Well see there's your problem right there! If you sign up, then do it for real, not this weekend warrior shit!
I'm just kidding man, but I have noticed that Reservists/Guard do not have it the same as us who were active. A lot of active duty members will think of you as slightly lesser because you are coming in working with them, and you train 1 weekend a month, and this is something they do full time, all the time, away from home. I'm not saying it's right, but that's how a lot of people feel until you prove to them you actually know what is going on.
You're second mistake was joining the ARMY. ARMY = "Aren't Really Marines Yet". Being part of a Marine unit is off the heezy!
