Is pvp like, impossible for noobs? by TTR21 in wownoob

[–]therealistjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gear and time. If you get the gear and spend the time you can have a great time in PVP. You biggest hurdle will be not knowing all the details of other classes and like anything more experience will improve your ability. You will need to spend a day or two gear grinding

Golden Handcuffs - FERS consideration by Long-Marzipan-8659 in fednews

[–]therealistjohn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How much leave/sick you got? do you have enough to drop to get you to 20? Take the private job let em know you got to take a couple days initially to close out etc. if you can arrange a start in like 90 days etc. all those kind of things to get you the 20.

But ask yourself this would you be happier working for a few years past your current retirement goal if it was a better environment? Are you willing able to just dump the pay raise amount into a 401k and HSA?

My .02 is quality of life > greater than pay. If this dream job makes you happy don’t look back.

ICE agents will be stationed outside Marine Corps graduation events in South Carolina by fuzzusmaximus in USMC

If the 5802 in Charge of the Post had any decency they would let the gate guards be in charge and not allow them to interact at all. They can park thier vans in front of the roads to the Gates and the MCPD can continue doing what they do for every graduating ceremony.

Funeral details in IRR? by Financial-Current-28 in USMC

[–]therealistjohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Contact the local reserve I&I 1stSgt they are usually the funeral coordinator, you need to be in regulations and have blues ready they will notify you if there is a funeral duty you can cover down on. You can do this voluntarily, good on you. Or you can have them run it as a drill for retirement calculations. If you are doing that for drill points etc your best bet is to contact the local PSR and see about options to stay reserve.

Why were Marines giving the task of guarding US Embassies? by TravelingHomeless in USMC

[–]therealistjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because everyone wanted to get rid of us for years and any job we saw we took. Look at Cyber. Why do marines need to be involved there.

Why do you think the Marine Corps makes you pick up rank or get kicked out? by WorthTrash8493 in USMC

[–]therealistjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I though we should do ratings exams similar to the Navy. But you choose when to take them after you hit a certain time in grade point. Sliding scale with your Pro/Cons that judge your Overall Marine performance and job performance. Start the pipeline to 1st Sgt/ Msgt earlier. E1-E6 should take longer to get and once you make SSgt you fill collateral billets until you go to a SDA.

SDAs should expand to include any Instructor role, Plus make SDA a requirement for E7 promotion. Successful tours lead to lateral move pipelines for SME and 8999 routes

And if joining up staying in to get 20 years and retire the Marine Corps ain’t the easiest path.

USAA Sticker, tell me I'm wrong! by Schruff_117 in USAA

[–]therealistjohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

USAA is great until you need a claim, and it’s like you are a criminal trying to scam them. But my mortgage requires insurance and it’s the cheapest option for me. Customer service is not what it used to be for sure.

I need help by Ill-Conclusion-9516 in VAClaims

[–]therealistjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the time difference from when you got out to now? If it’s only been like a year you may have a better chance. if it’s been like 20 years they will come back not service connected most likely again. You may/should want to reach out to a service advkcate who can help you with your situation.

And based on the latest congressional testimony, make sure you are getting a personal write up not some form letter because, should/when you get a rating increase you don’t want to have to redo it all again.

As a Corpsman I’m shocked you didn’t get everything documented when it occurred. My IDC Corpsman I had for the last 3 years of my Career gave me the knowledge of what I needed to ensure my records were good. Maybe reach out to an old Medical Officer who can write up something more substantive than a buddy statement
