How much longer before you finish tech school? They still have the phase system* for tech school students?
* As a transition for tech school students freshly arriving from the strictly-regimented atmosphere of Lackland AFB and basic training, students were placed on a three-phase system, gradually increasing privileges as time went on.
In Phase I, you couldn't wear civilian clothes or leave the confines of the dorms after duty hours. Phase II allowed the use of the Airmen's Club on weekends, civvies in the dorms off duty, but you were still restricted to the base. You were allowed to go off base on weekends, so long as you signed out at the CQ (charge of quarters) desk and returned before curfew. In Phase III you were essentially treated as permanent party; wear civilian clothes off duty, no restrictions on where you could go on or off base except to return before curfew.
Some were crafty enough to participate in that (in)famous sport of 'phase-busting'. Basically, this was trying to sneak into the next phase before you were entitled to. Get caught, and you could get rolled back a phase or two.
