hm
I just received a call from our local army recruiter guy. He asks if I'm still going to college. I say, "yep". What am I majoring in? "English," I say, and then on a whim, add, "and computer science." Am I going to be a teacher? asks army recruiter guy. "Nope," says I. Oh. Then...what am I going to do with an English major? "I plan to go into software design," I say cheerfully, even though the thought hasn't really ever crossed my mind before.

Army recruiter guy pauses. "So...I guess that means you're not interested in joining the army, then?"

"Nope!" I suppose I should feel guilty for being so damn chipper about it, but really...they wouldn't want me in their army anyway. I don't do well with following orders, and I would doodle on the walls of my room.

Army recruiter guy asks if any of my friends would be interested in joining the army. I think about my friends for a minute. "Um...nooooooooo. I don't think so."

He politely thanks me for my time, and we hang up.

Then I bust up laughing. Poor army recruiter guy. He didn't stand a chance.

I got the exact same recruiter call!! I told him my major was general science. "Just general science huh?" "With an option in pre-veterinary medicine," I add. Then he went on to ask if I had any friends who would be interested. Duh, like I"m going to give out my friends numbers to him! I just said that all my friends who are interested in the army are already in the army. Shouldnt be calling people who are already in college. Too late. Oh yeah, this is Robyn, by the way.
