This has been great! I am having a perfectly horrid day at the office and this board is keeping my hanging onto my sanity by my perfectly manicured princess kitty claws!!
Love you guys!!
So I see all kinds of stuff in this thread. Fun and games(hello, see above!)happy wishes, life stories. I'm going to tell a life story.
From 1992-1998 I was in the USAF. I separated honorably because I had no idea at the time what I wanted to do with my life. I was still young and free!
Anyway, when I moved back to Maine in April 2012 I had a friend in the Air National Guard who was getting ready to retire from it. She worked in dental. That's what I did while active duty and that is what I do now. Perfect. She explained retirement and the benefits and being back in uniform sounded nice so since I had already been to the school and been prior AD, even at the then age of 39 I joined up in Nov. 2012. I had to go in at the rank I got out at which was a measly E-4. To make a long story short(too late) I recently asked to separate and was granted permission. I did my final training in June and showed my replacement the ropes. I out processed this past Monday and am now inactive Reserves until my enlistment is up. I feel both a huge relief and guilt. I don't consider myself a quitter but it was getting too stressful on top of my full time job. They were not doing the things they promised, such as promotions, certain training etc. I found out I could have been promoted close to a year and a half ago but the training manager didn't know what she was doing. I was doing an E-7 job as an E-4. Plus the fact that I'm now 42 and would have to do this for another 11 years to get retirement. I don't have the patience any more and much younger people out ranking me wasn't cutting it.
Is there a point to sharing this? Not really but I wanted to vent and appreciate whomever took the time to read it. I miss the uniform but ultimately I'm relieved I don't have to go to Drill this weekend or ever again.

I wouldn't consider you a quitter either. Sounds like you put in your time, did your duty, got messed up on promotions and now are ready to move on from the stress! Enjoy your weekend, and all the ones ahead!So I see all kinds of stuff in this thread. Fun and games(hello, see above!)happy wishes, life stories. I'm going to tell a life story.
