get some shit job and build up your life and credit till your 24 when you can file for student loans under your own name. plus sliving poor as shit the year before you hit college means you get shit tons of grants and shit.

i did this and i got an insane credit score and all kinds of shit. hell when i was 24 and got a car my car insurance was 60 bucks for liability because i had a license since i was 18 and never used the damn thing. plan ahead and work towards it today

Starbucks

They're always hiring, comes with free coffee, they'll work around your school schedule and even pay for some classes. Added bonus you'll still be poor but should qualify for financial aid. Got me thru 2 years of trade school. Now I am awaiting a call for an interview for Machinist w/ the city.

>>723312425
Just try and get them nudes homie

Make shit up. Everyone lies on their resume. No one is going to call your school to check.

Honestly though, If you don't have any work experience you don't need a resume. Just go into a restaurant and fill out an application. Smile and shake the managers hand. This works especially if you're white.

>>723311899
I'm considering ocs right now and although I know it's more prestigious this is the kind of horror story that makes me rethink. Havn't spoken to recruiters yet. Someone told me I should look into the Merchant marine as well. But I finished college with a business degree, minor in Econ and concentration in finance. I would love to work on a ship as an engineer but damn. Idk

>>723312592
Stfu. You're full of shit.

I got my first job in the medical field at 18. First job in security at 20 with no previous experience where I did armored car deliveries and my first job doing secretarial work and record keeping at a law firm with no experience.

Just stop with this experience meme bs.

>>723312626
Just thought that a GPA on a resume would be a reflection of your skills man. Like a little boost :p so the employer could see how dedicated you are

>>723312900

Being a commissioned officer would be cool as you skip all of the junior enlisted BS, when I made e5 I got a room to myself and put the bunks together. I got lonely and separated them again to pretend I wasn't alone.

I dress up in my uniform to feel important sometimes.

Do you plan on going in and staying, or 4 and out?

I was in the exact same situation. I tried killing myself and got hospitalized for a few days. After that I decided that I should wait on school for a few years till I felt ready.

>>723312592
No, very few had any work experience. The vast majority of new hires of your age had NO experience. I don't buy that every single local fast food joint is telling you need work experiene

>>723312705
Will I'm white lol, but if you lie on your resume and just put a bunch of references they'll call them

>>723312915
Dedicated how? You think a measily 2.7 shows any kind of dedication to taking your education serious lol?

Your GPA is so low that I wouldn't even list it. It hurts you more than it helps you tbh. Just put Currently enrolled at <college name> for <degree>.

Put lots of action words on your resume. Bosses love action words.

>>723312090
If you forgot last semester you could of signed up this semester. No HS shit in your resume. List your diploma and going to college and go apply and accept your working a shit job. Apply for fasfa and go back this summer man up boy.

>>723313153
Not too sure. Part of my decision is that I've always wanted to serve and everyone in my family has served.
The other part of me wants to join because I did the whole corporate office gig after college and I fucking hated it. 24 btw. After applying to a bunch of places I kept getting this feeling in my gut that I just couldn't go to another office.

I definitely plan on using the GI bill to get my masters. My old history teacher was a Colonel, he told me he didn't really think about making a career out of it but he liked it so much that he stuck around.
I haven't even decided which branch yet. Waiting on talking to recruiters until I know all the THC is flushed out of my system.
I'm just worried that I'll spend all that time in the military and come out with no civilian jobs taking me seriously. Although I was told it wouldn't be a concern if I go officer.

btw do you still get to use your GI bill? considering the ODPMC?
I would look into going to school if you can. If you can muster it learning something in computers and mathematics. Just because it will give you the best prospects for getting hired and it's a decent wage. What are you into? I can help guide you anon if you give me the scoop on military life

>>723313452

He's not wrong you know. It depends on the establishment.
There's a couple 4 + star restaurants in my city owned by the same family. Getting a job as a dishwasher actually requires you to have experience as a dishwasher.
You can't even get a job as a bartender unless you have done a year as a barback. And in order to do that you need to have worked as a bartender for at least 3 years prior.
Bartenders at these restaurants make over 8-12k a month. I know a guy who works at one of these places. He was an engineer who lost his job but had worked as a bartender all through college. He got the barback job and now he chooses to do this instead of going back into engineering.

Obama ended 20 year retirement, so don't plan on it. Go Air Force, they get good food, newer equipment, short basic, good mental health programs.

I had the intention of going army for work experience and to get away from home, but it didn't work out that way. I was severely depressed and had suicidal thoughts weekly. My CO would brush it off, and finally the doc flagged me to command and I got discharged with "personality disorder" as the reason for discharge.

If you have an associates degree you can go in as an e3 like I did, and work up to nco after a couple years. If you have a bachelors you could also go in as an e4 and join the mafia.

>>723314009
nope ODPMC was written as a general discharge, and from what the VA said, I don't qualify. If it was HDSP or EPTS than yes I would get it. I am going to a tech school now to continue my education, but I'm really struggling to focus.

Also to OP. Network. Don't just go willy nilly about it. Make a nice resume. Make a nice cover letter for certain places. Brush up on the companies/establishments you are applying to in case you get a callback or an email etc.
If you are not in shape, make yourself look great. First impressions go a long way.
Practice interviewing in front of a mirror.
Look up interview questions about the industry, as well as knowing the industry.
Jobs are not hard to get if you aren't a complete retard about them.
If you have free time learn something, learn a skill and apply to jobs pertaining to that skill.

