You jump at the chance. You drop out. So, you're both a drop out, AND you were rectuited at school!! How is that even possible!>?

I was heavily recruited in high school (I was in a special program for "bad kids") AND I dropped out. These things happen.......
I was also recruited at the community college many years later.
And then again at my college (but this time, they were looking for officers).
To be fair, the high school recruiter may have been looking for officers to ROTC etc, but skipped over my group (for obvious reasons).
