Nope. There wasn't an officer recruiter at station I called. So he offered to forward my information, and then told me about OTS being backed up, I declined after I heard about the two year wait.

I may be the .01% or whatever but I was in your same situation - had my degree, wanted to commission, but didn't like the timeline/chances of being accepted, so I just enlisted and commissioned 4 years later.

The bottom line for me was that my life sucked enough that enlisting was still better career progression than remaining in my worthless food service job.

And I wouldn't trade that enlisted tour for anything.

God dammit, STRATCOM: https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/11/18/report-us-nuclear-general-says-would-resist-illegal-trump-strike-order/23281804/

"As head of STRATCOM, I provide advice to the president, he will tell me what to do," he said.

"And if it's illegal, guess what's going to happen? I'm going to say, 'Mr. President, that's illegal.' And guess what he's going to do? He's going to say, 'What would be legal?' And we'll come up (with) options, with a mix of capabilities to respond to whatever the situation is, and that's the way it works. It's not that complicated."

No, you idiot. He's going to say "YOU'RE FIRED" and find a subordinate who'll gleefully nuke Hillary Clinton's house when you tell him the order is illegal.

we don't get a lot of training on "LOAC" or the "Geneva Conventions" in AFGSC, go figure
