    Good deal :gj:

    It's been a long road. Spent a few months studying for the ASVAB, and then went and talked to a recruiter, who scheduled me the next week to take the test. Scored pretty well - not what I wanted to get, but I qualified for the jobs I wanted. Mostly Cyber Warfare jobs. I'm the tech nerd here, so it makes sense that I get a job in computers, right?

    Got a call a bout 3 weeks after going into MEPS with a job offer for Cyber Transport Systems apprentice. You do any research, you'll know you can't be picky for the Air Force. ANY job you can get, you're lucky. Did a little research on the job and it turns out it's right up my alley. It's mostly computer networking.

    I'm hoping to cross train in a couple years into Cyber Warfare Operator - but who knows? I may end up liking this job so much I want to stay - Or I may end up hating the military lifestyle so much I bail. Just hafta see how things go :)

    Good luck to you joining. What stage are you in now? Taken the ASVAB? Been to MEPS?

    good luck at BMT ive been in for almost 7 years and its like any other job it has its ups and downs. Keep your head up at BMT. If you get a chance volunteer for KP duty. Learn the airmans creed before you leave it will keep the TIs of your back for a little bit lol.:salute:

    Thank you all for the wonderful comments and wishes :)

    Getting ready to go check into the hotel - and from then on out, it's no computer. I may still hop on from my iphone and lurk a bit :)

    But for now, it's farewell! See you in 2 months :D

    (i'm smiling now - but I just know that in about 24 hours I'll have a training instructor in my face making sure that smile is gone!)

    BYEEEE!

    Wait, who are you again?

    On the serious side though, good luck and all that.

    Remember, when you're in those sticky or uncomfortable interpersonal confrontations, all you have to do is think to yourself, "What would Wilomn do?"

    Then go do what Skiploader would do, dipthong.

    Good luck.
