When is enough enough?
To be up front, I am not yet at the point in my transition process where I am applying for SkillBridge; I'm about a year out.
That said, I watch this sub and have also observed many Soldiers and Airmen get completely screwed over after they have completed every step correctly, only to be delayed, denied, or become victims of ineptitude.
This program is supposed to be the bridge to a civilian career for many. Why even have it if "leaders" and administrative personnel are going to undermine transitioning service members? At this point, I am afraid I can't trust that I will be able to use SkillBridge at all. It seems to be hit or miss, and that seems unfair when we need a sure thing.
How can we get the attention of senior leaders in order to fix this? Who would be the best person or office to request that this process be audited/investigated/fixed? Not just for a single person, but in its entirety. The program is broken.
I'd love other people's thoughts on this.
