Which airplane/base? Still 80 open in 11/MEM FO which isn't too bad considering they primed the pump with something like 20 trips.

Basing your finances on a false expectation is a dangerous game and a poor excuse for your actions.
As far as being over 60 before you can upgrade
Shouda, Coulda, Woulda,
Maybe you SHOULDA let your cojones drop and take a chance and get out after your first tour, then you COULDA potentially been hired during the wonder years and you possibly WOULDA upgraded at your expectation rate.
Why do I have the feeling you were ALWAYS the one quibbling after returning from the range....
My scores shouldn't count 'cause
Lead's bomb obscured the target
I wasn't low on that pass, my altimeter must be off.
I can't help it if my TER was bad
I just want to be held.

I’ll leave these posts to you 12 angry men. You guys are classic liberals. Can’t win an argument with logic, so you go right for the ad hominum attack.
Good Day.

Good Day.
You are holding on tight to a perceived wrong against you as the reason for your actions. Fact - Your actions reflect on you and you alone. Don't blame others for your behavior.
BTW - What YOU ARE espousing can be defined as a product of liberal thought in America today. Good luck trying to whine yourself into a happy place.
I think you are both selfish and short sighted. If you calm down you might realize it.
PS - I am not a CA and am probably junior to you.
