00:00.798 --> 00:02.802
- All right, so I heard you are a gamer.

00:02.802 --> 00:05.385
(upbeat music)

00:10.234 --> 00:11.067
- Well--
- You a newbie?

00:11.067 --> 00:12.744
- I don't play a lot of online gaming.

00:12.744 --> 00:13.577
- OK.

00:13.577 --> 00:15.910
- Because I can't beat these 12 and 13-year-olds.

00:15.910 --> 00:17.154
- So, you're not trash talking the 12-year-olds

00:17.154 --> 00:17.987
on the mics?

00:17.987 --> 00:21.481
- No, I've been beaten down by a 12-year-old,

00:21.481 --> 00:23.171
they'll tell you, "Hey, you're a newb.

00:23.171 --> 00:25.088
"Log out, read a book."

00:26.006 --> 00:27.231
- Oh wow, they're vicious.

00:27.231 --> 00:30.552
- It is a very competitive, and it hurts your feelings.

00:30.552 --> 00:31.964
I'm a sensitive guy, you know.

00:31.964 --> 00:33.307
- [Woman] Yeah. (laughs)

00:33.307 --> 00:35.097
- [Man] I don't like my feelings hurt.

00:35.097 --> 00:38.264
- So you wanna play, Would you Rather?

00:38.305 --> 00:39.138
- Sure.

00:39.138 --> 00:43.305
- So, would you rather fight a 100 duck-sized horses

00:43.804 --> 00:45.804
or one horse-sized duck?

00:45.980 --> 00:48.068
- I would take a horse-sized duck, I would just take that.

00:48.068 --> 00:49.344
- Just the one horse-sized duck?

00:49.344 --> 00:51.789
^- I would hit his sweet spot, take him out.

00:51.789 --> 00:52.687
^- [Woman] What about the beak.

00:52.687 --> 00:54.504
- But I can handle him, hit him in the ribs,

00:54.504 --> 00:55.535
take him out real quick.

00:55.535 --> 00:59.702
- (laughs) What do you call a fish with no eye?

01:00.657 --> 01:01.574
It's a FSH.

01:02.771 --> 01:05.021
Get, it, there's no I, FSH.

01:06.051 --> 01:07.384
F-S-H.

01:07.932 --> 01:10.432
Who would you promote, demote,

01:10.461 --> 01:12.044
and then kick on out of the Air Force?

01:12.044 --> 01:13.638
Wait, wait wait, let me reword it.

01:13.638 --> 01:16.183
Ah, who would you promote, like, step promote

01:16.183 --> 01:17.838
out of this car right now?

01:17.838 --> 01:20.488
So, like out of everyone in this car,

01:20.488 --> 01:21.443
who would you promote?

01:21.443 --> 01:23.356
- Oh, you.
- Oh, awesome, thank you.

01:23.356 --> 01:25.021
- Yeah, yeah, I would give you the stripe,

01:25.021 --> 01:26.824
if the General had a stripe (woman laughs)

01:26.824 --> 01:29.459
I would say, "Give it to her right away."

01:29.459 --> 01:30.971
- I appreciate it, appreciate it. (laughs)

01:30.971 --> 01:32.513
Anyway, who would you demote?

01:32.513 --> 01:33.940
- Who would I demote? (woman laughs)

01:33.940 --> 01:37.412
So, I would probably demote Chief Wassail.

01:37.412 --> 01:39.227
- Yeah? (laughs)
- Yeah.

01:39.227 --> 01:40.809
No, we give him a hard time.

01:40.809 --> 01:42.637
So, he's kind of like the youngest.

01:42.637 --> 01:44.012
- [Woman] So he's just the one you pick on?

01:44.012 --> 01:45.921
- Yeah, we pick on him, so let's demote him.

01:45.921 --> 01:46.754
- OK, perfect.

01:46.754 --> 01:48.308
- He's a great guy, but I would still demote him.

01:48.308 --> 01:49.141
- Demote him. (laughs)

01:49.141 --> 01:51.259
- He would make it again, he's like 17.

01:51.259 --> 01:52.092
- He's got time.

01:52.092 --> 01:53.663
- Yeah, he has time.

01:53.663 --> 01:55.231
- So, who would you kick out?

01:55.231 --> 01:57.192
- Who would I kick out? (woman laughs)

01:57.192 --> 02:01.076
Ooh, who would I kick out the Air Force right, today?

02:01.076 --> 02:02.493
I would kick out,

02:03.560 --> 02:05.331
ah, let's kick out Chief Caponia

02:05.331 --> 02:06.356
from the Maintenance Squadron.

02:06.356 --> 02:07.420
- You say that like, why not.

02:07.420 --> 02:08.993
- Yeah, why not.
- Just kick him out.

02:08.993 --> 02:11.244
- He's gonna get this, and he's gonna be at my desk

02:11.244 --> 02:12.198
trying to choke me.

02:12.198 --> 02:14.055
- (laughs) You wanna go grab some coffee?

02:14.055 --> 02:16.080
- Yeah, let's go.
- (laughs) All right.

02:16.080 --> 02:18.330
- All right, this was easy.

02:19.647 --> 02:22.765
You know, learning is a continuous process, and

02:22.765 --> 02:24.250
I've started this 39 things,

02:24.250 --> 02:26.003
this professional development thing.

02:26.003 --> 02:27.499
- Yeah, I've been to a couple of those courses.

02:27.499 --> 02:28.778
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:28.778 --> 02:31.307
But, odds are you're gonna get promoted

02:31.307 --> 02:33.177
and then you're gonna be thrust into new responsibilities,

02:33.177 --> 02:35.742
why aren't you learning some of this stuff now?

02:35.742 --> 02:38.721
So, you maybe don't start out hitting home runs,

02:38.721 --> 02:40.809
or hitting three pointers right away,

02:40.809 --> 02:44.531
but through hard work, mentorship, and determination,

02:44.531 --> 02:45.880
you can do anything in the Air Force,

02:45.880 --> 02:47.097
or anything in life.

02:47.097 --> 02:50.128
That's the whole-person concept, that's how you make Chief.

02:50.128 --> 02:52.576
You don't buck, you don't kiss butt, you don't do all that,

02:52.576 --> 02:54.738
you do those three things very well,

02:54.738 --> 02:56.322
your chances are pretty good

02:56.322 --> 02:59.239
that you will promote in the ranks.

03:01.026 --> 03:02.888
I'm proud of all the airmen for all the hard work

03:02.888 --> 03:06.389
they're doing, their ability to be resilient,

03:06.389 --> 03:09.369
locked down on base, but they're still taking care

03:09.369 --> 03:12.267
of two missions, two important missions,

03:12.267 --> 03:13.600
sureity and OIR.

03:14.328 --> 03:17.803
The support we're doing for the OIR folks is amazing,

03:17.803 --> 03:19.631
you hear about all the ISIS, all the fighting,

03:19.631 --> 03:22.312
been thinking ISIS, that is being launched

03:22.312 --> 03:23.625
at this very base.

03:23.625 --> 03:27.161
To do these two dual things at this little base,

03:27.161 --> 03:29.988
one of the smallest bases in USAF is amazing.

03:29.988 --> 03:32.655
(upbeat music)
