I enlisted in the Air Force last July and I’m currently finishing my senior year of high school before leaving for BMT in August. I got a 93 on the ASVAB and I chose command post as my job. I originally wanted air traffic control, however my uncorrected vision was not good enough. My plan is to get lasik to improve my uncorrected vision and hopefully cross train into ATC. My recruiter, who has been beyond helpful in this whole process, says that this shouldn’t be a problem, and the head Air Force lady at the MEPS seemed to think it was highly likely as well. Now that you know the situation, my questions are:
1. What are the chances that I am successful in cross training into ATC from CP?
2. Does anyone know anything about the command post job? I’ve heard mixed reviews and I’m looking for more.
3. I want to make a career out of the Air Force, but I’m undecided about an original four or six year enlistment. Any opinions on that?
4. The command post job comes with top secret security clearance, how valuable is this in the civilian job market?
My recruiter has answered these questions for me, however I’m just looking for a few more opinions on them. Any other information you think is important is also greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help!

I got some disturbing answers reflecting tunnel vision & not a lot of thought, just knee jerk defense of Fox. It’s a fact they are biased against Romney, it’s a fact that their reporting is skewed & has been since 2008. It’s a fact that they use memo’s to control the content across all shows but Opinion shows but evidence shows they have been lining up all the shows & even all radio affiliates with a common message. Fox all Fox shows & radio (which was independent in 2008, but not in lock step) play the same themes on the same days. Pound the same stupid little things all day long. That’s how Fox has always worked, but they haven’t used it as much in unfair bias until 2008 against Romney.
Do you think Fox is perfect & uncorruptible? Anyone who critiques them has to be a democrat? They are better than all the other networks, until it comes to primaries then they are usually much more biased, and it’s real & measurable, while their smirks when they speak of Romney less so, but i’ve been watching.
What is wrong with you? You should keep your own house in order. You can’t go after media bias in other networks while ignoring Fox or you’re just another hypocrite. The world has enough of that.
This has been an eye opener, I didn’t consider that Conservatives could be just about as knee jerk and deliberately obtuse as Liberals, but I was obviously wrong.

So god works through people right? And people have free will right? So did god make everyone with a vision in mind of the choices they were going to make in life?
I have a choice tomorrow.
I can:
A.) Rob a bank
B.) Go to school.
Regardless of the two choices I can only live one reality. Now even though it’s MY choice, how do I know it’s really MY choice? How do I wasn’t MEANT to make a set of choices from the instant god created me?
So are how can I be sure that predestination isn’t real. (NOT SAYING PREDESTINATION AND THE BIBLE ARE AFFILIATED.)
I just find this interesting.
Even if you don’t believe in god, this is still a good thing to consider.
Despite what we think, are we bound to a certain fate regardless of what we think?
And by saying that god didn’t make us knowing what we’d do with our free will, then does that mean god can’t see the future? Then how would he know what people he would work through to make this world a better place? (Atheists Ignore this paragraph.)

Ok, I’m not gonna go crazy into details here but this is my vision.
I have always been above average in computer skills, and thrive off of learning how to do new things.
After many years, I have acquired many talents. Web design, Graphic design, Network penetration/intrusion with linux. etc. etc.
In the back of my mind I guess I always hoped these skills would start to pay off organically, But this has not been the case.
Some people are naturally good at marketing and making business decisions, however, this has been one of my weak points.
No matter how beautiful or informative a Web Site I design, I have yet to master the art of making it profitable.
So now on to my point. I need a partner / partners
Someone who either has skills similar to mine, or skills that will compliment mine in business.
Perhaps some marketing skills? knowledge of affiliate networks and how to use them etc.
Im not looking for anything extremely specific. If you feel like you have great ideas or know how to work well with great ideas, perhaps we can make money together.
If you have a website idea that you think would boom if built correctly i believe i could turn that vision into reality.
As optimistic as it might sound, My long term goal is to build a company sort of like Hasoffers.com or Google even (quite optimistic huh?) but unique in a new way of course.
So now i have put it out there, and will leave the rest to you. With the economy the way it is, surely there are other people with visions like mine and who want to turn their skills into profits.
Just so this isn’t misleading, I’m Merely a guy with a house and a few computers and an internet connection trying to spark something innovative.
Anyone who brings something good to the table will become 50/50 partners unless theres more than 2 of us of course.. age is not an issue, and I am 25 if your wondering.

