They weren't allowed to talk to the PX's? Really? I was a PX this year, and I had girls who balled for hours on the phone to me about not being sure which one to sign (our g.l. advisor said she should have paid our cell phone bills for that quarter). All I could do was explain that you are making a "life" choice, that you should look at this as a LONG TERM choice, not a "popular" one. I also had to deal with the "non match" phone calls, which were REALLY REALLY rough, especially since I had been one of those girls last year.
