A quickie update

Well after a few really cold days, I made it back to the NG recruiter to drop off my college degree and birth certificate.  I heard him on the phone with a higher up, I still don't think they know how to classify my physical control since that is what it always was, never lowered, which I believe helps me quite a bit.   I believe I am going to stay with the NG instead of the AR.  I feel like I'd be deployed to quickly, and my daughter is already upset about me joining.  Where does a 4 year old hear about the army and can rationalize that if i join, she won't get to see me much.  Kids these days.


The one thing I hate about this process, if you tell me you will shoot me an email that day, shoot me an email that day, or at least one saying, "hey don't have all the necessary info yet, i'll get back to you in a day or two, or five."  It is a big pet peeve of mine.  



In the mean time, I took a shitty shift leader job at speedway making pretty terrible wages of 8.75 a hour.   Never in my wildest dreams would I imagine having a college degree and only being able to find a job making so little money.    

On a side note, there is this NG girl that I once talked to, we started talking again and i told her i would be coming in, I think ranked above her or go ocs and she told me no and listed the reasons.   I told her I didn't care aout those reasons and it looked better on paper and I make more money which she replied thats an even worse reason to do it.   Hmmmm.  Jealous me believe?
