The Recruiters Wife

Another term that will make or break your family life.....your recruiter will have certain times of the month he must meet certain goals these are called "phases".

"Phase One" is generally the 5th or 6th day of the month, depending on your quota you may have to have one or two in by the phase one of the month, that means to MEPS, tested and ready to take the physical and swear in.  If you can get just one in, you might start getting Saturdays off, but since you don't know when or if that may happen you will never know if you get Saturday off until the last minute you have to be prepared just in case if you want to do anything as a family.  

And no matter how hard you try and are almost certain you will have that first guy in something always happens.   And once again, noone cares about your PHASE OR YOUR QUOTA.....to accomplish that.   Like this week, we had our guy ready to go, but he needed a letter from his doctor.  The doctor left early and didn't sign the letter, so no Saturday off.
