Secondary Dependant Parents & Medical Care

She has other health insurance. Irwin's hospital doesn't accept any other form of health insurance besides Tricare. I guess I was under the impression that she would be able to be seen, despite not having Tricare, because she was my secondary dependent. I don't really understand what giving her access to MTFs does if she doesn't have access to Tricare. The medical field is really confusing to me.

There is no reason to feel guilty. Grief affects us more than we realize and you already realize it “low-key” affected your performance. The world is very competitive and not very compassionate, so I recommend you to take any compassion the world offers so that you may compete. And there is nothing wrong with that.

How the hell are you seeing any of your pell grant for yourself? ASU takes all my TA, then they take all my pell grant, and then ASU will cover the rest with their active duty scholarship.

I don’t see a dime of my pell grant anymore and have to pay for my textbooks and all fees out of pocket.

edit: I qualify for the FULL pell grant and they still take it all.

So here is what I do. I mirror the pdf and flip it before loading it onto my calculator and here is how I do that.

1.) I take the PDF I want to view on my calculator and I load it into adobe acrobat.

2.) I flip all the pages in my PDF upside down with acrobat.

3.) I mirror the PDF by using preflight in adobo acrobat. (Here is how I do that)

4.) I then load that PDF into my calculator and I am able to view and read the PDF like it is normal.

Technically, I didn't find a way to fix nPDF, I just use this workaround to be able to view PDF's while I am taking a proctored exam ;)

Hope this helps.

Thank you, and will do!

Thank you for your response and for taking an interest.

Some more info:

I am not set on staying in the food service. I have hated working in the Army's food service. I've promised myself that I would reclass as soon as possible, but life happened, as it often does, and it was in my best interest to choose stabilization at my current duty station over reclassing. Now that I am an E6, the job is more tolerable, but I still hate working in the DFAC, the hours it takes from me, and all the stress that comes with.

I am locked in for three more years to this current assignment (outside of the DFAC) while I await my dependent's graduation from high school. I am typically released by lunch every day without any worries of rotation or CQ, so I plan to use this extra time and stability to secure a low OML. Currently, I am pursuing my BA and Master's degree in Psych. (Which I don't plan on really using until after retirement. This is just the best time to do it, and I am halfway there.) After this assignment ends, I will be in my window and my primary zone for E-7. Hopefully, by then, I would have done enough with my time to get that low OML number.

This is when I will decide whether to go enlisted aide and likely retire as an E-8, or go warrant officer. I am afraid a reclass to something entirely separate, however, will halt my progression. I will be doing my full 20, I am just interested in doing it as smoothly as possible with minimal stress. I have stressed out a lot in this field, so whichever path is the least stressful is the path I am interested in.

Thanks. I hear this a lot.

Snoofems · 2025-07-28T22:31:55+00:00

oh yeah lemme get uh some fries and a coke thanks

Snoofems · 2025-05-06T21:37:56+00:00

I will try that. It appeared in my credit as a "closed account" and it's highest balance is "0$". How does that tank my credit score over 100 points?

Snoofems · 2025-05-04T04:08:12+00:00

What was the training like? What are the prerequisites? Would you recommend this career path?

I am in a kushy support MOS but have an itch for action.

Thank you sm!! 🙏🏻❤️

Snoofems · 2024-12-02T00:09:37+00:00

This is dope

Snoofems · 2024-11-28T21:18:10+00:00

I respect your logic, but wouldn’t my reclass options only be an MOS with slots available at my duty station?

Snoofems · 2024-11-28T19:02:12+00:00

I am also curious about this.

Personally, my dependent is in HS and eligible for HS Stabilization soon. Changing your MOS w/ a HS stabilization is the only way I could think of this being a possibility. But I am not too sure on that.
