Month: April 2004

  • Yea, today was a good day! We made our mission for the month! that is always a great feeling. I was actually pretty happy today cuz this guy I put in the Navy today was pretty cool.. His father originally wanted him to join the Navy but he wanted to join the AF... His twin sis is in the AF so that is completely understandable. He just couldn't get a job that he wanted guaranteed to him so he came and saw me. He ended up getting a job on contract with us and is happy w/it.! He's a great kid and I hope he enjoys his journey with the navy. I like helping people out that need just a lil bit of direction. Recruiting isn't quite the job that I would do for more than the allotted time I have to. It's not like selling a product that you buy once and if ya don't like it ....oh well... SO, for me I take it pretty serious and don't like to B.S anyone.. I just don't find a need in being a shady recruiter. I feel really bad for this one guy cuz he really really wants to join but he can't pass the asvab, and I see his passion to join.. That's the down side of recruiting too. I hate seeing people who are really good people and want to better themselves and do something for their country but for some reason if it's not a medical problem or educational problem, they can't join...


    Anyhow, other than work, I gotta a 3day weekend so I am happy. I am gonna go out on my friend's boat tomorrow out on the intercoastal! Actually, my station which consists of just one other recruiter and the recruiter in charge & me ofcourse, are all going out on the boat. I think I may try wakeboarding again... I just can't seem to get up out of the water!! lol... I did like once for like all about 5 sec before I just fell back into the water! I just can't seem to get into the right position to where I am angles to the side ! crazy i tell ya!  Then tomorrow night we are going to go to a MARLINS VS ATLANTA BRAVES babeball game. We just found out all their games are free to military, close family members ! So off we go to that! GO MARLINS!  Actually, I am not that huge of a fan of baseball, i prefer, football and like to watch live hockey games (they are always fun to watch).... But hey, I can sacrifice! lol..


    well, I am about to watch Intolerable Cruelty and SWAT ! I watched Cheaper by the Dozent he other night! that was a good movie! Now I know where my boyfriend gets the whole lets have 12 children thing from! yea, ok....YOU can have 12 kids ...is what I tell him! lol.. Anyhoo, I will talk to you all laterz! have a nice one! I'm outta here!

  • A wish a mutha fucker would..............tell me that I can have the one open seat for the month for females and then let another recruiter put in a female!!!!!!!!!!! 


    I know I know....work work work.... Being a Navy recruiter isn't all that easy when our retention level is the highest of all services and the Navy wants QUALITY people...Seems like these days everyone thinks the Military itself will take anyone!! NOT the NAVY BABY!!!!! This morning I got this loser call me and tell me that he wants to join the navy but has 2 felony charges... #1...possession of Marijuana OVER 25grms....#2...possession of coccaine...OVER 25grms...... When he was 18yrs old..;now is 23yrs old and needs money and a life! lol....Should of thought of that when you were 18!!! I know we all do stupid things and shit but that wasn't the point....the point is...HE tried to make me feel guilty by telling me that ..he used to be a big time drug dealer and that is why he got em 2 felony charges...and that if we didn't let him join...He was gonna go back out and start selling drugs again and to all the kids in town.... that he wasn't gonna straighten out his life cuz he was in desperate need of money, had a baby on the way and blazaye, blazaye......I said ok.... and... if you wanna fuck up your life and be a shitty father to your soon to be child...more power to ya.... then I told him to go call the army cuz they can take alot of people we can't.....(no offense to any of you soldiers, got much respect for you all and what you do for the country)....  First off, I don't know the mofo so why the fuck would I care what he does....2nd...I have no sympathy for anyone who can't help themselves..... I wasn't no angel growing up, didn't have it easy either  but I was able to turn my life around and make ends meet ALL BY MYSELF... It's ignorant people like that...that get on my nerves!  And all these people who think that they can drop outta high school, get a GED and get in trouble in the law and all of a sudden wanna join the navy... Yea, back in the day .....they could...now...shit's changing...the navy wants all these quality people...well at least in south florida! Maybe not in bumfuck egypt....I know some states still can put in people with GED'S and shit but not Miami District!  The navy is getting more technical and better...


