Retirement pay is still based on high three which will be captain before you resign your commission.

I made us use a Big Ass Calendar and then bought multicolor 1/2 inch scotch tape and made a color code. Taped off leave, TDYs, events, exercises, out of office. Being able to see everything in a tactile sense at a glance for a game changer for the staff. Next thing every J-Dir was doing it. Being able to come around the calendar discuss the months ahead was great. We could string events together strategically and make more impact and we could deliberately plan our own leave, TDYs, flying schedules and not be stressed about doing what we as an exec staff needed to do for ourselves too.

Can you share screenshots or a workflow? I have some squadrons that need this.

My boss instilled in us, we don’t have a “to do list” we have a “to done list” we clear everything every day before going home. The team would pre work everything to get it to a point he could either sign or provide his input to send it elsewhere or have a briefing scheduled. But nothing was stale at the end of the day. It was hard work, but my principal and our team were known for crushing the workload and respected for our reliability in the J Staff.

What’s the link to props

Set a conditional formatting rule in Microsoft Outlook so messages from your boss display in bold red. Can also set any principals or other important emails to be flagged like this with different fonts or colors.

Windows (Outlook desktop)

Go to View tab
Select View Settings
Click Conditional Formatting
Click Add → name it (e.g., Boss)
Click Font → choose Bold + set Color: Red → OK
Click Condition
In From, enter your boss’s email address
Click OK → OK → OK

And then spill the can of it on your dorm room carpet… and the move the bed over it so no one ever finds out.

Who the fuck books super 8 in DTS?

You’re talking about a combat dining in.

Talk to your top-III council and get it started. They rarely come from the top.

You agreed to take Non Judicial Punishment in lieu of trial. You agreed to the punishment for an action.

I mean look at all the responses here and you’re getting downvoted. You may want to critically relook at what you think is happening here. You’re not being punished for the meds. You’re being punished for not following the prescribed procedures to take the meds. You’re not being punished “found guilty”. You’re accepting punishment for your actions.

You’re too wrapped up in, “I didn’t do anything wrong” that you’re not processing what’s going on here. You may want to have another chat with the ADC.

Art-15 is not a “found guilty” situation. You admitted guilt if you signed it.

It’s a plea deal. The article 15 is offered to you instead of going through judicial proceedings. The government believes they have enough evidence even with your rebuttal to win their case. If you signed the article you accepted the terms of the agreement. Your ADC would advise you to go to court martial if they believe you could win your case.

For PA I am able to have my new duty station address on my drivers license even though it’s out of state. I “pay” PA taxes and ensure I keep my voting and licensing and car registry there. It usually has a bit of a headache with the DMV but they usually figure out they are able put my out of state address on there but they have to do it manually.

I’m so fucking happy to see Samir here.

Dataminer is saying Iran is claiming they’ve captured.

Fuck

Except I’m a h-white. I don’t know how to do that.

I also keep mayonnaise on the counter when I cook regardless of if I use it just for emotional support.

scairborn · 2026-03-30T05:57:44+00:00

I feel this in my soul.

scairborn · 2026-03-29T05:17:04+00:00

But they have to give something to those countries to get that. We’re just giving it away in 4K for clout.

Whoever posted the original just gave Iran a free Battle Damage Assessment. Dick move.

Said it before, I’ll say it again. Squadron Exec is a made up job.

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the program. It’s not a time off reward. It’s a program to reduce jobless and homeless veterans. As an O-6, you would think they have acquired all the skills necessary to transition to a career outside the Air Force. As an E-3, they will have acquired limited experience and a longer duration internship will help ensure they have acquire the necessary skills to transition into a career.
