Rude, almost correct...AAWO is a long way along the career path from where the RN and I parted ways (it's a specialist adqual post PWO). All else is correct, and I'm doing fine outside.
The NCAITC was definitely the hardest thing I've done in terms of initial training, and I wish my coursemates well when they finish in a few weeks and the staff for their immense professionalism. I enjoyed my time in service but, as has been pointed out, I wasn't successful in my chosen areas and so decided to pursue what will be a more productive life outside. This will be my last post on Pprune, and I'd like to thank all the people that have given me good advice while I've been using these forums. Be safe one and all.
