FYI the chill USAF thread wasn't a month to month thread. Not sure which one of our mods closed it but it wasn't meant to be the monthly USAF thread. It's the chill USAF thread.

TIA for correcting this.

The best AF thread. :chord:

Or....sell this app to the AF as Dominoes, LLC, for hundreds of thousands of dollars per license.

Nah, man. With a sweet bullet like that he could get a DP, an Achievement Medal, or *gasp* a Comm! He will be slaying Goldsboro pussy left and right and get a standing ovation every time he walks into the 335th ~~bar~~ heritage room as they cheer Chief IT Support.

Contender for least gay post in this thread.

Well call me crazy but the poo poo clouds are on the horizon for this hospital and I'm looking to jump ship. It turns out the Air Forces strategy of hiring a ratio of 2:1-3:0 catty teenage girls to guys has resulted in a moody back logged mess that they apparently can't yell at because it's mean and makes people cry.
Either I'm going to end up in charge of clearing this backlog since I was the one who did it the last time or more likely I'll just be told to clear the backlog and do my regular job.

I could probably roll into Travis winthin the next year easy but I want to see the world and all that jazz so which OCONUS base is the best? Landstuhl, Kadena, Lankenheath?

Edit: Basically I'm tired of having been here one of the longest, I'm tired of being one of the most skilled and reliable, I'm REALLY loving tired of being the go to guy. I want to be the guy who gets OCONUS orders to a 4 man shop with less than a year on station because I'm so lovely I stand out even in this poo poo show. I want to be the person they don't put on patient care because they can't be trusted to not kill someone even with a Dr. hanging over their shoulder. I want to be the person who gets little crying breaks in the break room because answering a phone is so loving hard.

What exactly do you do? Are you looking for an inpatient gig or a small clinic? There's some hidden gems out there.

Everyone I know who has been to any of those bases lived them. You can't go to any of the fun little clinics like RAF Menwith Hill or Croughton, but even if the lab sucks at those bases, it will take effort to be miserable off-duty.

You can get unemployment when your spouse is still working?

Well, I've now gone from TDRL to PDRL. You goddamned faggots will never not have me walking slowly through the parking lots and filling the waiting lines on bases across this great land.

Go gently caress yourselves,

Don't confine your mission to bases. Make sure that any time you see someone in uniform, wearing anything with a military logo, sporting a mil haircut, etc. you interrupt whatever they're doing--especially if they're with their friends and family--to tell them every real and fictitious detail of your career, your friends' career, and your child's/nephew's/neighbor's kid's career. The more inane your job, the more you should elaborate. Don't let our clear discomfort and closed posturing dissuade you! Block the doorway, ignore all attempt to end the conversation, and keep talking. Be sure to throw in some racial slurs or other offensive material to add to the ambiance and force us into the Catch-22 of either ignoring your racism in front of our friends and family or causing a scene with a disabled veteran in public.

And by all that is holy, if anyone fails to kowtow to your every whim, whether it be waiters, doctors, or TSA agents massaging your balls, make sure they know that YOU EARNED THEIR RESPECT WITH YOUR SERVICE :bahgawd:

and cause the biggest scene imaginable.

Explain in a very serious tone that all sex is rape.

I played the South Park "Niiiice" clip when some guy went off on a long creepy women raping men rant.

I need to point out before I forget, I discovered that our BX has a Magic/D&D store inside where the typical used lovely movie store or TCN dependent novelty military attire tends to go but...I'm at a space base so I was less than surprised.

You're making Rek jealous.

It wouldn't take much for the AF to be a decent organization to be a part of though. Most of the bullshit is in place for no real reason and, if leadership so desired, could be extracted with few negative effects, if any. At the same time, morale would go up, a ridiculous amount of man-hours would be saved, processes would be streamlined and the AF could actually approach the rapid-reaction capability it pretends to have.

Yes, it's the worst sort of pie in the sky wishful thinking, but just imagine if ancillary training and mass/CBT training were overhauled, pre deployment requirements/training were better organized, and entire ORE/ORI/UCI/etc inspection process were updated out of the 70s?

And if your husband would just stop getting drunk and smacking you around, he'd be a really solid guy.

There is no doubt that a huge proportion of the misery in the AF is self-inflicted. My overly-optimistic hope after hearing Gen Welsh's initial speeches was that he'd be the guy to start slashing a lot of the B.S. :ohdear:

and now, anime and octopus porn

At least one of those isn't our fault. Proof.

Let's all be honest. We wouldn't have complained as much about OEF/OIF if we had gotten to lay waste to every building, rock, and person in sight and then procured their best women. This is why the WW2 gen was the greatest generation. We couldn't even look at semi-nude magazine pics much less bang the best pussy the Arab world had to offer.

I have to admit I'm skeptical of German food after spending time in Pennsylvania. The local cuisine highlights were scrapple and hog maw.
