Is it impolite to just walk into a recruiting office without calling first?
Question by ArmyStrong707: Is it impolite to just walk into a recruiting office without calling first?
I really want to join the army. I’ve heard that it can sometimes be impolite if you just walk into a recruiting office telling them you want to join because it pulls them away from whatever they need to get dont that day and from helping other recruits and that you should call first? I dont know why but im always better talking in person with someone then over the phone and would much rather do that.
I also am nervous about telling them i shoplifted when I was a minor which I know they will want to know, and I’ll need to know if i need a waiver for that or not….i dont want them to judge me for it or anything because it doesnt reflect the kind of person I am at all…
Would it be impolite if I just walked into a recruiting office instead of calling first??
