Back when I was 18 I wanted nothing more then to be a nurse. I didn't have much going for me in terms of qualifications so becoming a normal nurse was out of the question so I decided to become a nurse in the military. I thought it would be easier and I would get to travel the world.
I signed up and it turned out I was wrong. I sucked at basic training and following instructions. They did a background check on me and having gone to S.E classes wasn't a good look. They also did a psychological evaluation on me and it turns out I was a "deviant sociopath" so that wasn't a good look either.
After a little bit I had to come to terms with the fact that I would never be a nurse. It was heartbreaking to do that. I had worked hard for so long just to be one and it really hurt to understand that no matter how hard I tried nothing would work.
What is S.E class?
Special education class
