Hi I'm new here and just wanting to get some tips from some more experienced people here on how to deal with this situation I have.
I enrolled to be in the primary reserves starting on January 29th and finished everything from aptitude to PT by around April 27th.
Then after that I continuously called the recruiter to ask if he's recieved my file yet and each time he's told me that it hasn't been sent yet and he'll look into it. Well 3 days ago he told me that when he called the recruitment centre they told him to tell me "To make another appointment to redo my PT". Now I passed my PT the first time and was like "Ok I guess I'll do it again"
Then when I called the recruitment centre to schedule my PT they told me that since I already passed my first PT on april its good for another 6 months and that I don't have to do it again, so today I called the recruiter again and told him this. He said that he'll bring this up with his captain and basically ask "What the hell is going on".
Now I hoped to get into the programs for my reserve thing by September 29th, but this seemed impossible now, so then I hoped for the next date which is October 24th.
Then the recruiter told me that Oct 24th is also impossible since there are 14 other people's files which he recieved already and that my best hope would be to wait until November....
This kinda gave me the dagger in guts feeling which brought me very low. I just accepted what the recruiter told me and now I'm just waiting to pass time and see whats up with all this mess in my aplication.
So has anyone else had a simular problem? It has been like 5 months since I've completed everything and all and it's starting to become discouraging to me.
I've been on the brink of considering giving up on trying to join the reserves because of all this hassle, but for some reason theres a little bit of me inside that keeps telling me to just wait it out and get into the job that I really want to do. This hasn't helped with the fact that my mother yells at me nearly everyday that I'm a lazy teenager who's too lazy to find a job since most of my friends already got a part time job at places like McDonalds and NoFrills. My mom keeps saying things like "Your so lazy, all your friends can get jobs so easily at McDonalds and you sit on your ass everyday waiting for this stupid job".
Yea.. all I'm really looking for is just someone to talk to and help me out here with some tips. Thanks for listening.
