Although, at least its less limbs than less passengers this time. And I'm not one to want to lose a limb but the alternative sucks...

wow. i guess the recruiter is just a glorified salesman. he told me so much that was the truth yet bent to where i perceived the opposite. well.... looks like it might be time to get an actual job? i dunno. i appreciate all your help guys. and wow i didnt know that the u.s. relied mainly on reservists to send to iraq. ummmm... anyone here from the jacksonville area know of any job oppurtunities in a maritime related genre? or of any charters needing deckies? i dunno. i guess its time for me to get a real job and save up for college. i wanna get a degree in either fire science or maybe marine biology. i really dont know. after being messed over so much by all these 'dream job companies' im gonna just take the normal way of life now. no instant success b.s. for me anymore, im tired of being conned. well... reality checks suck but at least theyre a surefire way to learn. back to reality for me, im no longer gonna ride this long train of deception. hell, ill even work fast food if need be.
