I was having cold feet all day and i told them I didn't want to be there and I wanted to get my bags and leave. They had a pep talk with me which motivated me enough to sign the papers, could I back out now or would they be AWOL?
Im going in as an EO, and I read somewhere saying that after bootcamp graduation you have the weekend to hang out around the area with family or whoever, before getting sent to A school. I was wondering if someone could vouch for this? Thank you.
Super excited to start this new journey and get to work alongside some cool-ass people. Shipping out in August and looking forward to learning as much as I can. Any insight, advice, or things you wish you knew before boot camp or A-school would be greatly appreciated!

I have meps tomorrow and do have some speeding/traffic tickets that were paid and closed. I even double checked to make sure. I don't want to get in any trouble from meps or at basic, about these tickets that I've had before. Should I follow the recruiters advice or tell meps that I did get speeding tickets/violations?
Recruiter told me they have no way of finding that

I'm 24 with 3 years of carpentry experience. My recruiter told me they may be able to make an exception for EO and CM, but CM would require a waiver because of my score.
My first choice is BU because it lines up with my experience and interests. At the same time, the Seabee community as a whole is what attracts me, so EO is definitely appealing too.
Before talking to the Navy, my plan was to join the Air Force if I couldn't get a construction-related job. Now I'm worried that if I pass on an EO contract while waiting for BU, I could miss out on the Seabees entirely.
For those of you who were Seabees, would you take EO now or hold out for BU? Has anyone been in a similar situation and regretted either decision? Thank you
