I came across this blogring in June 2007. Alot of what I read from other recruiters mirrored how I felt being out there. I say "out there" as I am no longer apart of that...society. I had just reenlisted for a new assignment. My final true reenlistment, as my next one I go "indef". I don't even know where to start. I just want to get it all down.
I came to recruiting with a bright and happy demeanor, one which was quickly lost. I saw a side of the military that I never knew existed, one I wish I could forget and know I never will. I almost lost the most important people in my life. I was so driven, so focused, always looking for that next contract, I forgot to remember them. My daughter grew up before my closed eyes. My husband, my strong and incredible husband, he stayed through 3 years, 2 months and 2 days of the worst assignment I have known in the 10 years I have been in.
Since I left recruiting, I have changed. I am no longer jumpy when the phone rings. I spend time...lots of time with my family. We have dinner together. I have seen more of them in the last 6 months than my whole time on recruiting. I sleep at night. I lost weight. I smile because I am happy, not because I have to. Did I mention Germany is beautiful in the fall? I love my unit. I love my job. I love the fact that I have soldiers again. I go to ranges. I pull duty. I get 3 and 4 day weekends every month.
It has been awesome to read that I am not alone. No matter what anyone ever said, I knew that alot of what went on in that world was wrong. Will it ever change? Who knows. I think that getting rid of the super recruiter mentality is a big step forward. The "team concept" will be, IMHO, a Very Good Thing for recruiting. I know that the majority of the recruiters who were in my station (LP) are gone. There are 2 left along with the SC. I hope that they are doing well.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Most all tangible memories of that time have been discarded. I tossed all of my badges before I moved. The last one I wore on my uniform...I took off as I was driving back from MEPS the day I outprocessed. I threw it out the car window at about 90 mph.
The ring, however, I wear. I don't wear it to show off. I am a girl, I do like pretty things, especially little golden sparkly baubles that adorn my fingers. This ring, however, is more than that. This ring symbolizes things lost, things gained, tears, trials and tribulations.
I wear the ring as a badge of honor. I survived recruiting.

Ninja AFK'd~~
OMG so been long time no blog -- NO TIME!!!
Seems like everytime I try to get one I get distracted by work...how tacky.
So I got told that I not only got my ring but OMG I got promoted!!!
I think that we are going ot box this month. Too many fell through - I had a GA ready to rock and then he calls nad says he "forgot" he had another scholarship. How do you forget that? So I told him I understand that he may not be ready right now to be a soldier to step up and serve...wow that put him on the spot a littloe and he admitted that he was scared. I did the 3 "F"s and still no avail. Ah is ok I guess I wasn't really ocunting on him anyhow. I had my 2 lined up to drop the 1st week of the new RCM next week but have to burn one to cover down on another guy. Tired.

Hiccup
I rolled a nut. Big fat nut. I have alot of stuff working it just isn't falling right now. Guy who apparently likes the herb a little too much. Guy who needs to lose 1%. Another who needs to lose 2%. A Bravo & 2 Alphas. /sigh.
I did, however manage to ding my cleric 64 and my ranger 71. That is what keeps me really sane. That and my family. They are gone for a few days, visiting Grandma & fishing. It has been weird coming home and having nothing to talk to but the cats. Too quiet.
I took the dep loss.
I was sad.
She had so much ahead of her and now...she has no clue what to do. Influencers. They suck.
On a better note, I heard from Mr. Williams...pardon me PVT Williams. He is in Airborne school. That brightened my day. He still says "Yes Ma'am". I like him. He will go far. Grats PVT Williams. I am proud of you.

excited!!
So, I am about to write a contract that I have been waiting to write since I came out her. My husband. No, I am not so desparate for a contract to dip into family. He is PS, wants back in. Now that I am on orders, we are working to get him in and maybe...hopefully...to my same duty assignment. Cross your fingers the USAREC Gods allow the waiver to go through. I cannot wait!! I loved being dual military it was awesome. I did, however, tell the applicant that he had better ship or he would be a single soldier! I wonder if the prohibited statement applies here?

Mr. Williams
My favorite part of this job is when they come back and say "Thanks". No matter how ugly the world is to me (yeah I am the one who told the President to start operations in Iraq...), having a soldier come in my office and say "Thank SGT, I appreciate..." I think that is way too cool.
Take for instance Mr. Williams. This kid was 17 the day he tested for me. Had a GED. Mom was a crack whore somewhere and father non-existent. He was on a bad road, but through a little encouragement, he is now about to be a double stacked gun bunny. Cool. He is so proud of himself, stands up a little taller, smiles more often. THAT is why I do this job to the best of my ability. Because of him and all the other Mr. Williams that I meet.

Pending DEP losses
I have been here in the 7th realm of hell (aka USAREC) since Jan 05. Some days are good, some are better, then there are some that blow me away.
I enlisted a girl on the 23rd of May. She was excited, I was excited, it was an exciting day. Chaplain's assistant, 2 years. Good job, short term contract, enough to get her feet wet and go on or whatever she wanted. SHE called ME to enlist. I have known her for about 8 months, her fiancee is one of my Future Soldiers.
Then today I get a letter faxed to me from MEPS. Dated the day before the FSP orientation. Quoted word for word from a website I prefer not to list. I just don't understand. I have been nothing but honest and straightforward with her and she goes and sends me a damn letter? She does not even have the courage, the respect, to call me and say "Hey, SGT, I really am having second thoughts here".

WTF OVER?
OK so I am a little late starting this...I have been out here for 2.5 years. I have seen stuff out here that I never thought I would. I thought that leadership understood both parts of the NCO Creed...accomplishment of the mission and the welfare of my soldiers. USAREC fails to balance the 2.
Example:
A soldier's wife is pregnant. She has to have a C-section. They already have a 4 year old. The soldier requested 14 days of leave to take care of his wife (major surgery), newborn and the 4 year old. Guess what? DENIED. Make other arraignments. WTF? I say again...WTF?
How in the hell can they get away with that? The person telling the recruiter this? Yeah, he took emergency leave when his wife left him. He goes home on a regular basis because he has to take care of his kids. I don't get it. The mentality here is insane.
