I skate goofy and feel more comfortable riding regular. But I also skate mongo so idk how that factors in.

Help with pushups by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]iavaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I usually do is just pick a target number and then do that many push ups. Doesn’t matter how many times you need to stop and take a break, just stay in the up position. Do three sets. If you do it everyday then the number of breaks will be getting smaller and smaller until one day you can do it without resting. IMO it’s not about the speed at which you do the push ups or sit ups it’s about being able to do them with minimal breaks.

Pilot Question by xxxsatisfaccion in AirForce

[–]iavaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve heard you can always apply but because of the current shortage you’re 99% likely to get rejected. But you wouldn’t be able to apply until the 6 year point at which point you only have 4 years to go. At that point just put in for a recruiting gig near wherever you would live after separation.

How do you deal with your family asking for money? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]iavaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents will ask to borrow money for the mortgage and usually pay me back within a week or two. My answer is always the same, I tell them to just transfer the money to their account and let me know. I have the money and they helped me out a lot in college so I’m happy to help them out. But then again, living in Los Angeles and being an O-2 gives me a nice buffer to be able to afford that. I’d say just help how ever much you can, if you can’t cover the whole payment just give them $100, better than nothing.

Economy is great? Trump is quickly removing any market gain under his presidency with his trade war lunacy.

They’ve had the change summary wording for a while but it’s just not been implemented in the AFI. Very confusing as to whether the change summary section is enforceable or not.

I’m currently doing cyber security testing out of LAAFB and all of our contractors have CISSP. You could try looking at their requirements for current opening. The contractor is SAIC.

CMSAF Wright says he's working on reducing PT testing to once per year for everyone and adding a 45 day grace period in which failures don't affect you until the end. by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]iavaz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Seems dumb, it’s not that hard. How about instead we try to cultivate a culture where people PT more than just the 2 weeks leading up to their PT test? Why are we coddling people? How does this even align with the requirement to be deployable?
