You walk in, its pretty busy because of the surge in 2008, you see a recruiter, you pick a job, you fill out paperwork, you fill out a security form, you take a drug test, you get a date for MEPS processing, more security forms (you probably didn't do it right), you sign a contract, you go to basic, you fill out more security forms (you definitely don't know what you are doing), you play phone tag for everyone you ever met, you finally complete security forms.
