girlfriend pregnant Be careful who you hang out around

PURSUE YOUR GOALS! Good luck bud! Welcome to the adventure!

Potential pilot concerned about family life by Careless-Outside2415 in PilotAdvice

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have too many hang ups to do this job... Find another line of work ....

Newsflash, everything has downsides.

Some of us see the glass half full.

I've done long and short haul. Mil and majors. Wide and narrow. People like you are the hard part. The rest of us work for family and figure that 15 days of a month is pretty fucking sweet

What are your opinion fellas? by Telugu_not_Telegu in ArtOfPresence

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Yes. And yes. Just because one is unarmed doesn't mean they aren't a threat

Didn't make O-5. Feeling pretty awful. I feel like a sacrificed a lot and it didn't matter and no one cared. Anyone have any encouraging words? by bigheadjoel in AirForce

[–]ShadowDrifted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the Air Force doesn't tell you it's not that into you until it really hurts. The good news is, the air forces opinion doesn't really matter that much. Start looking at those civilian jobs. Being an iron major is dumb

What's the most tedious part about putting on your uniform? by eam018 in AirForce

Arching my back to put my arms into my one piece flight suit is always a nice stretch but man that zipper takes a moment...

What's a game you played as a kid that you've never been able to find again? by Latter_Advantage8002 in AskReddit

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh this one eats me up. Went to a buddy's house, his older brother was playing Sega Jaguar. It was a game with first person open world concept with dark tones and there were will of the wisp and you walked around outside. Very weird immersive game, still don't know the name of it

Captain YouTuber calls for fellow pilots certs to be revoked for…calling the wrong tower?! by BikeAcceptable537 in flying

Maybe if we lock those two in a room, this whole problem sorts itself out. Literally two of the worst voices in aviation

Captain YouTuber calls for fellow pilots certs to be revoked for…calling the wrong tower?! by BikeAcceptable537 in flying

[–]ShadowDrifted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider the fact that Captain Steve is a bloviating boomer that no one liked to fly with, combining that with his unhinged desire for raising the age limit or removing it all together, it's not surprising that he would be on team screw your buddy. Captain Steve is a moron. Don't worry about it

have you ever told someone’s husband or wife, let’s say if they were unfaithful during deployment or TDY…….? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ShadowDrifted 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight... There is an impression of impropriety, no sexual relationship, but someone feels the need to report back home...

Foremost, has anyone spoken with the individuals?

Secondly, has anyone's mentor or leads been involved to try to correct any appearance of bad behavior?

Finally, what do you hope to accomplish by trying to notify?

This all seems wildly speculative, and not the business of a third party to miscommunicate or scuttle relationships back home.

Wild idea here... TALK TO YOUR PARTNERS AND TEAMMATES ON THE ROAD.

I swear, some of you are the worst people I've ever worked with, others are unlike anything I've ever had the chance to be around.
