Squall
Go Navy, Go Big Red
Hey all. I have a conundrum.
I graduated from The University of Nebraska in December 2008, and I foolishly thought that I would either be A) In OCS or B) Denied at this point, allowing me to make a decision on my future as a teacher.
On February 11, my Recruiter called me after being Pro-rec'ed about a week before hand, telling me that there was a bad Date of Birth on one of my forms, and that it would delay my entry into OCS at least one month after correctional paperwork was sent in.
Both my wife and I are without insurance, and I am running out of money to provide for us and our son with. To top that off, I got sick about three weeks ago and cannot afford to go to the clinic, and now my Physical Training schedule has gone soft because of it. If I can just get a date, I can let banks/loan companies/friends know just how long it will take before my wife can pay them back and get some antibiotics, but right now, my life is on hold and I just can't seem to get Recruiting Chief/higher ups/ANYONE to give me a solid Y/N or when I would even receive such an answer.
Has anyone else gotten a bad signature delay? Just how much longer am I going to wait? No one wants to hire me because I tell them I have a possible commitment to the Navy, so further employment and a second job is almost slim to none chance. I can't apply as a teacher because I don't have a teaching license because it costs 80 bucks that I can't spare.
Looking back on it, this post sounds very whiny, and I hope it doesn't come off as such. I'm just frustrated to the edge of my wit, and I want to know ANYTHING about what's going on!
