I posted this in the Military Dentistry forum, but not a lot of people are in there. Anyone else experience this while applying for HPSP?
Today I went in for my Medical physical and was surprised to find out how much they treat you like a dumba#@ good for nothin. So it really got me thinking as to whether I really wanted to be treated like that for four years after D-school? Is it just the Meps in Salt Lake that has such dicks running the office or is that the way it will be? They made smartass remarks about me enlisting as a commissioned officer as if I was an idiot. I guess they have no idea what it takes to get into dental school, in order to have that opportunity.
Seriously, not one single person running that place was remotely Civil. I just about withdrew my application and kindly inform them that this wasn't going to work out. Kind of like Dupree did in "You, Me and Dupree" for his job interview at the furniture store.
The thing that threw me off was the fact it was so unexpected. If I was in boot camp and they were like that, then I would be fine with it. But just for a physical? They all walked around with a chip on there shoulders. I for one lost all respect for those a-holes.
Anyone else have a similar experience? Or is it just an anomaly? I can take some sh%t, but not when it's for something like this.
