Default Air Force TODO's step inside

Are there any AF guys in here that are also TODO's? I'm going to be filling in the TODO spot for my flight here soon, just wondering if there were any more TO guys on here.

It's boring... I started the TO training and did about half of it then got pulled off the program, but did enough and helped enough when we were in control of our TO's to know I never want to do it again :O

You don't need to tell me it's boring! I finished up the Advanced TO course yesterday. Right now I'm my element's Library Custodian, so I know all too well how **** and boring the world of TO's can be!

But I was hand picked for this flight TODO job, so I gotta make the best of it. Right now I'm only filling in as a temp as the primary TODO will be TDY. But there's talk that it may become a full time position, but that's all heresay.

All I know is at least now I'll be able to get a lunch break...as the shop I'm in now doesn't get one.

Have fun with that job. I'm in QA up here in Alaska, and my desk is next to the T.O. guy. He's a busy man

Yea try to get out of it. I had to do all that crap too and it just plain out sucks!!! I just kinda stop doing it since I got back from Iraq. I'm not really sure if i'm still on the program or not, but like malicious said, they took our to's down to support in another shop (down the hall) and I'm not aloud in there without an escort makes a lot of sense.... but this is cannon...

That's one reason i love the new Tough books. All T.O. updates on a single disk. Just upload it to all the laptops. We have a few paper to's left. But, mainly for Specific things like Landing gear, Wheels, and oh all the other MDS that come through Holloman. I'm not the TODO here, but i was at kusan for a year, and it sucked having to updated almost 400 TO's in a month cuz they were sooooo out of date. We even have the TO's on our Desktops in the shop. We no longer have the paper -06 which blows, luckily in cams i have auto-fil. HEHEHE

Well, been at the job about 2 weeks now. It's not so bad. Takes a little bit to get used to. There's alot of stuff to forget if you're not careful. We'll see how it goes.

But it is nice to finally get a lunch break!

We got rid of our -06 too. But you can pull it up on the internet so that helped us. I rather use the book instead.
