Why don't you join the military, /r9k/?

>structured and handheld life, no option but to be in shape

>decent NEETBux (except they arent really NEETBux)

>learn a useful skill as long as you can do basic math and reading (just need a good score on the ASVAB)

>chad and stacy will respect you

>if you go infantry you get the opportunity to go kill ragheads every now and then
>>
>>38537251
If you join the military as an autist, you will get fucking harassed and bullied. Being in the military requires teamwork, hard work, good communication skills, and the good sense to know when to shut the fuck up, all of which a robot lacks.
>>
>>38537283

Yeah, after seeing Full Metal Jacket I didn't want that happening to me

>>38537251
giving your life to a country is the gayest thing you could do

Aren't you basically just enslaving yourself by going military?
>>
>>38537268
OP here, You don't have to even go to war

you can get all the same perks and shit and just work a decent deskjob or something that takes you out in the field but puts you outside the line of fire like radio repairman or diesel/aircraft mechanic

the only people who will mock you will be the 03xx kids that will call you a POG

>>38537283
if you're a literal autist yes you're obviously disqualified

however if you can just do what someone tells you you'll be fine. after you get IT'd (punished) a few times you'll fall into place

>>38537308
like I said, you don't have to be infantry. aircraft/diesel mechanics have it pretty good and so do motor transport and intelligence
>>
>>38537251
they rejected me, just like everyone else.
>>
>>38537315
not necessarily, your life is just very structured and planned out for 4 (+2) years.

you can also just go on a reserve contract where you are a weekend warrior once a month and 2 weeks in the summer

I started talking to an army recruiter the other day and he showed me all the different jobs in the army

What job would you guys recommend?

I was thinking about 92Y but it seems kinda boring

>>38537405
Which branch and what are your MOS choices in order?
>>
>>38537405
What's wrong with 2L?

OP here, this is what I've done:

I enlisted into reserves with 0331 MOS and I ship for boot in about a year since I enlisted at a weird time, right out of high school.

Since I'll be a reservist I can still go to school but my main goal is to enter the PLC program where I commission after going to 2 6-week OCS courses in the summers and completing my degree.

Does that sound far fetched or retarded?

Should I leave DEP and just go to PLC as a civilian?

Thanks.

Kertaconus in right eye. If I could have joined the army and escape my bipolar mother and mentally retarded stepfather. I would have long ago. If there is a god he did this to me on purpose as a cruel joke.

I'm joining the Navy.

The military is a great jumping off point for me. In English and Reading, my ACT scores are well within the 99th percentile, and my Science score is in the 90th percentile, but my math is in the 50th percentile because algebra is a bitch. Ironically, I'm great at math math, but fucking trigonometry and algebra do me in like no other.

So, I figure, I can become a Russian translator, I'm already learning Russian, and I can get free college from military as well as great credentials if I am a translator for the Navy.

Become like an ambassador or diplomat, would be pretty cool until I get poisoned.
>>
I would be grateful to be a truck driving POG, but I'm medically disqualified. Such is life I guess

Army, my top 3 were signal, cyber, and MI

>>38537538
I don't mind working with small teams, but a whole platoon can be hard to manage.

>Does that sound far fetched or retarded?
Not really, i was a prior service reservist too but unless you have a good job lined up after college, i would advise going active.
>>
I'm in the military and I'm getting out in 3 months after serving 5 years.

So glad its almost over.
>>
>>38537808
To add to this, I'd always wanted to be a bradley crewman/abrams crewman, or inf/cav scout
>>
>>38537251
Already did, wait for a ward kids. Right now it's all pretty much quite and rules are strict. Rules relax during a war and short term contracts come back. If you join right now, unless you're a superstar and suck a mean dick, you'll be a janitor/gardener for the first 3 years (think: the black landscaper in the "Get Out" movie trailer)
>>
>>38537251
There's more rules and obligations than just being in shape man, it's not worth the trouble and upward mobility is slow like molasses.
>>
>>38537511
Don't do it M8, wait for a war, get a short term contract with a job that's in short supply so you can get a signing bonus. Now's not the best time.

I wanna join the navy. I'm scared as fuck I wont get into it, tho. I've been getting used to failure lately.

If I don't I'll probably kill myself.

