This isn't the October AF thread. Please. I'll start talking about how bullshit it is that my business manager can't get reimbursable authority for more than a year at a time so it can't cross fiscal years if you let me.

Mods.

So I kinda forgot about this when I made the dickbook cause I figured someone would notice it but no one ever did. If you look at the special thanks page with the black and white background you can sort of make out an outline of what is most assuredly a picture of my dick. So yeah, dicks.

I think I just ended my AF career by turning down a job in a pretty blunt way. Coincidentally, I do not feel bad about this one bit, which is a weird feeling to have. I'm going to be a line IP until further notice which is a great thing.

They advertised a Wing Life Support Officer, so I put in for it. When meeting with the OSS Commander, he was detailing that it was going to be the Wing LSO, The Functional Area Oversight of the Life Support/Aircrew Flight Equipment Contract ...and the Chief of Wing Programming. He told me my expected flight schedule (none) then when I was visibly unpleased, told me what a great high-vis opportunity it is. I told him I did not care, and am not interested in Wing Programming.

Que a few more meetings with Commanders, and I'm going to finish my current job (Student Flight Commander) and go back to being a Line IP with the understanding that I'll ride out my Majors board then separate.

I'm actually kind of excited about this, but find it hard to believe they will let a prior-MWS IP do nothing but fly the line for 2+ years.

I walked in after lunch earlier this week to see a massive pile of toner on someone's desk. Like almost touching the ceiling massive.

It has the word "NATO" in it so I fully expect it entails lots of beer drinking, taking 3 hour lunches, and getting lots of three day weekends.

Wiping your poo poo stained dick on an airman's EPR when you get done painting his colon isn't shady. Its just what officers do.

Don't fess up to that on paper. It's PTSD or TMI or sleep apnea or whatever's on the approved list. You don't get disability for genetic defects that you "forgot" to mention at the MEPS.

The point I'm trying to make is that the only way to come out on top is to kick the Air Force in the nuts, beart it savagely with a weight and take a dump on it's face.
Once page in and we couldn't manage not to say E*R. Well, there's always November.

In a related note, five liters of Paulaner Oktoberfest beer in three and a half hours is a loving killer. It's not as bad as the year before last when I was blind drunk getting steered through the crowd by my buddy with his hand on my shoulder. I trip on something my own drunk feet, stumble forward and accidentally headbutt some girl walking the opposite way full on in her face. My buddy, being a good buddy, simply pushes me quickly away into the crowd and we go eat some delicious loving chicken and pass out in the grass by noon.

I never want to leave Germany.
