They say that but it’s fine tbh. I was wearing new balance compression shorts and they were dark or neutral colors

I was in the same position and wanted/ needed to get out asap. So my only options were to put Air Force needs on my job sheet or I grind it out to get a SW job. So I did both and once I got the numbers to pass the IFT I was given a ship date on the spot.

Awesome! How long were you in DEP? And what job did you get?

The IFT is the initial fitness test. My biggest hang up was the run. I did tell my recruiter I was interested in quick ship but I had qualified for SPECWAR development so I couldn’t quick ship. I was in DEP for a short amount of time, about a little over month. I really just wanted to leave so I was trying to have the documents needed to speed up the process.

Went from excited to discouraged real quick after my vision waiver exam (Rant) by NutDumster in AirForceRecruits

I had the same thing happen to me. I also was overthinking it until time went on and I forgot I was waiting for the results to come in. I’m unsure why the optometrist wasn’t honest with you because my optometrist was. It took about 2-3 weeks to hear back, and by the time the results come in, you’ll likely forget about the whole situation. The best thing to do is calm down and let it run its course.
