She plays rugby, is a teacher now, I'm a 'trying not to be overweight' military hopeful'. I figured she was right behind me.

At least she let me hide in her car.

Funny I had this discussion.

Last night, I went for a walk on a dimly lit trail with my ex-girlfriend.

Something started moving around in the bushes, then there was massive splashing under the small walking bridge we were on.

I started booting it out of the woods, was about a 2-minute run from the parking lot.

This was minutes after telling her if zombies came after us I was tripping her.

She wasn't impressed.

You know, She may not be impressed now but if they really do attack she won't have time to not be impressed with you..so..a lose now but later...a WIN!!!!  So..yeah!

 

[Mudshuvel]

Final, I like your train of thought, ahaha.

I highly suggest you don't tell her that train of thought..well..I mean you could..but I'm thinking you'd prefer to keep your body in one piece.

 

[Searyn]

it might put a new spin on the term "impact training"

So, I've been really busy the last week, however that has not stopped me from going to the gym. Finally started my couch to 5k regiment (thanks guys) and successfully completed week 1 day 1. By the end of it my chest was really tight, but I've been cutting back on the smoking and it was -5 out. I'm not even turning in my application til I can do 2.5km so wish me luck until week 5 which is the 2.5 km portion.

Congratulations man!  The more you do the better it'll get.  Just takes time~

I'm being the same as you, in the fact that I'm applying after I can run that 2.4km in the allotted time frame.

You never know Final, if you apply around the same time I do and our trades open up, we could end up huffing our way through BMQ together!

Never know, But it'd be cool.  I'm thinking of around December-January for applying (And going for Infantry).

 

[Mudshuvel]

Applying around the same time frame, told by my Recruiter that January would be preferred. Going for Aerospace Control Operator, ATIS Technician, Communication Research Operator or the last of my top 5 Plumbing or Refrigeration.

Crossing my fingers.

I heard from an ex-recruiter that openings for AC Op are rare, anyone care to share some insight/experience with that?

Current job changes have forced me to expedite my process. Putting the necessary docs in sooner via the Online Application to get the ball rolling. I haven't lost my job, but like a lot of other civvie jobs, recession or whatever they are calling it is turning the company I work for upside down. Stay tuned.

Hi
I read your post,and woundring why did you choose AC operator not AEC officer,and do you think that there is a big difference between them,

One is a NCM and the other is an officer.  He is not applying to become an officer.

You're doing great, keep up the good work. I'm not sure how fast you're going to get in, because this time of year tends to be pretty slow. Good luck on your application!
