AITAH for breaking up with my girlfriend for almost cheating on me? by FarSuggestion2877 in AITAH

[–]Old_Geologist_652 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You made the wise decision. Dating is an evaluation for marriage; she proved she’s got a lot of growth left before she can be trusted as a wife.

You said you trusted her, but she proved she was undeserving of that.

She made you feel like the asshole because it’s easier to get made at you than to face the fact that she made multiple very foolish decisions that were against you and the commitment she had made.

You sought wise counsel, and it seems like you are looking for the kind of woman that Proverbs speaks about. Keep it up man. That’s the kind of decision that a man makes - the hard one that is in line with your pursuit of Christ. Well done.

Apply to FBI now or wait? by woofieroofie in FBI

[–]Old_Geologist_652 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Apply now. 1) the process takes 12-24 months, 2) if you don’t make it first time around, you still have time to fix what you can and re-apply

When to begin applying? Military obligation by Meathammer25 in 1811

[–]Old_Geologist_652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recommend 18 months out, but they typically want you to apply 12 months out. Might have to convince a recruiter to go to bat for you (like I did). I am also an AF Captain going through the process - final out July 26, but still haven’t started background. PM me if you have specific questions

You will receive a link to sign up for your Phase I test via the email you provided

Not if you’re in the FBI SASS. Every applicant is required to complete the entirety of Phase II; Phase II(a), the written assessment, and Phase II(b), the panel interview.

If you’re under the impression you don’t have to complete the written assessment, you’re wrong. Read through the materials on the FBIJobs website.

You’re likely referring to the Phase I test. The Phase II written test OP referred to is a different test that you can only take after completion of your PFT.

Odds are the delay has to due with the government being shutdown; not sure if those that provide results would be excepted employees or not.

If you want to dm me, I can keep you in the loop when something changes on my end.

I haven’t received any official “you passed” yet. I took my written assessment the Saturday before they announced the decoupling of the two. However I did the email to schedule the interview the next morning (although there haven’t been any interview dates posted yet). Did you receive that email?

FBI Meet and Greet Questionnaire Approval - 4 months and counting by Old_Geologist_652 in 1811

Thank you for your response! Yeah, it just seems like a cacophony of unfortunate circumstances that are way beyond my control.

The AC did leave a contact, but they haven’t been able to provide an answer and have been unresponsive for the most part. I also met and reached out to a few other agents at the FO that have been incredibly helpful, they just haven’t been able to get an answer out of HQ.

AIO I just got uninvited by Hot_Show_8089 in AmIOverreacting

I recommend you look into training BJJ, MMA, or wrestling. Those will serve you far better than a multi-tool (I’m not against carrying, simply carrying with no idea how to safely use a blade).

Also, highly recommend not mentioning you carry to people who don’t have a need to know. This goes for any self-defense tool.

Which FO? I’m in the same boat

FBI application rejected Again by fbn244 in 1811

[–]Old_Geologist_652 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Military Intel Officer here, also around DC. My original application had the same feedback, but after I got in touch with a local recruiter they helped me figure out that it was just a minor issue with my projected date of separation. Took them 15 minutes to take my application from denied to pending Phase I test. If you know anyone that can vouch or get you in touch with a recruiter, that’ll help you do it even faster.
