I just shampoo and condition mine. I've never had problems with it itching or dandruff.

I was TAD for months sometimes and was never issued a GTC.

I still find it very hard to give a gently caress about the naval and army academies playing football.

Of course today is the day that everyone that knows I was in the navy messages me saying "go navy you watching the game?"

Angry Fish posted:I'd love a long answer. Is there some kind of primer on this available through PSD or someplace? There is a budget specifically allocated to PCSing people. It isn't infinite, but it also isn't as simple as some of the hyperbole here makes it out to be. For example, when I was in, there was a goal to have at least 70% of first tour to second tour JO SWOs stay in the same homeport. Additionally, priority was placed on people overseas in places like Japan to move back to the states, so likewise there was little difficulty PCSing to Japan. When you consider that only 30% is really going to be allowed to move and a non-trivial chunk of that will be people moving to/from Japan/Rota/Etc, you can start to see how there simply might not be enough room in the budget to move a single person over that 30% a few states down the road. Granted these percentages have likely changed in the past few years, the general concept is the same. There is a dollar ceiling and there are expected numbers through each rank group on how many can PCS.

Sir Lucius posted:Let me homestead and I might even consider re-enlisting. How am I supposed to set up my hobbyist blacksmithery if I'm going to be moving around all the time? Jeez. Depending on your job and where you actually want to stay, it is easier to stay in a single homeport for a career these days than it was 10-20 years ago. No-cost PCS are almost always favored if they can be.

I preferred when other people moved all my poo poo for me so I didn't have to do a loving thing.

I had a 35 year old guy in my boot class. The most poo poo he got was the first day when they saw how old he was. He was then pretty much ignored from then out.

Wingnut Ninja posted:I'd make a SWO joke, but that's demeaning even for them. Also because there are plenty of aviation idiot emails floating around the grapevine... There are red flags throughout, though, that let you know that she hasn't done too hot as a SWO as well. Her department head tours were cut short and she got sent to be the birthday officer at her last command. Sure, she got a 5.0 transfer fitrep, but that fitrep doesn't actually mean anything. She was headed to her last command regardless.
