  1. Taking your toys from the sand container and going home? Riiiihht. If this dose of reality was too much, you didn't have the heart for it anyway. Putting my money on: you're not real. Troll.
  2. HOTAS Kidding...but only kind of.
  3. You had the opportunity to STFU, and you stiff armed it. You have no fing clue what you're talking about. Leadership, flying, or UAVs. You sound like the biggest whining child ever, and no one wants to listen to preaching from a toddler.
  4. There's a huge difference between good attitude and dismissive naivety that manifests as douchebaggery. You sought opinions and wagered it was worth it, but I'm guessing you did the standard taking the opportunity to STFU, work hard, study, listen to experience, and learn during the process. That's the key.
  5. Quit trolling.
  6. If you don't accept the assignment to Clovis, you have to "7 day opt" via bombing in Iraq.
  7. It's because he's a trolling ass clown.
  8. Is there an artificial feel of the thump when the weapons release in the GCS now? THAT was the block 50 upgrade we were waiting years for?!
  9. What do you think our Air Force does? And who's being honorable? You're just saying random catch phrases.
  10. This is my surprised face.
  11. Holy thread resurrection, Batman. Tangentially related WSJ article: Why Free Speech Matters on Campus by Michael Bloomberg and Charles Koch. (Full text attached) I'll be honest, when I saw the authors I wasn't expecting much, but it's a rather coherent and reasonable way to tell everyone to stop being pansies. Really, though, I just wanted this video floated back to the top: https://www.cc.com/video-clips/9fgyc6/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-marines-in-berkeley Why Free Speech Matters on Campus.pdf
  12. But you have the opportunity, a pivotal moment, to implement actual organizational change and fix the culture that is driving people to leave. No money required, just amending useless/harmful policies and leadership behavior. Or, you can implement stop-gap measures that will perpetuate the problem of discord.
  13. I knew signing up that flying is inherently dangerous and death is possible, but I usually try avoiding it. Also, no shit. Everything is possible, unless it involves AFPC acting smartly.
  14. TLDR: stop highlighting differences, set common standards, and emphasize common goals. The more differences are emphasized by diversity programs, the more people start to react to us/them divisions. Applicable to many qualifiers (race, sex, religion, etc). Hard Truths About Race on Campus - WSJ.pdf
  15. Fits perfectly with the AF Birthday meal celebration menu J-10. Services!
  16. Frankly, no; I guess my point is money beyond what I'm getting isn't a good incentive, from my POV. It's not millions of extra dollars that sounds cool about airlines, it's not qweeping out when you're off the flying clock. Mission enjoyment outweighs it still for my case. Clearly not for many.
  17. I'd rather have them match the lack of outside-of-flying qweep and get paid the same.
  18. Was it also limited to level turns?