    Ok...enough about work... I was looking on line for Exadrine W/Ephedra and NOPE...No joy!!!! I was told about 11mos ago they stopped selling products w/ephedra then the other day when I was at GNC, the guy told me that it WAS still being sold online but as of the 12th of this month it has been banned! That they no longer sell them even on line!!! WTF!!! How come no one ever told me that?!!! lol... I am so outta the loop man!  I guess that is what I get for being stationed on a Desert Island (Bahrain) for a year and not paying attention to the world....instead just working and Drinking !!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD TIMES, GOOD TIMES!!! I swear every moment I wasn't working or sleeping I was drinking my ass off!!! Damn sailors! Can a mutha fucker get a WHOO-WOO.......


    Aight...I'm outta here!! Catch ya'll on the flip side!!!


     

  • Same ole thang, just a different day!!!!


    Spent some time at the good ole dentist!!! whoo-hoo!! NOT!! But my tooth is fixed and it looks nice!


    Just chillin now. Waiting for my boyfriend to wake up so I can talk to him since he is stationed in bahrain right now! Other than that.......just wanted to write a few sentences to my oh how exciting page! lol..


     

  • Oh shit, yesterday evening I bought a GYRO and some mozzarella sticks from Miami Subs, well...I ate the cheese sticks and totally forgot about the gyro!!! I just saw the bag and realized that I left it in the bag on the floor by my computer desk!!! BLARG!!!!!  Gotta go get some string cheese!! I love string cheese!!! oh and a measuring cup so I can actually cook some food and not worry about it turning out all fucked up!! lol...

  • What a day! Gotta love to come home to a nice peaceful place! Today was a more productive day for me. Spent most of my day out making myself known in the area! lol.. It was great. See, I am a lil shy when it comes to just walkin up to people! lol...All my friends don't think I am shy but that's because once I know you..... i don't shut up! Most of my friends have met me at party's when I have been drinking.......when I get a lil bit of alcohol in me.... there ain't nothing shy about me. So....when it comes to my work, I have to walk up to people and let them know who I am without a drink! lol....I am getting it now... I just need a lil boost of motivation and I am on a roll! For those who read my entries, if you have any suggestions to how I can overcome being shy when it comes to doing classroom presentations and walking up to people, please let me know! If I could just get over that hump, I think I would be very successful recruiter! Not that I am not one now, but I know I can do better. At least I don't lie or mislead people who are interested in the Navy ....I am a pretty straight forward person as it is... Ok, I am changing subjects now! yum, I am eating these sour gummy bears and I just found one that is clear with a lil bit of red in the head!!! A good ole redhead gummy bear! I have this boyfriend that I love very much. Right now we are miles and miles across the ocean from each other!!   But we are managing! I have faith that our love is strong enough to conquer all! So that is all good. I just miss him terribly. He was just here a few weeks ago visiting too, which things went real well and it makes me miss him more! Oh well, other than work, sleep, eat and hang out on the computer for a lil while, I have nothing more interesting to write now. So I am gonna say laterzz.............

  • Yea, today I finally updated my site to look a lil more interesting! I am new at this. I actually have a moblog that I also just created this weekend but I didn't have the options to put the colors that I wanted like this! Hope this doesn't hurt your  eyes! And if it does....OH WELL!!!  Anyhow, today was an ok day. I could have went without the rain though! Work was slow as shit. Why is it that everyone wants to join the navy AFTER they drop outta school or get arrested!!! Don't they know that it ain't like that anymore! The Navy has standards now and go for QUALITY not Quantity!!!! Anyways, enough about work. I have to cut this short cuz I am tired and gotta get ready to get some beauty sleep. But I am all stoked about having this site now! So I will post another entry tomorrow!
