cyber is the same. Guard/Reserves Cyber is neck and neck with active duty, if not better. Hell I read an article somewhere where a bunch of Reservists demolished an active duty unit in an network penetration/denial exercise.

Same applies to aviation as well, at least for logistical fixed wing units. The reservist pilots in cargo/fuelers always seemed to be a lot better at the job and a lot cooler one on one

probably because they're not trying to make O-6 BTZ as a 25 year old

I figure that and the fact that most of them are getting more flight hours a month anyhow because they're airline/air carrier pilots

But the burnout rate is really high. Go talk to some Delta pilots, their schedules are really hectic and its difficult to gain seniority.

It's like they pay super high for a reason. My brother flew a Cessna Caravan in Southern Africa for about 4 months and was being paid almost 25k a month to do it. But the hours were terrible and Africa sucks so he burned out and came back tot he states with 6 figures in his pocket and opened up a business. It's not that uncommon a story for pilots getting high paying jobs in lovely places/lovely companies to leave them after less than a year

It still cracks me up that kinder eggs are banned because they contain toys and, supposedly, a kid could choke. If your kid can swallow a full-sized plastic egg they're probably old enough to know that part isn't food.

Ironically my kids hated the chocolate part and would just throw it away to get the lovely little playmobil toy inside.

They;ve been legal in the US for a few years iirc
