@renovatedkitchen Neat! (also, not sure if Top Gun or Archer reference)
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 17:40:08 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Definitely Top Gun. Haven't seen Archer yet
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 17:41:52 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@renovatedkitchen Both are quite good. Archer is certainly an adult show, and content wise, very terrible. I felt like a bad person laughing at it many times.

@xeleanorxrigbyx my cousin tries t convince me to watch it. I want to now, but it will add to my distractions :c

@renovatedkitchen I'm guessing he meant all of the recruiting sites. :)
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 18:25:21 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx ah. Makes more sense then
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 18:32:48 UTC from StatusNet iPhone -
@xeleanorxrigbyx actually, would you know what I should do/look like when I apply?
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 18:35:25 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@renovatedkitchen Well, you don't need a suit or anything, but I would be dressed nicely (polo/slacks type bit). Obviously be respectful, and be sure to ask any questions you have. Most of the recruiters I've met are pretty relaxed people.

@xeleanorxrigbyx sweet. Thanks :) I'm sure they know that new people will be nervous too :P I'm so happy to do it and nervous!
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 18:58:24 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@renovatedkitchen They do. :) Try to get your facts in order before you go though. If they're like US recruiters, they have a monthly quota to fill and some of them lie. So have your ducks in a row before you head in.

@xeleanorxrigbyx darn. That sounds intense. I've been reading through and through about it. I don't care about pay and stuff as long as its enough to keep me alive and support my car. I feel like I'm going to walk in and say "give me an application"
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:01:04 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@renovatedkitchen So long as you know what you want and stick to your guns you'll be fine. :)
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:04:55 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx thanks for the pointers :) it will be great. Going to go this Saturday to avoid that weekday rush hour
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:12:54 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@renovatedkitchen Sounds like a plan. :) Best of luck! What're you going for?
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:22:43 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Pilot. Apparently VERY few actually get in, and to become a fighter pilot is more of a dream than a reality but I'm going to give it a go. Been reading this guys blog. http://frombootcamptoflying.blogspot.ca/2008/11/signup-process.html
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:28:27 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen Good job. :) Go for it with all you've got. and the blog seems like a good resource. Just remember us little people on the ground when you're a big bad pilot. :)
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 19:29:49 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I'm doing this partly for all those little people on the ground, so that they can live their peaceful lives and thrive

@renovatedkitchen Holy crap, do you have to go to all nine of them?!
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 17:58:09 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Archer episodes?
Thursday, 21-Feb-13 18:09:41 UTC from StatusNet iPhone -
@redenchilada or recruiting places? Not all, but one that is deep in the city. Then later I have to drive half way across the province to do my tests.
