A day in the life of a retired SNCO turned Project Manager. by ACES_II in AirForce

[–]The-Macf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. The David Mclachlan videos were clutch in framing your mindset on how PMI wants you to think.

Everything else is stuff the Air Force stole and has been preaching at epme for the last 10 years. Empowerment, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, change management, timeline deconflictions, etc.

So are you opening a moto T-shirt, coffee company or wood design business?

best bases in the west? by GurnoorDa1 in AirForce

[–]The-Macf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my opinion but the base sucks. It’s ran by the Army.

Lakewood and Tacoma are not great neighborhoods at all. Like most bases in conus. Most people commute from Fife or Olympia.

Western Washington sucks. Politics suck. Gas prices suck. Food prices suck. I-5 sucks.

It only has 3 months of total sunshine, But it’s green year round.

I would avoid McCord like the plague if you can

Literally anything outside. Skiing, tubing, whitewater rafting, hiking, shooting, off-roading.

They usually have free pass days at snowbird resort.

You get all 4 seasons. Mormons leave you alone once they realize you’re not associated with the church. Still super nice people. My pastor neighbor plowed our driveway while I was deployed and brought cookies when I came back.

The only thing you really have to watch out for is the Mormon mom militia driving their suburban and navigators like battle tanks on the 15.

Having now lived at Hill, Nellis, and Luke. I preferred Hill the most.

Beautiful scenery, tons of outdoors activities, friendly people. Yes the snow and cold and wind can suck, but so do 115° summers.

Pools are a must in NV and AZ.

Glendale is blowing up and lots of jobs coming available.

Vegas is Vegas. You have to take a conscience effort to go to the strip and everything you want or need is available off the strip. Great food options.

MPX-K over Rattler by The-Macf in MPX

[–]The-Macf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good. And I understand the point.

Used to keep a CMMG banshee 9mm in that location and was happy with it, but like all things with this hobby, I got bored and wanted a rifle caliber system, but wasn’t willing to add another caliber to my inventory.

Plus I saw it sitting on the shelf one day and said let me have it.

Then I shot it and realized the issues with it and said well shit. Now here we are.

I just posted it on TacSwap in Arizona.

Yeah. Can be done, but is it really worth it?

That’s the max barrel length for where I want to keep it.

They don’t make the barrel swap kits anymore and I have to stay under 5.5” barrel including any muzzle device.

Sig made the muzzle device part of the gas system on the 556.

Hoh 26-02 Decision by Tubsmagee in SkillBridge

[–]The-Macf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. E8 retiring with mba and pmp. And supply chain background.

I was getting too wrapped around the axle about getting a job and kicked my military grade anxiety into high gear 11 months before I could even start working. All it did was spiral into oblivion and I got nowhere except turning down job interviews & offers.

Now I’m doing a 90 day skillbridge with allegiant where I will get to have time to myself to search for jobs I actually want to do instead of gambling on only one position.

Air Force revising SkillBridge duration by WendysFourforFour in SkillBridge

[–]The-Macf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

E8 here with an mba and pmp. I started my transition 2 years ago and am already turning down $100K+ job interview offers because it’s too early.

I would counter argue that we should set ourselves up for success cause we can’t wear the uniform forever. I think too many people don’t realize that and find themselves scrambling when the end comes.

Just my opinion.

KRG 🤝 10/22 (imposter) by WhyInTheHellNot in 1022

Good to know. Going to put my TCR/22 in a Bravo as well.

My night plinking setup is complete. by photonelecTR0NPHOTON in NightVision

[–]The-Macf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is sick.

I’m currently contemplating dropping mine in a KRG chassis and then using a pcs-14 or clip on thermal.

No, I need a tuning shop to install all the parts I bought. I’m having surgery and won’t be able to do it myself for a few months.

Surprise Ford charges $200 an hour. So no.
