"Retired on Active Duty" (ROAD), "On the ROAD Program," "taking off the pack," and, my favorite, "FIGMO" ("F***, I got my orders!") are all terms used in the military to describe someone who stops putting out their best efforts as they approach transfer or retirement. None of these terms reflect well on the individual to whom they refer.
I mention this here because as the weather turns warm and summer draws near there will inevitably be a number of you who roll over and quit trying. It is very hard to rebuild a good reputation once you have earned a bad one. Be careful!
