And with 9 years of experience, nad being promoted to E6, you get $125 for 2 days days of labor...................
and nothing for retirement. That's a SCAM.
Wow, you must have owed them a huge amount of money or something.
I got significantly more then that when I was a Specialist. Somewhere in the range of 3 times more.
No idea why you were getting so damned later. Forget to sign in and out much?
Its a volunteer army. And what are they going to do? MAKE ME show up in uniform? LMAO!!!!!
If you have signed a contract, yea. Not showing up is known as "desertion".
Although in the Reserves, yea. You can really just quit. They are not going to look for you at all, just send you your discharge in the mail.
It is still getting kicked out.
$100 month retirement AFTER
And once again, you continue your lies... which really shows that once again you more then likely never served in the military. Ever.
If you were to retire from the military (active or reserve) as an E-6 with 20 years service, your retirement pay each month before any taxes would be $1,862.10.
So where you are getting this figure of $100 I have no idea, other then pulling it out of your arse once again.
But please, proce to us the $100 figure.
So you work one weekend a month and one week a year out side of call ups and you think that should entitle you to a full retirement how exactly. And again your benifit benefits package is layer out in black and white. Stop blaming other people for you not reading the contract you were signing.
The problem here is that he probably never served, and seems to have absolutely no idea how the retirement works for the military.
The truth is, retirement from Active and Reserves gets you the exact same amount of money. Pretty much 50% of your base pay at 20 years, 2.5% more for each year you serve after 20, to a maximum of 30%.
The
only difference is that if you retire out of Active Duty, you get that pension as soon as you retire. If you retire out of the Reserves, you do not collect that pension until you turn 60.
Myself, I can retire in 2018 (that is when my current contract ends). But at that point, I will be 53. So I figure, why bother at 53, and wait 7 years for retirement? Might as well serve another 7 years, add another 17.5% to my pension, and hopefully gain at least one more rank (which will raise it even more).
So yes. A 50% pension is called for. At least. With inflation. AT retirement, say age 38.
Then you should have joined Active Duty. They can retire with 50% at 20 years.
You want the same benefit for reservists? Walk about a complete entitlement mindset.