I joined back in 2010 and got put in 11chuck instead 11b like I wanted. already did my time. I'm actually a disabled veteran. Ft. Drum was fucking cold and gay.
I wouldn't really recommend it for arcanines
I can remember browsing /r9k/ in the barracks in winter 2011, clear as day.
>>
I'm an air force fag, currently stationed in Korea until February, then off to Germany

I work 8 to 5, much of the time is spent at a desk, the rest is working with electronics
PT is on my own most of the time, I usually go lifting(free 24hr gym)
I make enough money that I currently have $10k in the bank despite not even being particularly thrifty
I get 30 days of paid leave per year, I'm about to go to the Philippines to hang out at the beach and fuck traps

HOWEVER
There's a lot of stupid bullshit in the enlisted military. Lots of restrictions and getting treated like children, "mandatory fun", and PC culture. Plus the military is full of normies and chads. Also minorities if that bothers you
>>
>>38537251
>Why don't you join the military, /r9k/?
I plan to. I'm working out at the moment so I'm /fit/ enough to apply in a couple of months. I've had meetings with army careers officers and everything.

what job in the air force friendo
>>
Stop lying to those robots, anon.
>>
>>38537251
Because I'm a quitter and they don't let you quit.

Another way to put it is I enjoy freedom, and not being harassed (one reason I'm not begging for work, the harassment issue of being disposable as a new soldier).

And it's unethical. I would probably never kill someone, but if I did I would want to do it hot blooded, not cold.

And finally I live in the now, not years from now, so for the same reason I won't torture myself with secondary education, I won't go that rout either, just so at the end of the day you get respect, when I actually have to live today and tomorrow.
>>
The military is a good option, just don't join the Marines because there are only 4 jobs that arent bullshit. Go into the airforce if you can.
>>
>>38537251
In my country it is mandatory for all males to serve 2 years + reservice to they are 40 years old.
The pay isn't even that great mind you its about 400 usd a month. Even working at macdonalds has a higher pay (about 1600 usd minimum pay), you also have to know that the cost of living in singapore is the highest in the world. So the 400 usd per month is practically worth nothing. Tbh I don't wanna waste my early 20s (technically 19) in the army. On its own its already a 2 year delay to your studies putting you 2 years behind your female counterparts. Which to me 2 years is quite a big disadvantage. Who knows, maybe if i'm lucky my lazy eyes/double vision will exempt me from combat positions?

Already did. It's pretty easy too. You just can't be a fatass or someone who complains a lot and is easily depressed.

People act like I'm making some sacrifice, when I'm really just watching anime and posting on 4chan half of the time. The rest of the time, I'm either practicing stuff I do on a submarine or I'm on a submarine doing the stuff I practiced.

Other guys say being on a submarine is hard, and some kill or try to kill themselves, but I don't see the big deal about it.

Daily reminder that NAVY and AIRFORCE are the robot branches. They have the most Technician and engineering jobs and better living conditions. You might even be stationed in Animu Land, kek. Army is for Chad. I leave for basic training in 3 months. Go Navy!

I'm thinking that if I don't get into a good college, or if I end up disliking my course, I'd like to try joining the navy. I can't swim, and I'm terrified of drowning, but I'd love the feeling of being out on the open ocean with blue skies above and blue ocean below.

if you're not an 11 boom boom you're not going to be doing jack shit, and on the 5% chance you did see combat, you think you're going to be killing begging children? you're going to be shooting at goatfuckers that are shooting at you

Drill sergeants are tough yeah but i don't see much room for actual cruel, demeaning childish bullying. perhaps when the normies get bored in the desert and want to pick on anyone who's robotic in the slightest but if there really is no social pressure and its all objective based with no biases towards each other than that would probably be comforting to robots.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS MEME

Everything about the military is a fucking lie. It sucks, every thing about it sucks. You will never get to operate. It's full of feminism, bureaucracy, niggers, and the dumbest people on the planet. Like if you don't want a job because you don't want to deal with job drama, the military is the worst possible alternative. And if you are a lazy NEET BCT is just going to fuck your body up and give you the worst depression and anxiety regardless of how well you fake it.

>>38537511
if you go through with it, just make sure it isn't anything OSUT. You get treated like you're in BCT the entire time and you really don't want that. The one MOS that everybody said was great was 88m which is truck driving. All those guys said it was really easy and really chill training.

just don't be an idiot and pick something combat related because that's all a meme

The loan forgiveness and gi bill benefits are really tempting, as well as getting to be outside our cancerous mainstream society, in a circumstance that forces you to cultivate self discipline and getting to play the served my country card on normies and having gainful employment inventives.
