How is the flight surgeon always “away”? Lol

It took me 4 months to get cleared by medical because the flight surgeon got Covid… 83 times.

You’re kidding

 

[Blackbullitt]

No. Apparently my FS hasn’t even reviewed anything. I had my physical 8/31

I had my physical 8/21 same response, just waiting on the FS

 

[AV8R]

You’re kidding

Physical was done November 13th and I cleared medical March 19th.

Has anyone else noticed that the list on the EODS website for required reading material is not congruent with the list on the FAA website link provided? Feels weird signing my EODS saying I read stuff when I didn't because it wasn't on the website.

Also, my HR lady is not responding.... I am getting married at the end of the month... Should I fill out my W4 form as if I am already married since I will be married before my first day of employment?

Curious I saw in your sig, that you had two drug test dates back to back

 

[Blackbullitt]

I just was informed, I passed the MMPI-2.

I know right. Literally nightmares.

I actually did dream I failed it hah

Damn thats rough. Honestly the sf-86 was more of a nightmare. Now I'm waiting on the All mighty FS clearance

Freezing by Miami standards

Anything under 80 I’m shivering, to keep it ?

Man, I really must have done something to rub CS the wrong way. Haven't heard anything from her since I cleared.

Wow, you're lined up with me pretty closely on dates (since I can actually see signatures now). We'll probably get our date like next week and there will be nothing CS can do to ferment any more uncertainty. And we'll have bigger fish to stress about at that point ?. Not to be all optimistic

Hah, I love the cold! Friday morning was about 50 here, and most of the contractors were wearing hoodies while I was out in short sleeves.

Anything above 80, I’m melting and miserable. ?

Would love to have a day of that.

AZ Is finally getting a break from Oven like weather.

Anyone that had DP as their rep heard anything? I emailed a month ago and she was still out, but didn’t know if someone else was still handling her stuff or not.

Side note, when I emailed CS(as the automated reply from DP said to do), CS said that my HR Specialist KH would be in contact. Seems like DP isn’t my contact anymore.

I have dp. If you just did your medical today, you’ve got a long ways to go. You most likely won’t be cleared for a few weeks and your looking at a training date of like 6 months from now

I’ve already done my medical a few weeks ago. The medical office has sent my clearance over to aviation careers a week or two ago.

You still probably won’t hear anything. I’ve learned with her is she doesn’t respond unless it’s pertinent to what you need to do. When she was on leave the different departments that needed stuff, they reached out directly. For example the faa doctor needed more clarification on something, they contacted me directly. Id say it’s an average of 4-6 weeks of being cleared once the last thing is submitted. As far as dates they are only on people that were cleared in March right now. I’d say just keep an eye on your emails. No news is good news.

I've occasionally had luck calling her and just out right asking her questions. She has given me plenty of rough estimates for a start date every time I've called but every date she gave me has failed to be correct. ?‍♂️ I guess that's just how it is at this point. Also she didn't give me an exact date when I fully cleared but instead she gave me a rough idea where I was on the list of people waiting for classes.
