The far left IP phone was being set up for my home VPN connection. The next phone in line is an Avaya 9630 IP that I use daily. Works great, IMO. As for the analog, that is just used to connect to my modem for dial-up connects into older Avaya phone system. Then the far right phone is my backup IP phone lol :cyber:

It's not too bad. :D A few years ago, I had a choice of a bigger office on the south side of the building but I decided to stay put on the west side because there was a small building and lot to the south. A couple of years ago, they built a 5-story mixed-used building on that lot and now those people get to look at walls instead of the Flatirons.

Quick rundown, without being too specific. We have a big conference table in the middle with computers on it, several rows of desks on different levels, in a horse shoe shape around the desk, one wall with 4 giant 16 foot projector screens with maps and certain classified footage, like 80 damn computers, many of which with 3 monitor setups, and a number of stations and cubicles.

That's all you get though.

You mean the American dream of having a job right? Cause lets be honest thats about the ONLY thing recruiters are good for these days. I know there are some that actually care about their recruits but the majority of them don't. So what can you do for a former Marine that joined the Army in MI. Bad knees, back, I HATE MI (at least being a Fox) and HATE being enlisted. :) Oh I should have my degree in Jan 2011. Contract is up Dec 2011.

Bad knees, back, I HATE MI (at least being a Fox) and HATE being enlisted. :) Oh I should have my degree in Jan 2011. Contract is up Dec 2011.

So basically your saying we're only "good" for a job? Wow, you must of been screwed over by your recruiter to have such a negative statement for Recruiters. I have the opportunity to counsel high school students on career options (even other than military), I work with college students to show them how they can afford to obtain their college degree by serving, AND I take special time to guide my new incoming Soldiers to be the best they possibly can BEFORE they ship to basic training, and even after. All of our careers open new doors and opportunities in the civilian employment sector. I maintain contact with about 85% of my troops I have placed in the Army and Army Reserve. I get a paycheck regardless if I put anyone in or not. I just so happen to be good at what I do, because I know what kind of an impact I can make on peoples lives, especially in these trying times. If you only could see what kind of backgrounds, and living environments some of my applicants come from, you would be happy to offer them the opportunity to serve their country, and get out of a bad situation. I also come across individuals who have it all, and still wants to serve just because they want to do their part for our country. Those are the things the average Soldier or civilian doesn't see. So again I say, I help dreams come true, no matter what your true goals and passion are.

SOCAL4LIFE, from what you stated, I assume your currently serving in the reserve or active duty, right? If so you will need to coordinate with your Retention/Reenlistment NCO who will help you figure out the next move in your career advancement. Also, if you have medical issues that may keep you from reenlisting (permanent PULHES with any 3's in it) they will Med board you out, and you won't be able to REUP. But anyway, go talk to your REUP NCO, and see what they can do for you. It is far easier to change career paths while in, than to get out completely, and attempt to come back into the military. PM me if you have any questions. Also, my wife is a Retention NCO, so I can shoot her any questions you may have in that aspect as well...

Man, I've been in the Army 14 years and barely make over $70K annually as an E-7 Recruiter with special duty pay and BAH/BAS included. If I could hook you up to make that much just coming in, the Army wouldn't have Recruiters, because everyone would be wanting to join. You have to work up to that salary, but it is achievable at a quicker pace if you become an Officer or Warrant Officer with a 4 year degree. Otherwise, joining as an enlisted Soldier takes a little more time...




How about a 24 yo with hardware in the knee, missing a few minor organs, and trying to go back for an engineering degree?
You would need a medical review to see if you would qualify. If you have all your medical documents, you can submit them through a Recruiter to see if your eligible. I have seen people join with missing spleens, chopped intestines, other internal issues. Just depends on what the paperwork says, if your docter cleared you as fit for duty, and what our medical reviewers decide. So go talk to the nearest recruiter with medical documentation in hand and see what they say.:alien:
