Default Thinking about getting back in the reserves

I've been thinking about it for a while. Even before 9/11. My daughter left for Parris Island December 9th, giving me more motivation to get back in. I had talked to the prior service recruiter for the reserves. Whats holding me back you may ask..my age is one i'm 38 would have to get a waiver to get back in. The recruiter didn't think it would be a problem though. When i got out i was a L/Cpl with almost 3 years time in grade. Just wonder what rank I would be when i get back in. Also if i get activated going from my salary now to the military pay..BIG ouch.
How hard would it be to take orders from an 20 y/o cpl or sgt. It would be awsome to be back in when i get to see my daughter graduate from PI on 3/7/03. I just wanted to get others thoughts.

Ohhh Rah...
