Forever1st

I have no lessons. I am bitter. This is the end. Over 19 years of service (11 years SBE) to include 3 PCS afloat tours. I had command collaterals (MWR, 3MA, CFL, SSO/SECMAN), LPO Sea and shore. 2 degrees, MOVSM, 3x sailor of quarter only. both my parents died when I was deployed, wasn't allowed to go home for one of them. My 13 year old has significant health problems and feels neglect from his only parent being gone most his life while his successful WO father wants nothing to do with him and never met him nor talk to him. It upsets me to see year after year unexperienced and/or terrible/mean people make chief. I am not perfect, but this definitely not a fair process. I have a theory that either I pissed off someone with power or only the cool kids and someone whos a spouse of a cool E7 and above get to advance, because you cannot honestly say that someone with less than 7 years who never PCS to a ship and doesn't have 3M quals is better qualified to be a chief.

So this fully qualified piece I have a question with it. If you look at my LADR sure I'm behind curve because at 19 I should already be a chief and the quals I should have correspond with rank I cant obtain due to rank and platform. But I have seen people in my rate make chief with being in navy 12 years less than me only being on 1 ship and their FLTMPS does not show being more qualified or experienced. One person specifically I know and he's a great man whom I trained, but definitely not experienced at 6 years of service. Maybe I'm bitter because I have some curse or something on me from years past or maybe its my destiny to retire as a 1st (thankfully it was approved).

My Fleet Reserve request was approved today. In the slight chance (11th time SBE) I was selected am I still able to go through season and get paid for last 6 months or so before separating?
