You guess? Have fun up there.

When you meet the RDC's run up to them and offer them a handshake to say hello and thanks for hosting you!

Remember, ears open, mouth shut and do what you are told when you are told to do it and how your were told to do it!

[VaBchMom]

I can just hear the RDC's saying "why you are so welcome. Is there anything in particular we can do for you to make your stay here more comfortable?"

[Shipe]

you guys are hilarious. haha

[Steven_MA]

Good luck now shipe. I'll be heading in as your heading out. See ya on the other side.

[yenner]

Best of luck an prayers as for all of our men and women serving.

Be sure to come back and give me a first hand acct of what RTC ws like! I'm jealous of you!

[Shipe]

you know that feeling where you're just waiting for the clock to roll over to the next minuet but it just seems to be taking forever. anyone who has worked a job where they had to use a timeclock to punch in/out knows what i'm talking about.

[DK3]

It will be here soon enough, don't rush it because once you are there, you are going to want to get the hell out of there!

When do you go to the hotel?

[sailor_pianist]

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I put the navy down when applying for a job. I put the pubic affairs office because I didn't know which other number to put. Will they be able to reach anyone for reference? When you put the military down for an employment application, who did you for them to contact?

[DK3]

It was alraedy hi-jacked. :)

I always put the LPO and the quarterdeck phone number, however, that was in the fleet, where I was actually known.

It's going to be hard to get a reference out of RTC because so many people go through it, no one is going to remember who you are, except when they were actually dealing with you.

[sailor_pianist]

Should I ask my recruiter, or is that too weird?

[DK3]

That would probably work! Although I'd find out how long he/she is going to be at that recruiting station!

[Shipe]

at the hotel right now...got some time to kill now hurray

[DK3]

Relax and chill....

[sailor_pianist]

Awww I'm so excited for him.

[SonNguyen]

good luck Shipe! Enjoy your stay! I'm very jealous right now haha, I have like one more year to wait, talk about punching the clock!

[sailor_pianist]

He's probably already at MEPS. He'll be there for another 5 or 6 hours before he heads to the airport or gets on the bus to Great Lakes.
