Wow, it can be as tough as going from a MOS to Recruiter and getting directly evaluated each month. Hero to Zero in 30 days. You gotta keep up with the changes you are missing during your tour.

When I went back to 92Y from recruiting there were some bumps, but it wasn't too bad. I was also doing pretty the same job though as when I went into recruiting. I didn't envy some of the combat arms guys. Some of them went into recruiting as E-5 (sometimes E-4) team leaders and would sometimes leave as an E-7 going to a PSG position.

As a prior recruiter it was a little rough going back to doing a job that I had not done in three years. Some things had changed but for the most part its just a matter of swallowing your pride and asking for help on things you need refreshing on. However, for those that went through the corporal recruiting program and left as SSG's, it was a huge adjustment. Overall it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

My suggestion SFC Anthony Cainion, is to go to GTRAK register for the 92Y GCSS-Army classes for both Unit Supply and PBO, if you have not already done so. There will be a class in Nov at Fort Bragg as well by the PMs to help you undestand terminology and navigate the system. Best wishes. Quartermasters !

Depending on your MOS! If you are field troop it would be different but if your MOS is an office junkie than you will be ok!

Not a problem, you know your stuff or you don't. If you never did, you never will.
