my first time took the better part of a year; took the ASTB in Feb and didnt find out when i was leaving until late october that year. Hopefully since it's my second time around it wont take as long but who can say with how the pipelines are now.
I'm sorry to hear that dude. Do you have to go through the whole process over again or do you get a spot since you were already selected once?
Wait so you're just up in Newport? Did you go through any OCS or you got turned around before it started?
Go through process. It’s never guaranteed after dropping. Although it is possible to be accepted again just depends on the situation
Started my packet in Feb gunning for May. May filled up early so I went for Aug. Aug was cancelled so now it's Oct. This is all after I switched tracks from Army WOFT to Navy. It's funny to think I could already be Warrant Officer.
Correct. Yeah I completed about 1/3 of it. But I need to come back in a year to apply for a waiver.
Damn that sucks. Now you can sharpen your 'hurry up and wait' skills and you'll be the absolute master.
"If hurrying up and waiting is cool, then I'm Miles Davis" - the average serviceman
oof that's never good.
"have you heard about the exciting Surface Warfare program?"
Have you been on the phone with him/her for these 15 long minutes? I'm impressed. The longest phone conversation with my OR was like 6 minutes. Your OR is a chatterbox.
6 mins? lord your OR must be super friendly
That he is not. That was the first conversation we had where I mostly asked him questions. Every phone conversation since has been less than a minute.
