If you could change anything about your life, what would it

Post by AngryPistols »

be?

Would you have:

Paid more attention in school?
Gone out for the football team?
Not purchased those Michael Jackson records?
Not gotten that mullet hairdo in your HS picture?
Tried to fingerbang the ol' prom queen 'Mary Jane Rottencrouch'? :lol:
Stayed in the Military?
Would you change your current job?
Not bought Enron stock?
Got an Education or some other trade?
Stayed single?
what?

Let's hear your regrets.

Other than I would have gotten an education that would have allowed me to work outdoors( I hate drivin' the desk), I have no regrets.

I would have gone to RRD for a couple years before getting out, and I mean it.

I don't have too many. They aren't really regrets, more like what ifs .....

I turned down a slot at USAMAPS/USMA during BCT, I was 17 and couldn't fathom the idea of signing away 11 years of my life. Wish I had done something more high-speed or stayed in the service.

But, I'm truly blessed with my wife and 2 boys, and the events that led me here and to the life I have now I wouldn't trade for anything.

reapplied to a certain unit.

Other than that I would do it all again.
I would just change a few things. Knowing what I know now of course.

Big regret

Years ago, wasting time with a girl that my friends said was no good for me. Not enough blood to run both heads at one time.
