So it's official the army now says that I am mentally smart enough to do the job I have been doing since the past year. Why did they say I wasn't able to do it? Well because my ASVAB test scores were too low by about 20 points. So I retook the test and got my scores up a maximum of 30 points. Yes that's right I am able to go to Ft. Meade Maryland and party my socks off for 7 months straight. =P | |||

Sounds like fun... though I do think it is stupid that they let a test score govern your job when you have already proven you can do it. | |||

Free healthcare is always fun. I want free healthcare.
But yeah, it seems more and more than on the job training doesn't matter for shit. You could have done a job for over a decade, been amazing at it and had perfect references, and they will still hire a grad fresh out of school over you because they have a degree. On the flip side, a lot of other jobs seem to expect you to have both... and how do you get the experience if no one will hire you because you don't have experience? |
