ASVABS
i just took the ASVABs which are kind of like the SATs but for the military. I got an 86 on the sample test and the sample test was and is alot harder than the actual test but some how i managed to get an 80 on the ASVAB. I was disappointed but too much. There was one kid who i felt bad for because he got a 56 and wanted to become a ranger, he was sulking around the building, poor guy. I met alot of interesting people, including a recruiter that said she used to be in MI (military intelligence), she also said that Area 51 really does exist along with Hangar 18, but none of that alien crap that hippies thought happened actually happened.

Don't be too upset, an 80 is a fantastic score. You qualify for advanced programs. And a 56 is not that bad either. Hell the average is about a 47 or so... I once had a guy take it and score a 7.

And yes Area 51 is real. It's not called that though, it's the Groom Dry Lake Research Facility.

I personally got a 98 on the ASVAB (Not bragging, just sharing).
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.

Nice
I only took the sample and I got an 87 on it. I got sick of the recruiters though and basically had to get my guidance counselor to call them haha. I had Army, Navy, and Marine recruiters all following me around and calling me and shit. So annoying how much they harass you haha.

I once had a Marine Recruiter chase me through my school. I have army recruiters calling me constantly now, and I am active duty Navy... They are trying to sell me on the Blue to Green program.

It really sounds like work you have to be cut out for. Most people couldn't be a recruiter for anything.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high

Yeah, after I got to recruiter school, I quickly negotiated my way out.

Yeah, plus being a recruiter sucks.
You have the quotas to meet, and how well you do at those depends on how you do with promotions and such. I hate them, but they do have a lot to lose (not a terrible lot, but I digress).

And Blue to Green couldn't buy me...I like blue much better. What is the Marine colour, red/gold?
