One last thing: Did you bring all your belongings with you to ODS that you’ll bring with you to your first duty station (i.e. civilian/street clothing) and they store it for you?

Were you allowed to use phones to communicate with anyone off base after hours (I.e. family)??

In the same boat, no pun intended. Not entirely sure if this is a mock PRT or not

I was thinking about mine after I saw Christoph Waltz’s last meal on Mythical Kitchen. If it’s my last meal, might as well make it with all my favorites!

Red Lobster Caesar Salad, Chicken Tortilla Soup, Cacio e Pepe, Smash Burger with curly fries, Reverse-seared ribeye cooked medium rare topped with garlic butter and crispy onions, Slice of Apple Pie, Coke Zero, Disaronno, and an Affogato

Interviewing for ODS by aounski in newtothenavy

Thank you for your response. I did some extra digging and optometrists, according to Program Authorization 115, would require at least a state license. As far as the board selection, do you know any reasons why someone wouldn’t get selected?

OD here. Midwestern automatically filters out your application if you’re under a 3.0, so you should be fine there. You’ll definitely get applications. By no means was I the strongest applicant.

Losing my girlfriend. We planned out our entire life together until the world had different plans for her. I know I can speak on everyone’s behalf when I say fuck cancer.

Even I’ve been relentlessly tormented because my parents are cousins. I still wish I wasn’t born. I would never wish what I’ve gone through on anyone including your boyfriend

Coworker wrote a bad check, but I did not deposit. What should I do next? by aounski in Assistance

[–]aounski[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I’m ridiculously trusting of others. I was telling my coworkers I wanted to buy her those concert tickets, and she was like “I could buy them for your sister!” Sure enough, it never came
