MEPS tomorrow

[decay]

that's a good job.

as previously stated, be prepared to lie your ass off. and i hope you're not colorblind. if you are, that'll take some serious maneuvering to get around down the road.

I'm going to the Air Force to be a Combat Controller

Cool man, so uh... I guess I'll keep your e30 till you get back....

[euroshark]

The only sucky part is when you have to bend over and spread your cheeks for them to inspect your starfish.

Though for some of you this might not be anything new.

Needless to say, I wasn't accepted for use in the CO National Guard... Bad attitude.

I believe they are also FAA qualified air traffic controllers.

I've always wanted to be an air traffic controller. I even have a ATC simulator program - it's geeky fun.

Lol, thats a good job. I would def consider doing it.

My uncles farm is somehow registered with the FAA as an airstrip, so on Microsoft Flight sim, you can actually land at a place called "Deeds field". Pretty funny because its a soybean field.

just make sure you dont party too hard the night in the hotel. I was with my buddy smoking some crazy stuff the night before--- and had NO idea there was a drug test the next morning.------------
somehow I still passed----true story

BTW the day is really boring and the duck walk was tons of fun.

[a_thomasmr23]

i did MEPS on my b-day i can think of a host of better ways to spend the day

[decay]

they actually breathalyzed us the morning after the first time we stayed at the hotel, in addition to the drug test. anything above .000 and you would have gotten sent home. good thing i didn't bring my listerine with me.

the night before we flew out to basic was another matter. if you don't get laid then, you're not trying.

I found more humor in the guys who failed or felt good that they could work on tanks with their 31.

I had a rather pleasant experience going through MEPS way back when. The gayest part about it was when they send you into this room with some old white dude sitting in a chair. He will make you bend over and poke his finger in ur stinkhole. Okay, I don't really remember if he did all that, but I do remember my pants dropping. I think they did the cup the balls and cough thing. I'm not sure, it was so long ago, the repressed memories were put away in that box for a reason.

I went through years ago, and ran into the old white dude too. He told me to drop my pants, and reluctantly I did so. I cringed as he coddled my cods, then told me to turn my head and cough. In the absurdity of the moment, I guess my nerves got the better of me and instead of a cough, it came out as a laugh. The old man didn't think it was funny, but it couldn't be stopped. So he told me to look the other way and cough again, this time it was worse, it really burst out as a pretty good laugh, and to make it worse, all the guys behind me started laughing too, like when you're in church or at a funeral or in a big lecture and you know you're not supposed to laugh. This really pissed the old dude off and he barked something about none of this being funny, and he rushed me on out and yelled next.

Don't laugh when he carresses your balls.

[silversleeper]

Don't laugh when he carresses your balls.

:rofl:

I know this all too well. The cold, latex covered fingers of the old man only induced the tickling sensation which caused me to have a similar reaction.

I remember hearing stories of guys saying they farted in the mans face, but I don't know if any of that was true. I do recall sitting in the room waiting to be called in and looking around at all of the recruits downing their gallon sized jugs of water.

its fun bending over spreading your asshole for them,, its like the pay off for dealing with retards all day and showing them your red EYE!