In the upcoming film Limitless there is a medication that allows him to be very good at what he does. Is there anything available in the pharmaceutical world that compares. I do know there was a medication that had a dopamine re-uptake inhibitor but was quickly removed from the market. I’m quite certain I’m capable of these tasks if I could only stabilize such a thing into a format. Most of us agree it is the vision. The secrets become quite extraordinary and what lengths does one have to go to, to create their own? I believe we are talking about some seriously fine chemicals that may only be stabilized in nature, the question is, is it by nature?

It’s called, “Glass is Three-Quarters Full”
CHORUS:
Let’s raise a glass and toast, but have control, yeah, people let’s go!
Don’t be depressed, just hope! Let’s spread some hope! Yeah, people let’s hope!
I see your glass as half, your glass as half, no, three-quarters full!
I see your glass as half, your glass as half, no, three-quarters full!
VERSE 1:
With a bitter frown it has been awhile since you’re sittin’ down with a smile/
Now I’ve figured out with that 40 ounce you’re just drinkin’ now ’cause you’re down/
You have hit the ground there’s just no way down—there’s just one direction—it’s up!/
You are sadly stuck in this massive rut so I’ll just suggest you adjust/
If you want success yo I must suggest you adapt with positive thoughts/
‘Cause the positive thoughts solidify results you’d want—think positive stuff!/
‘Cause like mist or fog the real negative thoughts can obstruct your vision and path/
You will hit a trap you will hit a snag when you have no vision intact/
When you’re feelin’ stressed or just feel distressed—yo don’t be beatin’ yourself!/
But within yourself find some inner peace or inner meaning—it helps!/
And you’ll realize how when you know yourself that you’ll find your niche and your place/
With a leap of faith like within your brain you will see the bleakness erased/
What I mean to say’s: “Things will be okay! Have faith in goals that you set!”/
If you know your passions and your goals you are on the road to success/
If you go ahead and ignore the negatives—yeah you can go far!/
And just know success is what you’re destined for, and shoot for the stars!/
(CHORUS x2)
VERSE 2:
Life’s like photography, you use the negatives to develop/
Don’t let a challenge bring you down, you gotta stick with the challege/
Whenever doubters run they mouths you gotta stick it to doubters/
Whenever you’re wantin’ to excel you gotta think you’ve got talent/
In your life no doubt you’ll see ups and downs but don’t let the downs do you in/
When you’re feelin’ down don’t be sittin’ down smokin’ spliffs or downin’ a gin/
You must figure out how to tough it out with the grit and talent you bring/
You must figure out how to stick around, how to pick your battles and win/
And you have to think when you make mistakes they’re steppin’ stones to success/
Don’t just mope or fret, don’t just get so stressed or just get real low and depressed/
Don’t get so obsessed with the hopelessness or obsessed with hopin’ you’re dead/
You won’t know success with that sole distraction that is spreadin’ over your head/
When you dig for treasure when you dig for gold you will have to still understand…/
The real treasure chest you’ll eventually get if you’ve invested all that you can/
When you call an end to an exhaustin’ effort you will never know what you’ll get/
‘Cause with every step and with every depth you dig the closer you’ll get./
(CHORUS x2)
VERSE 3:
When you promptly slip and the struggles hit, is it darkness that you envision?/
Up is cost of livin’, when economy’s slippin’, I just hear some constantly bitchin’…/
“It’s my job I miss, it’s at home I sit, with the ample losses I’ve witnessed!”/
But we have to switch to positive thinkin’ to just make the toughest decisions/
When the problems hit remain calm and strictly stick to positive thinkin’/
Even though we’re constantly inundated with the opposite picture…/
From the thugs to kids to the poverty-strickened livin’ in squalid conditions/
When the gunshots ring troubled thugs would simply just get locked up in prisons/
With like drugs and guns in the picture, really it’s just awfully ridiculous/
When we’ve got like kids or other innocent just fallin’ as victims/
When the problems hit some are awfully quick to just resolve them with triggers/
Some just obviously think when they pop their pistols they will make their problems dimish/
But we cannot combat this sickness…with like drugs or doctor’s prescriptions/
When you fall or slip, when the problems hit you just can’t resolve them with liquor/
In a trough you’ll dip in a trough you’ll sink if you think it’s darkness you live in/
When the struggles hit think of positive things—concentrate and follow your vision!/
(CHORUS x2)
