I do have a record showing the difficulties I have had. I have numerous medical visits for things that should have been done in one visit. Every time I talk to someone, they always apologize and say this should have been done a year ago. My recruiter is very careful not to make any promises though. He rarely gives hard dates and says stuff like usually it takes X number of days, or if everything moves along, it will be done this date. I will CC his CO though just in case he is not aware.

I just finished a phone interview for a flying job and they said I would have to sign a 1 year contract. I didn’t want to ask what the penalties would be for breaking it because I at least wanted a chance at getting the job. With my luck, the moment I sign the contract my recruiter will tell me it is time to ship off to OTS. If that is the case, they should understand because the chief pilot and assistant chief pilot are both USAF pilots with over 20 years of service.
