Well the problem is its not available, and he said its not likely to become available any time soon, plus i've already gone through MEPS, so i think it's too late now, im just happy i get airborne and a chance to prove myself in rasp. I just kind of hope halfway through the contract i'd be able to reclass. but it'd be a huge honor to be in the 75th either way.
Until you go to bootcamp you don't have to listen to what your recruiter says. You can say if you don't get a 11x Opt 40, you'll talk to other recruiters. I wouldn't want to be stuck in a job I didn't enjoy for 4 years.
I aprreciate your advice and i will talk to my recruiter some more about it, but it's not a huge deal to me, either way i'd be serving my country, and thats something i can be proud about, im mostly curious to find out the differences between a normal cook and one in the 75th, as far as day to day life goes.
There's gotta be more to it than that though? Would they really waste all that time and effort training you just to have you do that? What do they do when they aren't counting people?
Why did you pick 92G in the first place?
It started with me asking for 11x opt 40, he said its not possible, so i said what about 11b with airborne and then later trying to get into rasp? He said chances are slim and theres no way to get you airborne in your 11b contract, so i settled on going 92g opt 40 for the airborne and rasp then later reclassing.
I would tell your recruiter that if he can't get you a 11x opt.40 or 11x opt. 4 your talking to other recruiters. He's just trying to get his numbers. Don't let him push you around. Tell him what you want and, if he can't give it to you talk to the other branches.
I saw his computer though, it's just not available. And he said theyre very few and very far inbetween, so im not sure if tslking to another recruiter eould make a difference, ive been deadset on being a ranger for a long time so i dont know about other branches, i'd be willing to do the cook job even for years, i mean work is work, if in the end i can reclass to what i want i'd be happy.
Is cook the only Option 40 available?
When you aren't counting people you'll be washing dishes, maybe boiling eggs, possibly packing speedballs with MREs and water...
