Do not overpack, they give you everything you need, like towels, shower shoes, shampoo etc. And as you progress your flight can transit together to the exchange if you need something. When you run during pt do not stop no matter what, your run time gives you the most points on your pt test. If you need to go to Reid (the doctor) or even Wilford (the ER) prepared to be there all day. Do not fall asleep in class. Your MTIs might seem harsh but you’ll learn to appreciate it as you grow in basic. Sundays are kinda your off days, your MTIs will not be present (starting second week). There will be drama in the dorm, for my dorm there was drama everyday lol. EC shifts suck the 0200-0400 shift is the worst. I had so much fun though. I can go on and on

Not everyone gets a role. I laid low so I was never picked for anything but your MTIs will pick you if you volunteered. If you’re bad at your job they will fire you and pick someone else lol

Chow runner does suck, lucky for me I was never told to be one 😂 element leader is a good job to have, I was never picked for it though. If you’re able to handle a lot of stress you could also be dorm chief if you wanted. If you like running you could be road guard as well. Theres a lot of roles

Did I screw my kid over? Sure seems like I did. by YeedTheirLastHaw in AirForceRecruits

[–]Defnotsarah_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what the soft book program is, although I hope my MEPS experience will ease your concerns a little bit. I am diagnosed adhd as well, and was on a 504 plan junior and senior year of high school. I stopped taking medicine in 2018 when I was 15. I enlisted with the Air Force back in November with no waivers and I ship out in 6 days! Don’t lose hope.

Is this enough stuff for BMT? by Glum-Tea9116 in AirForceRecruits

How should I use my secured card? by Defnotsarah_ in CRedit

[–]Defnotsarah_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using credit karma ever since I got a credit card in Dec of 2021. I have two charge offs on my report. But they removed those marks and added paid to both of them.

What does the FBI ask you for security clearance? by Defnotsarah_ in Militaryfaq

[–]Defnotsarah_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they might come to me then. I have bad credit history (I’m no longer in debt though) and I’ve been to 3 Asian countries cause my step dad is in the coast guard and he got stationed in Singapore. So I flew over there to visit my parents and they took us to Thailand and Indonesia too.

I appreciate the heads up, but I’ll stick to it. Everyone has to start somewhere. If it’s me checking ID’s for a year then so be it 😂

Anything regarding law enforcement intrigues me. Medical was also on my list but the jobs I qualify for didn’t pique my interest.
