She's kinda a know-it-all brat and we were all a little bemused by the fact that she'd be getting a harsh dose of reality.

Not only does she get the job she wanted, but she is being stationed in freaking Greece.

What's so terrible about getting the job that you want and living in Greece? Sounds like a dream come true!

I think that was the point.
1. Spoiled kid thinks she's going to get everything she wants in the Navy
2. Friends eagerly await her getting hit on the head with reality
3. Spoiled kid gets everything she wants in the Navy
4. Friends go "DOH!"

2) Is she qualified for the positioni
