Tough break on the E-8, I am hoping you are disappointed for yourself and not disappointed because you think the promotion would have brought her closer.
Careerwise where do you go from here, are you there for a while?
I'm so sorry, John. You certainly don't need any more dings on your confidence right now. Sometimes these things turn out to be blessings down the road. Perhaps you are meant for a different path...
CHIN UP. Don't let her see you cower in defeat. Come up with an alternate plan/goal for yourself and shine with it.

I can stay here for now which is probably better as it would have been harder financially with the house. Hey, at least I have job. I guess things could be worse.

Lucky, Thanks, yeah it hurts but not as bad as what she's done to me. I'll be ok.

AFWAW, Don't get down on yourself because of SMSgt...the Bronze Star will really help next year. Do you have your BS...I ask because I AM sure you have your Associate degree...correct? Have your sueprvisor put you in for a a quarterly/annual award and attend/participate in the Top III, and volunteer (school is best as the hours are better - haha). You have to study but if you really want it and do the things you need to do you will make it. Take a break on dealing with your wife for a few days...you deserve to enjoy yourself.

I scored way high compared to everyone else--average score was 46, I got a 60.
board score killed me--not sure why it dropped so much, especially w/ this deployment.
Whatever, it may be a blessing in disguise. I have stability for my daughter right now(God knows she needs it with what's going on), a nice house to live in, a job that's steady and pays well and at least a whole year more in warm, sunny FL and don't have to worry about the stress of moving and learning a new job, etc. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed but it just wasn't in the cards this time I guess.
