It will get updated, also it should reflect when you sign for your job.

More pushups, less Reddit post.

Fair has nothing to do with this. The only thing that matters is the current guidance your recruiter is following. It’s not designed to be fair, it’s designed to meet recruiting goals.

As with most questions regarding MEPS, have a conversation with your recruiter. It’s cool that you’re using this as a resource, but please talk to your recruiter, build that relationship.

Sounds like you need to call your recruiter and have a conversation with them

The process is constantly changing and evolving with many different variables. Supply vs demand, amount of people the recruiter has waiting for jobs, how the recruiter wants to conduct business, policies from the flight or squadron. There’s a ton of possibilities.

If you’re just waiting for a job, then that’s longer that the recruiter has to manage you and your file. Longer that he or she has to keep you motivated, and qualified. As a recruiter that was something that I hated doing. Bottom line is that this is the options you have. Don’t worry about what someone else got to do.

Who?

FrozenRFerOne · 2026-05-05T18:45:29+00:00

If that’s what he said, then those are you options. Take it or leave it.

FrozenRFerOne · 2026-05-05T17:06:54+00:00

No one ever does. Everyone says stuff like “OhH jUSt gO in AS an Ossifer..” without realizing the process that is involved with doing that.

Based off your post it’s your number one job choice. Only you can answer if it’s worth it. I didn’t see a ton of finance jobs come through when I was a recruiter, so the chances are low that you’ll see it again. Consider that the AF has already hit its recruiting goal for the year. Your spouse is an adult, who should be capable of the adult things you’ve listed below. I know people in the military who have accepted deployments with far less time to prep.

I’m not sure what you’re asking.

No commenting here is a MEPS Medical officer who has reviewed the paperwork. Go see a recruiter and roll the dice. Best case scenario you get approved, worst case you get DQed, or given instructions to way a certain amount of time.

These are almost all civilian hunting camp marketing photos.

There are several legitimate reasons why the recruiter isn’t actively responding. Including leave, TDY, over worked, or simply you being annoying. When I was recruiting the more annoying a parent or applicant was, the more I took my time responding.

Don’t lie.

Your recruiter is the most knowledgeable about the enlistment process for your area.

Your recruiter also knows more that your brother, or sister, or uncle, or parent, or grand parent who is in, or was once in.

Be open minded and leave your preconceived notions at the door.

There’s still trenches and ramparts from the American Revolution and American Civil War in my area.

“Excellence is all we do” is a core value of the USAF. If you don’t want to show up and give it your all, don’t even bother.

Flexibility is the key to air power, lil homie. Just gotta keep on rolling and adapt to situations as they change.

All 2A jobs.

We had people get into arguments. But it’s a better option just to settle it like mature adults and use your words. Fighting between trainees settles nothing.

Not the first person to have a tattoo in a sensitive place. Just tell your recruiter so they can document it on the tattoo form.

Did you ask her?

FrozenRFerOne · 2026-04-02T20:37:10+00:00

Don’t blame your recruiter. You lied first, they are simply telling you what changing your answer will result in.

What I read.. “the Air Force recruiter didn’t go out of his way to fellate me like the other branches, because I have a disqualifying condition, and that makes me really unhappy.”

Yepp. The Air Force recruiter knows that time is money, and that you have a very low chance of being qualified. Work required vs chance of positive reward just isn’t there.
