SWO Board 22FEB21

[Capt_Marvel]

March Madness tourney has kept me somewhat distracted lol but with no games until Saturday, this week has felt extra long & I’m feeling very impatient ☹️ OR hasn’t said much.

It will not push back the April board.

No one will be able to apply unless they have a significant change in their package. So unless we're retaking the ASTB or getting a new degree, we will be waiting until the fall boards.

That will suck major ass.

Whose turn is it to call or email Mr.Celestin and ask whats up?

 

[exNavyOffRec]

Need this board to get results out quicker, it could push back the April board

remember it isn't the board you are waiting on it is NRC as they figure out what classes people are going into as well as other admin functions.

My OR had said that with people working remotely, it’s made that whole process much slower.

I don’t doubt it. I’ve been working remotely since March 2020 and my work goes much slower. Finance, logistics, and administrative.

So check this out, if the Nov board was on the 9th and with holidays they received official results about the 8th of Jan. So basically a month and a half wait time. What yall think?

You're forgetting that holiday leave periods happen in that time frame

No i didn't forget.. Thats why I said with holidays. I subtracted 2 weeks from 2 months. Most people in the Navy don't get Thanksgiving anddd Christmas off.

No but they generally split into multiple leave groups. Christmas and new years generally but some commands do one for Thanksgiving too. Depending on NPC leave policies there could have been a total of 6 weeks where not everyone was there (not sure if a board proceeds if some board members are on leave).

I get what you are saying, however the board members fly in from all over the country for the specific planned date. Where the delay could have happened for the both periods in your assessment would most likely apply to the personnel in the processing part. There is normally a good redundancy where alternate people continue the good work of uncle Sam. As to the efficiency part in comparison to the primaries then thats a different story.

The board takes 1 day, it is everything else that NRC does that takes time.
