I witnessed GE sign off on unlimited operations for a CF6-80 that ran at flight idle for over two hours on a mixture of ~30% MobilJet II and 70% Skydrol. Jet engines give no fucks.

What do you want to do? General useless business skills applications of a Ltcmdr? Technical stuff? Random job I heard today was for a media company thats hiring, http://www.atlasobscura.com/about-us, they literally said just click the "Work with us" link at the bottom. Getting a job is easy.

I know I can get _a_ job, I just want to hit the ground running. Luckily I have a buddy who has been recruiting for years and and he knows his poo poo so I'm in pretty good hands. Just nervous because the Navy is literally all I've known in my adult life. I'm definitely ready to move on at this point but yeah it's definitely starting all over.

Already had that conversation. The worst part was I was ok with driving 1000 miles to test at my NOSC but one of my officers talked me out of it saying it should be fine to take my test at the closer NOSC.

Have to be a couple of you testing at the same time, they can just split the test and be done with it.

It is internal to a grad-student MBA consulting team to help guide their thinking and decision making for a veterans organization in the Minneapolis area. I'm not familiar with the project, but a friend, AF vet and current national guard pilot, is on the team and asked for support.

The AF sent me a form once a year to update my address, and the only time I got contacted for a muster was when they were about to start up a new reserve maintenance squadron at the nearby base. Instead of targeting maintainers, they just mustered anyone IRR in the area. So I made a couple hundred bucks to sit through a powerpoint slideshow and listen to an O-6 and E-9 talk about how great this new F-35 unit will be.

I kept my address up to date and once had to do a CBT over the internet on human trafficking. When I finished it, I got a certificate to print out that stated STS2/SS hogmartin HAS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED TRAINING IN: SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED TRAINING I printed it out and stuck it to the refrigerator with a magnet. That was the entirety of my IRR interaction, no muster or physical or anything. That was ten years ago though.

This may apply to between zero and one of you, but just in case.. If you're a 3910 who has taken and passed your GPC assessment(s) (Fundamentals or IA-II) and don't have your hardcopy certificate or pin (not suitable for uniform wear) yet shoot me a PM or email gpc@nmic.navy.mil. I'll either mail them to your command (or personal address if you have deuced out since taking it) or we can make other arrangements. If you're a 3910 and none of that made sense check http://www.cool.navy.mil/usn/search/CERT_GPC6155.htm. The email address on that entry is garbo so send any questions to gpc@nmic.navy.mil instead.

AAR: TAP Class is a colossal waste of time if you have even half a brain -- 90% of the poo poo they cover is available on the internet through the VA/DOL website and have you heard of GOOGLE -- You will always have a handful of idiots who think they know better, who are loud, and who ask dumb questions, so that when you're sitting there in TAP class listening to some shitbrains instructor who retired as an E6 who needs that poo poo Fleet and Family Services job to keep maintaining their crappy lifestyle they will keep interrupting you Forrealz I thought I was going to get a week out of work but after day 1 I realized that I'd rather be routing CASREPs and sucking dick on the ship than sit through this slow and methodical lobotomy. At my table sat not one, not two, but three obese "WHERE MY BENEFITS AT?" land whales who hadn't done anything for the Navy on LIMDU. Seriously gently caress this gay earth.
