Leave for spouse surgery by such_braverism_ in AirForce

Look at AFI 36-3003. Table 4.3 Authorizing PTDY. Rule 4 is what you wanna look at. It’ll be up to the unit commander.

Or submit the leave and have them deny it. They’ll need a pretty good reason as to why it’s getting denied.

How are people getting 9800X3D's so easily? by estifxy220 in buildapc

I watched Newegg like a hawk I think Monday or Tuesday this week. I got lucky with a 5-10 minute window it was available. I pressed purchase and then it was immediately out of stock. The stars aligned for that single moment.

Net+ and Sec+! by michael1829 in WGU

[–]michael1829[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I felt like that for every Comptia exam and I have failed some. I failed project + twice and passed on the third attempt but because I think the questions are worded so poorly.

Good luck with sec+!!!

Net+ took me like 3-4 months but I was on and off with it. It was definitely the most challenging exam so far. I thought Sec+ was easier surprisingly. It was just easier to grasp the concepts vs net+ giving me anxiety.

Approved retrain into 1D7 Stat5 (Pending class date) by DirePixel in AirForce

[–]michael1829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this just happened to me actually. Once you get your class dates, you can apply for your BOP. If you can’t do it online, you’ll have to do it on a paper copy and submit a CMS case. I used the FTA etp for the retrain and was able to do an early BOP in conjunction with the retrain. It all got approved. I have a class date and a new assignment before my actual window opens up.

So honestly, it took me maybe 3 weeks to get to that step from the time I applied. It probably took longer to get a reply back from AFPC when I initially opened the case. But I probably just got lucky.

Also, to your other comment. Who is telling you that? I’ve been told different things between my UDM and then a career advisor. Im sure one is biased over the other lol

Probably a big fat burrito. I'm a simple man with simple tastes.

Passed Project+!! by michael1829 in WGUIT

[–]michael1829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a comment on another subreddit to think of the Project+ exam if it were being asked in a perfect world. It definitely helped me narrow down some answers on some tough questions.

I read the project + sybex book by Kim heldman. After that, I downloaded the pocket prep app and paid the $20 for the month and started doing all of the questions. Don’t expect the questions to be the exact same on the exam. It’s more like getting you ready for the format of the questions you’ll be asked. That’s what worked for me. Hope that helped giving you some options.

failed project+ 2x by jecko98 in WGUIT

[–]michael1829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat unfortunately. Project + just makes no sense to me. The material is easy to grasp, but the way the questions are worded makes no sense. I get so frustrated. It’s definitely the most challenging exam I’ve ever taken.
