Heat of the moment

By SkyDiver - 20/05/2011 07:46

Today, I tore up my airborne academy admission documents because my lab results weren't good enough. A few hours later, they called me to apologize for the misunderstanding, mine turned out to be perfect and they'd accepted me. They need me tomorrow with all the documents to finalize the admission.

Tell them what happened. They were the idiots that made a mistake and it is their fault.

I can't because a few hours prior, my dictionary told me I wasn't good enough so I ripped all the pages up.

tape it back together and then make a photocopy and take that in to them. if they want the original tell them that you put it in a frame because you were so excited that you got accepted. I'm sure they'll take the photocopy then. just don't forget picture ID

It's good to know that someone with such a short fuse will soon have access to WMDs. I just hope I'm not around when you go on your demented rampage, Lee Harvey.

It may not have been a short fuse issue. It may have simply been the fact that those documents have personal information on them and the OP was throwing them out since they had been rejected and thought they no longer needed them. I shred or rip up anything with personal information on it before I throw it out.

not to mention that being airborne does not mean we have access to WMD's. it just means we are crazy enough to jump out of perfectly good aircraft with a shit ton of gear strapped to us.

I'd say I mistook the document for something else and accidentally tore it up. If you tell them you tore it up in anger, they'll take that as emotional instability and anger management issues. Trust me.

Don't worry, if you have been in the military for more than two minutes, you know that they have everything on digits. Just request another copy.

My experience with the military and paperwork tells me that no one ever has a copy of anything on file, and you're lucky if they don't lose information you already gave them. I remember that it took 4 trips to finance, filling out the required forms and submitting a copy of my orders, before they finally got me into their systems. Now whenever I turn in a form, I make sure to have at least 2 extra copies.

I told 'em the truth, and after they blamed me harshly, They gave me only 3 days to recollect the papers I tore down, which btw took me 8 days to compile. And when I mentioned that, they retorted; if u wanna be a flier, u'll do it!

Tell them your dog got it and tore it up. i'm confused though.. Did they send you what you needed for admission and say you weren't accepted at the same time? That doesn't make sense..

There, now your learning a lesson. Don't count your chickens before they hatch. You should have waited a couple days before assuring yourself you were not accepted & tearing up your documents.

I'd figure a letter saying he is not accepted usually means he is not accepted no assurance necessary
