  1. Bragging. You and Pawnman should just get room and leave the rest of us out if it. Plenty of us as an O-4 DO in a flying squadron right now. You’re definitely not “special” or “hand-picked”
  2. Mentored to be like the current crop of yes men with a additional learning experience in how ass backwards leadership priorities really are....
  3. All too little and far too late.
  4. Yup, it’ll be the O-4 that completed his ACSC and took the bonus. The “Real Go Getter.”
  5. This belongs in the “What’s Wrong” thread. Yet again, another great reason to steer clear of ACSC so you’re not tagged for PowerPoint deployments as a “leader”....
  6. Navs will run the AD AF in a few years... most pilots worth their salt that didn’t fall for the bonus will be out.... you’ll be just fine. I mean, you got all the containers filled.
  7. The exact reason I got my masters (for free with TA) was for my resume outside the AF.... sounds like that was at least a good move.
  8. Choosing to skip ACSC online is not due to laziness... Its proving that it’s completely worthless. Just like you said, all it takes is formatting of a paper (or marking answer “c” / “too long to be wrong”) to pass. Again validation what a waste of time/money/resources the course truly is.
  9. Using a ballwash online course to determine who gets the nod for promotion is a perfect representation of what’s broken. That’s the point. Not complaint. That said, if you’re a bonus takier, prior E locked to 20, or a non pilot I understand greasing the skids to get that pay bump.
  10. Are you prior E or non pilot?
  11. ACSC is useless. Good for you. I had the same conversation prior to my PRF being submitted. Also sent up with a P.
  12. If you’re rated, pass you PHA and still look ok in uniform, you’re good. Questions?
  13. Further evidence how useless it is....
  14. Sounds like some hyper intelligent people with fantastic resumes. I wonder where they stack “ACSC on correspondence” on the list of accomplishment?
  15. AKA: Guaranteed Lt Col promotion?
  16. Reading this thread surprises me that this many people want/care to attend school.....
  17. The amount doesn’t matter. Not when it is still connected to a longer contract for indentured servitude.
  18. At least you only have 9 more years of this BS..... I mean until you’ll likely be able to palace chase.
  19. “Easiest thing to fly” .... do you mean ride around in?
  20. And pay the remaining bonus back? While finding a new job?
  21. I hope you guys get promoted! But. (Devils Advocate) You committed to 20 as a major by taking the bonus. Do you think the bean counters want you to promote? Plenty of O-4’s taking over as DO nowadays. No reason to hand out more money when you already took a little extra and signed a contract....
  22. Are you a pilot?
  23. As long as online BS drops out of the selection criteria its a SMALL win.
  24. How it should be... If the boss wants a guy to be a CC then offer an in res. Min running an online course just to get a promotion/show you care/being a company man clearly falls under “what’s wrong with the AF”
  25. You’re assuming that 10 years will still be the commitment huh?
