A poll to scratch my curiosity itch

[CoolWaters]

No derail...it's an open discussion! LOL Of course I enjoy it!!!!

I went back and forth between "rue the day" and "mixed feelings" and settled on the latter.

The only reason my feelings are mixed is that if I hadn't been in the Corps I wouldn't have met so many wonderful people and I wouldn't have gone to a Corps weekend in Florida and met my husband of 24 years.

The people (for the most part) were great. The rest (for the most part) was crap.

   None of the above [ 1 ] [1.27%]
   
8. Average PFAL grad/wish I had gone farther in twi [ 0 ] [0.00%]
   

Don't know that these results say anything specific except that zero "average PFAL grads" wish they had gone farther in twi.

I was surprised to see that no clear pattern came of this. Before this poll I honestly thought that there was an obvious division between those who were higher up on the way tree and those who were farther down the way tree.

What this poll has shown me is that such a division is in my head. I need to look at that, imo.

Again, thanks everybody!
