I began this whole "use the military to get into a in demand career field" journey back in 2016 and I still havent left for technical training yet, which is the most important part in this whole equation. It ain't gonna change. I got the wrong BAH my entire time in (after asking Finance at my first two bases and getting the same wrong answer). Fortunately I noticed while separating. Did you already go to OTS? Or is that what you're waiting on? Because if you already commissioned, they'll back date all that poo poo and you'll get the backpay.

ANG can't cut me orders or pay me as a O-1 if I'm not gained in the system(s) as an officer. Which cant be done until im separated as an E.

It doesn't help with the delay, but you should fight tooth and nail to get the dates correct so your pay is correct and your entire career isn't full of loving asterisks because everything is based on Date of Rank or commissioning date.

not caring here posted:I always figured being a recruiter was punishment so if they kicked you out of recruiting it'd be a reward From what I remember being sent to be a recruiter was pretty random. They usually picked more senior E-5s or new E-6s because they wanted someone young enough to be able to talk to high school students--but not so young that they'd to try to nail said high school students. I knew a few NCOs who actively tried to fail out of recruiting school and weren't allowed to. They were told that they could wipe their rear end with every exam and flip off anyone during a practical exercise but would still be passed and sent to a recruiting assignment. While it might sound good to be sent to a fairly cushy office job for a few years where you don't have to pick up pine cones for the Sergeant Major, the ONLY thing you're evaluated on is how many kids you get to sign up. Like someone said above, you're being graded on something over which you have very little control. --Another thing they told me is how they used to determine where they sent people. At one point someone would decide if you were "light green" or "dark green". Light green people went to places like Wisconsin, dark green ended up in inner cities.

M_Gargantua posted:It is. There’s no substantial living quarters. Even chiefs berthing is four sets of three rack stacks in a space the size of a closet. Submarines have less racks then crew. We often had to convert torpedo stows to racks to support embarked specialists. One half of the whole crew being awake at any given time is assumed so most of the crew is on a three section hot rack rotation. When you pull into overseas ports the squadron has already booked a bunch of hotel rooms since you can’t fit everyone aboard. I remember being upset when the boat list was posted in A school and it was all boomers. I was looking forward to selecting a fast attack boat in my home town. I love hearing homeless hot rack stories to remind me how wrong I was.

The only guy I know who was a recruiter loved it and has awards from good he was at tricking kids into joining the army which I think is appropriate for this thread on a couple levels.

Went to OTS with a guy whose last assignment was AF recruiting outta Boston. He pretty much hated every single day of it and was close to a mental breakdown. The Northeast isn't exactly full of poor, uneducated kids needing the military to save them. On top of that, he said the leadership was mostly toxic, they had no support staff (so they had to do everything), and it was a career blemish if you bombed at it.

Doesn't seem like AF recruiting would be that hard. Kids are getting kicked out of their parents' houses all the time for being losers.
