Those going to meet and greet thougth it would be fun to make a name tag with your N4M screen name on it. Something simple, but so we can all identfy each other and say THANKS for supporting each other through bootcamp.

Ok hear is what ive read and what ive been told. Undesignated is horrible but it also has something good to it. Undesignated means they have no set rate. They usually cant strike for a rate for about 18 months, something our recruiter forgot to mention. They do the crap work from what ive been told, chipping paint to peeling potatoes. One good thing is that they get to see what all the jobs are like and will have a better understanding of what rate they really want to get. when my husband went to meps he was all set for the nuc program, when he went to put in for it while he was there they said ummm im sorry it says you are colorblind, your recruiter should have known you couldnt have this rate, so it was either wait however long for a rate to come up without that restriction or go undesignated. He didnt want to wait... I was kind of upset because I didnt even know until he came home from there.
