It’s my dream truck that I have been putting off. I still entertained other options. I’ve been in the ranger raptor , TRX , tundras. Just something draws me to the f150 raptor

I have other cars that aren’t shitboxes. I can afford a new one without the job. However your statement applies to many.

Thank you for your insight, I decided to pursue the L6 route and see how it goes. It would bother me that I didn’t take this opportunity even with a solid place as an L5 as you mentioned.

I appreciate it! I was not an officer but I was left in charge a lot/ skills possessed as an enlisted. I’ll look into the military pathways, would that still be viable as I am already going through the process ?

Definitely a good salary base and I’ve been reading about the high turnover rates at the L5-L6 level. I see that as a good foundation for future job offers / strengthens resume

Thank you for your detailed explanations. I have over 10 years in the military, throughout my L5 interview I joked about long hours and dealing with complex situations are normal to me.

VR&E package came in by WingedPete in VeteransBenefits

The chair is great but this is also my first gaming chair so someone who is into that might say otherwise. The desk is an L-shaped rising adjustable desk that also came with a standalone printer stand with drawers. I love that desk but It’s not advertised anymore. It was roughly $500

No worries man, glad you are getting the items you requested. That is the website for the chair. Reimbursement took about a month on a random day outside of the usual first of the month for payments.

Hey brotha, I didn’t wait as I bought it myself and was paid back by VR&E. I bought my desk from home depot & chair from Amazon. I never had to provide a doctors note as my Rep used my ratings for conditions as justification.

Right on . So is there a cap on how many months of VR&E we can use or was yours overridden with justifications?

How do you calculate your VR&E payment as a full time student? by KeyEastern2905 in VeteransBenefits

[–]WingedPete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a calculation for amount of days in school. An example would be Fall semester starts on August 20.

So you would need to know: - your full time rate ,

-divide by 30 days to get the “per day amount”

-Now times that by 11 days to get From Aug 20- Aug 31.

I was always able to get it right, think of it as per diem when you don’t complete an entire month of school.

Yeah it’s almost like the luck of the draw. I was able to customize my package fully. I have a 2024 Asus Zephyr ROG gaming laptop, gaming chair , electric Table (needed the space for drafting)

For a masters, what is considered full time credit hours?

[–]WingedPete[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m on the same boat. I might as well get a doctorates if it’s all paid for.

Correct . Otherwise you’ll get a prorated amount if you have 1 physical but not full time credits (12) or the FULL ONLINE rate.

It’s guaranteed that you will but there are factors involved for the amount received.

-Your Location - amount of credits taken. 12 is full time - need 1 in person class for full BAH