I don't have any preexisting mental conditions. So I'm good there.
I thought with my bachelors I could go straight into OCS and shoot for O-1?

Also I do want to get away from home, want to travel etc. SO I was kind of leaning towards Navy, but everyone so far has told me with my degree I should go Air Force. So I'll seriously consider it.
Also I did go through a bout of depression for about a year. Obviously not the same as you but I feel your pain brother. It's tough, but you need to find things to do that always interested you and just plow through them daily. Also don't dwell on things you can't have. I'm living at home now and my gf of 6 years who I was about to marry left me and whored around with rich daddy types. Now she's dating some scrub who looks like a nerdier version of me. But I'm driving mom's minivan and he has a BMW so what can you do? bitches with be bitches.
Anyways I'm a little confused on what you mean about not planning on it? Do you mean using the GI bill? Because if I don't have that option anymore idk man.

Also what are you studying in tech school? Is it something you like? What's something that has always interested you? like deep down in your core.

>>723315831

Lie on your resume. Make up a bunch of clubs you were in. Lie about your GPA. Lie about jobs you've had in the past.

I'm almost 40, and I have lied on all of my resumes over the years to get jobs. Sure some companies you apply to will check things out and realize you lied, but who gives a shit. There's tons of companies that don't bother checking and just want to fill a spot in their company. During the interview, just remember what you put down on the resume and you'll be fine.

I lied my ass off on my resume to get my current job, and they never checked anything on my resume.

Neuroplasticity, generally speaking, ends at the age of around 25. One's ability to learn and increase intelligence are greatly decreased past the age of 25.
From birth to the age of around 25 are absolutely the very best years to learn and develop skill. This time is limited, so it's best to go to college as soon as possible.

Not saying that you can't still learn and develop skill, it's just more than a few shit loads easier when you're younger.

Yeah, it's IT work but the school I'm going to screwed me over on my latest certs. I love IT work, it's easy and helping people is kind of fun. Before I was discharged I had to have one of the junior enlisted watch me and he just happened to be a 25v. This is my last picture of being an enlisted man. That day I learned my girlfriend cheated on me with some rich airline pilot's son, I was EAS'ing in a week, and I had no plan for the future. I tried to hid my face because I wanted to shove that camera down his throat lol.

I now live at home, drive my mom's car and go to school as a full time student. Best of luck man. If you want money, the military isn't the way to go.

Hopefully I can get an IT job, but as I cannot list the army as a previous place of employment it looks like I haven't worked for 3 years.

Because of that my family thinks I'm a bum. I've been so depressed I sleep till 10 every day just about and struggle to get going.

You're so stupid that you can't even English.

No wonder you think working at a dishwasher or bartender is mind blowing.

As others have said... Lie. The VAST majority of people won't call previous employers or references, especially for entry-level positions.

Spend time on your resume, make it look good. Make sure that there are no spelling or grammatical errors. For the love of God, don't put anything on there about high school except to say where you went and when you graduated. Even if you dropped out or got a GED, just say you graduated.

I work in the car business, where we bounce around from store to store a lot, but my resume doesn't reflect that at all.

TLDR; I lie on my resume, and I make six figures. You will definitely get away with doing the same for $10 an hour.

>>723318049
I would recommend teaching yourself a programming language. C+ is always a good solid option. Have a buddy who finished school for bio and hated it. So he took saved up some green, quit his job and taught himself C+ and C++ in the local library. He treated the learning as a job. 9-5 he was in the library. He would practice evenings as well. After 4 months he knew enough that he applied to different tech companies and got a job working data transfers or some shit like that starting at 25$ an hour.

Also I want money, but equally so I kind of don't care either. Been poor my entire life. Also despite hating finance I learned a considerable amount in school and I know how to make a nice portfolio with decent returns. So I was thinking while in the service avoid spending and just put as much dosh into the portfolio and send some back home.

It really, factually, scientifically, isn't.

wording counts. I've done IT work, and made good money at it. Here is some advice on how to word your resume

If you use more than one computer or other electronic device in your home, and they ever connect to each other...
>Experience working and supporting small networks.
If you use an iphone and a PC and ever sync them...
>Experience with cross-platform networking
Military....
>Training and experience with controlled information handling and security

>>723311235
I just got honorably discharged from the navy with no working experience. Currently working 2 jobs and going to school full time. DO NOT put anything related to high school on your resume. Also think about this: have you ever helped a lady across a street? Have you ever bagged groceries? Have you ever done anything to help another person ever? Bam. 120 hours community service volunteering. Ever helped a kid on homework? Bam. 40 hours tutoring. Have you ever sold drugs, or literally done any cash excange? Bam. 2 years entrepreneurship. Then think up shit to go with your resume that sounds good. "I volunteered helping the elderly and disabled go about their lives as normal for 120 hours during (insert year here)"

My security clearance was revoked when my command was notified. Employers avoid ODPMC's as they are listed as a personality disorder on the dd214.

It's good to be open and honest about your past.
Sacramento Metro Fire's Chief invited a candidate to interview even though he had a past of his cocaine use.
Point is that a Chief of a major Fire Department was willing to talk to an individual who didn't have a perfect past, and saw that the person was an excellent candidate who, despite a history, was very open and honest about his past and how he grew from that experience.
