Pubnat 8 GEO's OUT! Post your states!

I'm really pissed. Why did they have to wait so long? It really sucks to give up on this, but I've moved three times since graduating from college and I'm done with moving, done with uprooting my life. I've found my home, I'm applying for grad school in a different field, I've finally forgotten about aviation, and then I get a friggin' Geo Pref?!

Don't worry, it's doubtful that any of us will actually get selected.
 
Alright!! Thank god they are here!! I called OKC and the woman told me to pick the 2 states I prefer, hence the word pref. It's only a preference, not a demand. She then said to put in the comments box "Will go anywhere in the U.S." if I am willing to. So I put down FL and GA, but if my only way in is to go to Alaska, then by god I'm becoming an eskimo.
 
and swinte00 is back too?! u applied to PUBNAT8? give it a go!
No, I got a GEO PREF email right before I washed out of OKC. My dumb ass didn't fill it out.

I've got my hand in the cookie jar for a ton of other federal jobs, though, so here's to that! :beer:

Well, I'll pray there's another PUBNAT just for you then! I'll drink to your other opportunites as well! :beer:
 
Good luck with that.

I did too! They've shot me down when I was wide open with choices, so I figure i'm going to try and be picky. At this point, I dont care. The other way didnt work, so i'm trying a new way. Maybe my direct, blunt approach to the area I want to work will do something. If not, oh well, i'm still content with everything!:rawk:

Much appreciated.

I hope that everyone gets the GEOPREF that they want. I'd honestly move to Guam if I got another shot at it.

Geez, Swine, you're a masochist.

In that case, adding ", b**ches!" to the end of it might've gone over even better.

I really hope some of you older guys (old as in more time on JC) finally hit it this time. Some of you have been knocking around here even longer than I have, and you're really due for a break.

I'm starting to feel like JC is like the old MTV show "Next" where everyone sat around in an RV proclaiming how awesome they were and how THEY would be the one to get the person of the preferred sexual persuasion to go out with them. After they exited the bus, they got to go on all these little escapades with that person to see if they passed muster. Once they saw/hung out with the person outside, they would either be accepted or rejected. If rejected, they'd come back to the bus and tell everyone why they got rejected. If they got accepted, they were almost never heard from again.

Side note: according to the missus, my Academy packet just arrived at the house. :cool:
 
@Jerms

Wow man it looks like you have been waiting forever congrats to you....

Psssh. There's still a few from PUBNAT2 hanging around. Shoot, I started back on PUBNAT3 and don't have a date in hand. It was easy to convince some of us to take transfers recently when they said that keeping our original facility would turn a two year wait into a four year one...
 
that's the spirit CamY!

Eh, some people call it pessimism. I call it realism.

If anyone here gets selected (as in, makes the referral list THEN actually gets selected) from a straight up OTS (not VRA, not CTI) app, I will buy you a 6-pack.

Can you go ahead and set aside my beer money please? I'm not CTI and VRA only applies to vets that were ATC while serving. Now I am a vet, so I have a preference, but I was just an F-14 avionics tech. No VRA or CTI here..... Do I get to pick what type of six pack? I'm partial to Grolsch Lager. :beer:
