Fast forward to 2:30 pm and I finally talk to a job counselor, who then tells me that I am perfectly qualified except for my vision. I have perfect 20/20 in one eye and 20/40 correctable to 20/25 in the other. Apparently you have to have perfect 20/20. Anyone know of any way around this? This has felt like the longest day ever!!!! Anyone know the vision requirements or a way around them?
thanks

Have you checked my medical advice on the appropriate Intro thread?
If you had, you would have known the standard before you went.
You need to do better with your corrected vision, or request a waiver.
BTW, did you mean to say that you arrived at 0520 and were not seen till 1430?
That IS a long wait.
