Some squadrons are pretty tight with their flight doctors. Maybe you are not accustomed to that relationship. At least two enlisted personnel have come to me because their symptoms were being overlooked by doctors due to them being young airmen. I texted our flight doctor and he rolled in on the doctors in the Medical Group to resolve the issues. Someone from intel needed to be cleared for a TDY and the Medical Group was dragging their feet on the paperwork. Texted the flight doctor and he rolled in once again to save the day. Flight doctors aren't always mentored properly just like any other career field. They probably have leadership that solely looks out for themselves. I was surprised when the doc asked me about his PRF. I actually had to call a Medical Group at a different base for the information. And I showed the doc on MyPers how to figure out when he will be IPZ for the Medical Corps. Bros taking care of bros, no matter the AFSC. If you aren't in the AF anymore, how can you call a flight doctor an idiot for seeking out mentorship? I don't think any idiots make it through med school. Bendy....have a snickers.

I'm sorry! His cult deserves it.

No PSDM drop yet for the next majors board? I learned a few months back our flight docs do not receive a PRF. A letter is submitted for them. "Met all reqs. Promote!" "Did not meet all reqs, attempted to pop a cyst, thinking it was a pimple. DO NOT PROMOTE!" Just that simple. A doc was asking me about whether or not he needs to submit a PRF before his PCS. I was close to saying, "Damit Jim, I'm a pilot snacko, not a doctor." I made a call, and low and behold, no PRF for them. Just like SOS is optional for flight doctors.

If you think telling someone to drink a glass of metamucil is a personal attack then you got me. Calling a rescuer of the Thai teenagers a pedo though is on an entirely different level wouldn't you agree? "Elon Musk called a British diver from the Thai Cave Rescue a 'Pedo Guy' — then Deleted the Tweets Hours Later with No Explanation" https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-british-cave-diver-pedo-feud-thai-cave-rescue-2018-7

You can just not read the thread too. There is more to life on a Saturday than you complaining about a thread some dudes like and some may hate. It's in the squadron bar section for a reason. You did post a picture of Space X rockets landing just a page back. Yet you keep coming back to the thread. Does my posts trigger you? How about you load up on your metamucil and log out of the forum for a bit?

"Elon Musk can 'stick his submarine where it hurts', says British caver who helped rescue Thai schoolboys" https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/thai-cave-rescue-elon-musk-mini-submarine-british-driver-tham-luang-vern-unsworth-a8447166.html A British diver who was instrumental in rescuing a schoolboy football team from a flooded cave in Thailand has told Elon Musk to “stick his submarine where it hurts”, describing the entrepreneur’s offer to help the mission with a miniature submersible a “PR stunt”. Vern Unsworth said a six-foot submarine the SpaceX boss invented and handed to the rescue team “had absolutely no chance of working” because the billionaire inventor “had no conception of what the cave passage was like”.

The people who can't keep their hands on the steering wheel are the same ones buying "not a flamethrower" in California of all places. Brilliant idea. In this forum, we might not like what some individuals post. But personal attacks are for Lts who wasn't loved enough by their mother, father, and IPs. Illiteracy is a huge problem. I mean if your mom COULD actually read the instructions on the side of the Plan B box, you wouldn't be here right now. Everyone loves a good mom joke..😁

Gasoline and diesel vehicles make up 99% of cars sold. EVs only account for 1% of sales. When Tesla can actually sell 10 million cars in a year like Toyota did last year, we can have this discussion. Having 450K reservations doesn't come close to measuring up to the 20 million cars total that Toyota or Volkswagen actually sold last year. There is a huge difference between a reservation and sales. Sell 10 million Teslas and lets see how the safety records compare. Battery packs can reignite after the fire has been put out which puts first responders and those trapped in a car in harms way. Why were those drivers negligent? Because Musk was making these claims and during interviews he had his hands off the steering wheel while driving himself. Tell that to the mother or father of a child who gets run over by a Tesla in a school zone because people believe everything he has to say. Musk has a cult of 22 million followers who calls him Tony Stark. Musk said, "The probability of an accident with the autopilot is less" at the 1:25 mark per your savior. I'll take the white Toyota from behind by a semi over the Tesla that hit a barrier and burst into flames because the owner was driving around on autopilot. The Japanese know how to build stuff that lasts.

True dat. Just finish your 20 years six-pack. Your plan sounds good just like being a good wingman who is drunk and takes the grenade for your boys. But you will have to wake up next to her in the morning and definitely regret the poor decision you made. Or she could make you a delicious Belgian waffle breakfast and then you kick her out. See, there may always be an upside to certain circumstances if you think about the bright side.

If the whistle blower information is correct, Musk will have touched a lot of people. People who think they paid $75K-120K for a very safe, family vehicle actually received a car manufactured in an unsafe way like the movie Gung Ho (classic). Musk said, He sleeps at the factory." Can't deny being held culpable at that point. https://jalopnik.com/tesla-s-alleged-saboteur-is-doubling-down-1827514663 "Tripp alleges a series of claims that he has made since being connected to the leak of information. In particular, he claims, that Tesla place batteries “containing dangerous puncture holes in vehicles” and overstated to investors the number of Model 3 vehicles produced by as much as 44 percent. He also claims that Tesla “systematically reused parts already deemed scrap/waste in vehicles without regard to safety,” the statement said."

