And just to give you another laugh, for the last couple of days, and more so today, it was restart Apache, restart SQL, restart php-fpm. Then, when that didn't work (because of all the F5s, and no memory) it was forceful reboot - chewing gum and band-aids for several days. Then there was all the security alerts about the server which was caused by all of the PMs, notifications, emails and whatnot because the serve was not used to the gazillion % increase. Fun though...

I think everyone knows about that F5 after this one!

That's the truth there!

Thank you and congratulations on getting the S.

And congratulations to everyone who made it! Milk & cookies or beer & pretzels on the house.

@HawkISback, I've known you on this forum for a very, very long time and have seen you move up in rank over the years. In between making rank and getting kicked off this forum here and there , I've seen the knowledge and experience you've gained and then shared with others – I saw that transformation that was leading to Chief. I am very happy you made Chief, and I had to go get my daughter to tell her the good news that you had made it. Whatever you do, please continue helping others and whatever happens don't change. Just continue being yourself because you were already Chief's material.

I think he might be talking about the one on the left sidebar here -> http://www.navyadvancement.com/navy-store/navy-books-reading-program.php

Glad to see you swing by.

Lol, that is automated. Every rule in the guideline has a particular origin. For that one, it was the argument I got into with the Navy office that actually releases the results, and them only sharing with that paper.

This is the part I don't like - those who get left in the dark. Happens every year. Take care of your Sailor? I don't think so

Yes, it was release to all Navy (Triad). Just different time zones.

Well, I hope you can hit up someone who sat the board willing to offer some no fluff advise.

Are you going to try and hit up some of the Chiefs? (After a rest?)

I have turned registration back on.

No problem, but the thing is that you can't make a comparison, between the E-4 through E-6 group and th E-7 promotion. My thought is that the real issue, as with all other rates, is the attrition rate (or lack there of) with E-7 and above. I know an AG1 who was resigned to the fact that AG quotas have never been that good as @OS1(SW/EXW) said, and he spent his final years in the Navy pursuing his hobbies and perfecting his BBQ grilling techniques - a real stand up guy too. I might not be seeing the whole picture though, being stuck behind this server.

?

That information Vape83 posted was false people. What an idiot.

Don't forget to floss.

@Vape83, I PMed you

As a reminder, pounding on refresh is not going to do any good. The results have been released to TRIAD. As people make it, they will post. The result in BOL and public release will come out at 8AM tomorrow.

For Selectee wives, I see @KnockoutTrish is onboard, please hit her up. She has the scoop on many things, and is a sweetheart who has also helped those in need in the past on this forum. She can help you out with many questions.

Holy cow people are listening, thanks!

Correct, stop pounding BOL AND THIS FORUM. Only Triad has access to the copy and it will make it difficult if they can't view it because everyone is pounding refresh.

As a reminder, pounding on refresh is not going to do any good. The results have been released to TRIAD. As people make it, they will post. The result in BOL and public release will come out at 8AM tomorrow.

Maybe everyone making the mistake of thinking they will see the results. REsults are for Triad only right now.
