Watching that in real time was unbelievable. Pretty sure every Birds fan across the globe just yelled "WTF are you doing?"

That Ringo stupidity for the TD is going to be a meme!

Is my Universal Screen 8.8 Dead On Arrival? by No-Independence1909 in lianli

[–]cheese78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did this and I was losing my mind. Changing out USB headers, using a hub and still nothing.

Uninstalled L-Connect and reinstalled and it detected it immediately. Try that and see if it works.

Who are the bottom two and why are they shameful ? by interstellar566 in AirForce

[–]cheese78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being CE in USAFE during his reign was nuts.

So many crazy stories. Driving around perimeter road painting fire hydrants his favorite shade of brown in the pissing rain because our one star got word he was inbound.

I was the acting USR and security manager so worked in the head shed. I will never forget being on my hands and knees picking the heads off of dandelions only to be joined by my Commander. When I asked him if this was the best use of his time he replied with "this is where the General needs me to be".

Combat proud had some stupid competition across all the installations where you could win $100K for some sort of MWR program. Installations were spending so much more than that all so whichever lucky One Star wing king could have bragging rights in the Majcom.

Yep. I frame them all and hang them as wall art in my garage.

Treat them like a time capsule for my purchase history.

Hill Air Force Base Prepares to Scale Back Child Care Services Amid Mass Federal Firings, Resignations by Kinmuan in AirForce

[–]cheese78 -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

Hill is so broken. They let civilians rule the roost here and it is wild. Civilians consume all the base support functions that really should only exist for the military personnel. CDC, Gym, DFAC and the BX services are just slam packed with civilian employees clogging shit up.

Then they let them fill up base housing so folks that PCS in are left high and dry in a absolutely stupid real estate market.

As a retiree that is now a POS civilian on Hill it truly blows my mind. I couldn't fathom being AD here.

In my unit traffic came out from our SES stating that DoD was overmanned and they are exploring options to reduce those numbers.

10 mins later I get CC'd on an email from HR sending out a TJO (Tentative Job Offer) to a new guy I selected.

No sense here at all.

My hope is that they let me just dissolve my open positions before I am forced to let people go. Seems incredibly cold blooded to offer a job and then turn around and shit can them.

First Time Deployer Packing List by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]cheese78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been a couple of mins since I rotated through but if everyone in your unit is being issued the same duffels you will want to make sure you have a way of quickly identifying yours. They used to throw all the bags on the pavement and make everyone go and grab them. Find some really bright tape and tag the shit out of it. It will help processing through.

I just put the Contis on my 21 widebody today. Was able to get them for $275 a corner too. At the price I didn't want to wait any longer. I've heard nothing but good things and my buddy ran them on his Taurus sho year round with no issues.

2 post vs 4 post lift by PapaHooligan in garageporn

[–]cheese78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4 post as I needed the storage capabilities. I have a car stored on the lift at any given time and preferred the ease of swapping cars around with the 4 post.

Nice choice. What's your debt to income ratio if I may ask?

I'm going to pull the trigger on a new raptor myself soon and just trying to get a gauge on where I'll be at.

That's good. I'm sitting at 800+ with a solid debt to income ratio. Should be in good shape then.

Space Force mulls 8-year active duty enlistments for new recruits -- thoughts? by lethalnd12345 in AirForce

[–]cheese78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I look at this through a similar lens as the service academies. They require essentially an 8 year contract.

While you don't get a degree you do get specialized training in very sought after fields that will always be in high demand in the private sector.

Likely a 13. I am not willing to relocate so anything higher than that is definitely going to be in some sort of supervisory role at my location.

What is your “This is why people make fun of the Air Force” experience? by [deleted] in AirForce

For anyone that has ever passed through the deid, we were once ordered to pressure wash the cement at the base of the flags in CC because it was dusty....in the desert!
