Make the FBI ride the bus to every investigation. If a bus doesn’t stop nearby they probably shouldn’t have jurisdiction anyway. |

Getting reimbursed for travel via DTS is already a major pain in the ass. I can see them adding a “eco friendly travel worksheet” that has to be filled out with each voucher. You’l probably have to justify how commercial air generates less CO2 than bus/train/or bicycle. Sheer stupidity

They told us that there was no way they'd get us there on time with all our shit. |

Hope's and dreams boy's, girl's' and whatever else, smile and wave everyone, smile and wave!
this is especially hilarious from my previous AO, how many Amtrack's operate in the Hawaiian island's? How many operate in between the main land? Now let's go a step further, hypothetically should I need to go to the mainland and I mean anywhere, how many days have we added to my itinerary for travel? Hahaha go fuck yourself! Realistically it would just take 6-5 hours to reach the west coast just to disembark the aircraft collect my luggage, and be on a bus and start heading to the depot, then get there get checked in and wait for my next ride. Then ride it like the hound in steerage class waiting my final destination plus any transfers. Then my final transfer to the hotel, what a joke, that's why I dont work there anymore! |

DTS must be new, but in my day it was the cheapest conveyance that could get you from point A to B and back to base. Philosophically I didn't have a problem with it until I got saddled with a Ford Fiesta, that bitch was the worst vehicle that I have ever been in. Not that car was terrible, but it didn't fit me in anyway shape or form. I'M 6'4" and the model that I got had a cheese grater on the center stack, I was happy to be done with that trip, I would have preferred a Versa at the time!
However one of the good things about my old jobs was familiarity, I came through so often I got plenty of upgrades! But they knew I was low key after awhile. I REALLY didn't care unless it had four wheels and flies. I'm there for work! Jeeps, Mustangs, Camarros, never a Charger(well there was one, a Magnum wagon that I had to do a tire change on but the boss was with me. Challengers never happened and plenty of econo cars and even once a mini van! I didn't care! Get me fom the airport to my destination and back and I'm a happy man! Sadly no exotics or supper cars but I was in the area for them. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Why would .fed workers need to travel? Serious question. Seriously, look up, not everyone in your AO lives in your time zone or in your county, you can be responsible for for assesset outside of the drive time you live in. I lived in Hawaii, was based on Oahu had assets on All of the Hawaiian island's, Guam, Singapore, Japan and another one not disclosed. Not weapons, not assets of war, but the thing that's most important to people, where am I going to live when I get to a place that I have I have never been and have no knowledge of? That was my job. As soon as your orders were on the board, "daily", I was reaching out to you to find out your current situation because we all know how current records are. I was updating dependent information, rank and desires and like an airtraffic controller trying to make you and incoming flights line up. Sure, there might have been a few sad faces along the way but you can't please everyone all of the time, sorry! I was on both sides, sometimes it works out othertimes your forced into housing because of metrics, but if you're amicable, you move to the head of the pack for relocation unless you're housing officer is broke. |

All of the Amtrak stations between Washington and Wilmington are in the ghetto to the point I would not go there unarmed. Kharn I'll raise you a MARTA, or whatever It's called in Metro Atlanta rail train on an early Monday morning that my previous wife thought was a good idea to use to go from Peachtree street back to the airport. Unarmed, full of luggage, two white people., yeah we were out of place. Responsibly nobody nobody goes looking for a fight, I'm a legit 6 4" and want nothing of this, but she's was from Memphis so no worries! Never again and that's why she's an ex! Oh I was getting plenty of side eye and don't know how I survived other than my size and situational awareness! Should have introduced her to the rule of thumb when we got home. On that one, and the fact that Atlanta and their trains are no fun when you got an economy seat and 11 hours ahead of you and your 6'4". No offense to you little people, but you've got room to spare on flights. Think back of a VW Beattle for 11 hours at your size. I used to travel with a 5' 4" guy all of the time. He would always offer to trade me my isle seat for his window seat. I had a come to Jesus Moment with him when he asked why I would never trade. I laid into him one time. I'm 6'4" don't fit in most anywhere in the modern world. Putting me near the window is not enjoyable for people of my size. I can't see out the window unless I go in to contortions to see out the window, it's much more comfortable to look over someone's lap to see the view, furthermore planes are big tubes, so if I'm tall why would I want to be already tall of stature want to willingly conformed to the outside contures of a tube just so I could have an awkward view of earth? After I explained it to his small ass, he had an ah'ah moment. It's perspective, if you're world view is only from your perspective you miss so much. Look at how others perceive the world and empathize how they perceive the world then make a judgment. |
