There's a new workplace violence video they put out that has a creepy guy in glasses punch the wall or his cubicle and knocking down a calendar when he doesn't get promoted, making threatening Facebook comments to his girlfriend, and then finally shooting up his work center. It's a lot of fun.

Any idea if a "business communications" class would coubt for CCAF? I was doing UCA interviews and one of our guys has a bachelors already but hasn't put in for his CCAF yet. He didn't take public speaking but has this business comm class.

There is virtually no upward mobility in our flight because almost everyone stays until retirement.

The culture in my unit is mostly that being good at your job is the most important thing and a lot of the stupid poo poo that active duty cares about are ignored. That breaks down sometimes which always sucks, but oh well. As a result we're able to actually retain people who are knowledgeable about their jobs, unlike the other side where good people run away screaming after their commitment is over. The last active duty shop I spent time with everyone save two wanted out as soon as possible. The two who wanted to stay were the NCOIC tech who had 12+ years in, and a staff who recently got moved into his job after being kicked out of combat comm for a security violation and whom everyone hated.

But I've got to begrudgingly admit that these things remind me just how cool airplanes are. It's also a reminder that the Blue Angels are so much better than the Thunderbirds it's not even funny. and yes, the Blue Angels are better in every way.

I've got 2.5 years left on this enlistment and will probably go looking for a commision for afterwards. I'm tired of doing comm poo poo and our retention is so good that there's no slots to move into. I'll be lucky to put on E-6 before I go looking for greener pastures.

Godholio posted:That's...odd. ABM and Finance come through different boards. Finance and personnel were the fields they dumped people who failed the flight physical or UABMT, though. I assume they were all later force shaped, since that was only a couple of years before they were gutted. He was a good guy. Having spent time on the enlisted side he tried explaining to some of his ROTC classmates that some of their ideas about "leadership" were going to make everyone hate them. He didn't make much of dent though.

I kept one of my first set of ABUs so someday I can pull them out of the attic and go"Hey kids, look at this ugly poo poo!", right before they ship me off to a home. Some people I know managed to steal their parkas that had actual fur ruffs and not the synthetic poo poo.