100% consideration for major was supposed to be determined by last Friday. Now it's pushed to the end of this week for a decision. The old heads hate the fact individuals were promoted for doing absolutely nothing. The hate is real. This experiment will come back and bite us all.

Group exec submits two CGO packages for the Group. Other squadrons submit one package per unit. Group gets called out by awards board personnel. Group exec is triggered by my email. Email is fired off by Group exec saying the Gp/CC ultimately determines the winner for each category of packages. He said, "It's not fair these individuals at the Group have not been considered for any awards for a year. They don't have a squadron." Why the hell are you wasting my time grading these packages if the Gp/CC can do whatever he wants? I got other crap I could be doing.

That quote is from the article. I don't consider the guy a failure at all. I just want him to STFU and focus on EVs, solar, and space. The term doing too much comes to mind. I wonder if people on Twitter are trolling him because his actions to help in Thailand were because of a tweet he received. Musk thinks he really is Tony Stark who is a fictional character....
-
The IPs at Corpus still chuckle to this day about him having to crash in the Corpus Christi Bay and almost drowning. I would have never heard about this happening if it weren't for those guys. And he didn't know his emergency procedures on his solo. Who needs to know that crap?

He is the reason why the costs we pay out of pocket to cover rental housing expenses are increasing to what, 5% next year.

https://gizmodo.com/is-elon-musk-serious-1827456578 A kid-sized submarine arrived in northern Thailand, just a few hours before the final four members of a youth soccer team and their coach were rescued from the flooded Tham Luang cave complex. Elon Musk, whose minions had built the sub out of SpaceX rocket materials for the sole purpose of moving the trapped boys to safety, delivered the mini sub himself and announced his presence in a tweet to his 22 million followers. Meanwhile, the rescue chief said that the kid-sized submarine was “not practical” for the boys, as thousands heaped praise onto Musk for doing—well—it’s unclear if the bombastic billionaire really did anything helpful. Which makes you wonder: is Elon Musk serious with this shit? The short answer to that question is no. Musk has a long track record of promising to solve huge problems and then either missing deadlines or falling short.

You can't have a clearance without a background check being done period. When you are due for your clearance another background check is completed on you every single time. They are one in the same. That online form you fill out for your clearance goes to OPM. OPM is responsible for the adjudication of your clearance. If you are denied a clearance or its revoked, do you think you are going through the TSA Pre Check line?

Social media will definitely call you out if you don't follow through. Once again, Mr. Unreliable Musk rears his head.

Elon Musk was going to save Puerto Rico by rebuilding their power grid. He absorbed Solar City which was in his family and on the verge of bankruptcy. Solar City is still in debt. What state is Puerto Rico's power grid in right now you ask? Regular civilians who have no training is trying to repair parts of the grid so their families can have power. This was another BS PR stunt by Musk. Professional divers are rescuing those football players without any help from Elon Musk period. A mini sub is useless in a complex cave structure where divers can hardly even fit oxygen tanks through for the children to utilize let alone themselves. Of which one former Thai Navy Seal has already perished attempting to assist. A little research on your part and listening to actual experts go a long way. Last thing you want is the man responsible for self driving cars who have run into 2 parked fire trucks, a parked police car, and a highway barrier in the past 4 months to say anything. Not the man I want trying to save children. This is the same man who thought he could build a car assembly line with robots performing most of the work and out manufacturer the top automakers. The Japanese wrote the book on efficient car manufacturing. Elon failed miserably by thinking he was smarter than everyone else and had to admit he was wrong. Guess it's okay to be wrong burning through billions of other people money. But churning out cars like in the 80s movie Gung Ho is definitely a car people should buy. I don't see Bill Gates trying to make headlines every week or lying to investors. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs never had to claim they were sleeping on a factory floor in order to resolve manufacturing problems. That's an illusion for Elon Musk micromanagement leadership style. I guess your plan is to put Ant-Man in Elon Musk mini sub? Brilliant.

I was talking to a friend via messenger who is a captain in the JA office. I was telling her about queep and gave her an example because she had never heard the term before. I wrote, "Queep - Wing commander tells every officer on base they must fill out a court member data form for the JA office." My friend couldn't stop laughing.

I know some of you guys probably follow stock prices and the value of Tesla or the net worth of the company's CEO. Has the world gone mad calling EVs the future and comparing the CEO to Tony Stark? I want your opinions on the stock and stupid sh$t like this: https://www.theverge.com/2018/7/7/17544452/elon-musk-spacex-thailand-cave-soccer-team-kid-sized-submarine-rescue

There is this thing called a screen protector now you could put over the center console. Pretty sure one could be made in China for $1 to cover the screen and keyspad, but will cost the AF $500 a pop. Just saved the AF $113K.
