Another time, I dreamt I was back in the Air Force,

I regularly have dreams where I'm back in the army again. Usually when I dream I'm in a battle, I shoot the bad guys but they just wont die. It's like I'm shooting blanks all the time. :/

Hmm...sounds like a lot of anxiety-based dreams and er 'performance' issues from Basinga Shocked

The being unprepared one is a classic. I often find myself dreaming that I have been called on to act in a play. Unfortunately I haven't attended a single rehearsal and I don't know the words. Regardless of this however the stage manager says "You're on!"

My girlfriend has a recurring dream where she's walking on terrain made out of small animals and various crustaceans and bugs n stuff trying to avoid killing them but ending up with a lot of casualties anyway. Confused

I don't think it's so much a 'performance' issue...
Looking through various dream dictionary websites, the general conclusions are;

"To be in or see a battle in your dream suggests that you are overworked. You need to give yourself a break ... If you lose the battle, then it means that you are unable to escape from current circumstances."

...sounds about right to me. Can't win a battle with a gun that doesn't kill... Since I got a new job with a long, long commute a couple of years ago, I don't seem to have any time left during the week to do what I want to do. And I can't simply leave this job because there's practically no jobs available on equal or better pay closer to home, and I can't afford to take a job on lower pay... :/

I refer the honourable gentleman to my previous answer.

Back when I was a waitress, I used to have dreams that I had too many tables and I could never get to the customers or get their orders out to them. I was constantly slammed and people were complaining about my incompetence. In real life, I think I was a pretty good waitress, I always made around 23-25% in tips post tax. Myself and other food servers would always talk about "server dreams", I thought I was the only one, but it's very common for those who do wait tables.
