Well when I have a funny story when I decided to enlist in the army. It started with me drunk deciding maybe I should join the army on my birthday. So next sober up went to the recruiter. Here a little idea what I looked like, I had long hair to my shoulder blades been out of school for about four years. So had test anxiety took the pratice test. Did horrible the SSG wanted to give me a chance and say screw it and drive up the 1 1/2 hours with no traffic to the Niagra falls meps. The SFC did see the potential in me like the SSG. In short and cleaned up version he said don't take the f'ing retard it won't be worth it. Well the SSG convinced and took me up got a 69 on the asvab (which I guess is ok, better the. The pratice) but looking back I wounded where I would be now if that SSG didn't give me that chance.
Well any yall have any crazy sh¡t your recruiter said to you in the being.

I remember during one of our talks, the recruiter told me that during basic I would probably hate him. I asked why, and he responded this way. "Basic training is going to suck. It's supposed to suck. Just remember that it doesn't last forever."
I can honestly say I never hated my recruiter. He was completely honest with me from the word go.

I've never hated my recruiter. Very knowledgeable and helped out a lot. I just thought it was funny what his nco in charge said.

SGT Rodger Armstrong Actually my dad was an Air Force Recruiter before I enlisted. I wonder if this had anything to do with me enlisting? lol; One day during the Vietnam War a boy in school called my dad a baby killer. Hahaha. I popped him in the nose and the VP laughed and sent me back to class. Was actually proud of me.. lol

Hahahaha I hear Ya on enlisting. My dad was wheeled mechanic also. When I went up to meps to choose my mos I wanted to be a mechanic too. But all I had was cage kicker and a bunch of aviation mechanic job. I didn't want to anything but wrench on wheels. Again another SFC working with the meps civilian was like don't be dumb take aviation. You'll be able to get high paying jobs when you get out. I told him I don't want to do aviation one it was a mandatory 8yr contract active. Which I didn't even know if I would like the army. Second my idea was what happens when a truck breaks down pull over pull all safe what if a bird breaks down people will get hurt and I wouldn't want that on my mind. SFC oh ok I can see that lol
