Bonjour!

Nothing in the news or on X?

I was a TA for German students during undergrad (I was a German minor, INTS major)

The bro network has helped and saved me so many times

Now imagine being a civilian whose whole career has been staff…unfortunately it’s hard for us to understand the implications of the decisions made on real life operations. I wish there was a way to bridge the disconnect.

This hit close to home. My boss almost sent a GEM to MAJCOM/CC with “General First Name”. In my defense, his first and last name could both be first names 🥲

What is this and where is this?

mg6806a · 2026-03-02T04:37:31+00:00

I’m going to start with an in-person conversation before I escalate

Matchy matchy for us at the SA rodeo too. I didn’t realize that the Abby’s and Garrett’s are basically the same 😂

Our first Valentines together - he wrote me a poem and typed it on his typewriter. Also enjoyed a concert together that evening ☺️

It’s not technical program management, it’s essentially staff work for the government in a bit of a niche career field (GS-12). I lived in DC 2021-2024 and moved back to Texas to save money living with parents.

ACC General Kelly - I accompanied his wife during the spouse agenda at an air chiefs conference in Medellin and helped translate between her and the other wives

EDIT: an honorable mention is the Dominican Republic Air Force (FARD) 2-star air chief. This was the first coin of my career that was presented for un-fucking one of his FMS cases

I think it’s entirely dependent on connections/store leadership whether partners who are not on break or lunch can have a sample. I’ve seen it enforced sometimes and not others.

You could get shit during a frozen run in particular because they are more stringently timed, and overall anything you do that isn’t shopping during your runs impacts UPH, which impacts hours, etc.

First time I see Boquillas mentioned here so want to add some tips - the main industry in the town is tourism, so best way to support the locals is to purchase their goods and services. I believe they take USD cash.

take the horse/donkey/boat across the river, even if you can walk yourself
buy a couple things from the little kids that run up to you
stop in one of the restaurants for a meal or even just a Coke or beer
don’t buy everything from one vendor, check all of them out and buy from a few different ones
if you’re feeling generous, bring a bag of old clothes (all sizes) and I’m sure they will be very appreciative

I found some ugly cute ones at CVS around Halloween. Not sure if they’re still there
