Interviews

Apparently, I suck at them. I was jittery and kept fiddling with my hands. Upside was that I didn’t have an asthma attack during my interview. Luckily, before my interview, I had great company with me, so I was relatively calm than I expected. Overall, I think I did okay. Okay enough to become an officer? I don’t know. But we’ll find out on May 11th...

SCREAMING

My interview is tomorrow and I really want the officer position, but I’m really nervous and I’m afraid of getting an asthma attack while in there. I’m just shaking just thinking about it, but hopefully I’ll do well and well... hopefully don’t stop breathing.

“LEFT--”

When you give up on putting on your ranks.

Me: "Well, zip-ups aren't required today, but it will be cold. I'll only need to take it off for inspection anyways. Preparedness is key!"

Me: *Sees that I haven't put on my ranks for my zip-up.*

Me: "Well, zip-ups aren't required today. I guess I'll freeze to death instead."

I'm head of the public affairs section in my program which meant that a portion of my job would be making a newsletter every month. I'm forced to produce articles about events that my battalion does. Now trust me, I fucking love to write. I love the English language. I love poetry and prose. The fact that I'm forced to write these articles practically smothers my way of writing. Instead of allowing me to have the freedom of capturing an audience, it focuses on purely dumping boring factual sentences. I absolutely hate it.

I love the program but you will regret the day joining any special teams omfg. I have to do a 90 question quiz in 45 minutes
