So "Sweet I'm SOF", who are you to dictate when someone should take leave? Have you ever had to tell someone they couldn't take leave or call them back from leave or had leave cancelled on you? I have had to do all three. I'm not sure if you realize this but every flying squadron I've ever been in or stepped foot in has had a 10% rule. No more than 10% of folks could be on leave at any one time. And there are plenty of times that number drops significantly. All the way to zero. I would be happy if the support side of the AF would leave 1 person at the desk during training hours, PT time, official functions, or whatever. Shutting the doors any time between 0730-1630 is unsat. The flying and MX squadrons don't do it ever, even when somebody takes leave on Friday. I can't count on one finger the number of missions my squadrons have had to cancel because of leave.
I may be mistaken but you still haven't stated your afsc, qual, airframe, E or O, etc.
I fly heavies, have been an evaluator, I was a SOF and a SUP at SUPT for a few years (also spent time in the container), taught SUPT in the T-37 and T-6, and am now flying a desk for the next 2.69 years. I've written a ton of OPRs, EPRs, civilian appraisals (GS and NSPS), award packages (that actually won), LORs, LOEs, PRFs, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.
Put up or shut up!
Buenos
PS I can't believe I actually let this asshole get to me. Must of been a long week at work. Maybe I'll take Friday off.
Edit for spelling and to add that MX doesn't shut down either.
