i placed 3 little red flags in my mind as they came along about the course of a few days. ill list them now
flag one: harrasment by phone. they know im in school, they know i have classes, and they know im not allowed to answer said phone in class but they call anyways for a question i forgot because it took a week to respond... whoopy
flag 2: oh joy, nobody told me this. apperently, to even be considered for army training and work i am required to have a high school diploma. nobody told me of this, or any other special requirements (fafsa test or whatever) that must be fulfilled
flag three: last strike. i told them i was considering army work, not completely sure yet but thats why i went in for some info. my friend today told me, quote "you know sergent ___(name forgoten)? he asked if i knew you, and said tell matt to get his ass in here asap" ok, am i the only one that sees that as completely rude? they think im ready to leap and look at the same time
im not sure how you see all this, but it went from simple information to "you are joining if it kills us" to me... thoughts,opinions?

yeah, thats why i might walk in there, stare the recruiter in the eyes and say "wanted to see me?" when he says "yes", ill reply with "F*** you" and leave... sound like a plan? lol
