>>18394391former zogbot infantryman here, right now is a bad time to join the military.
Here are my reasons to not join
0. You're serving ZOG
1. no deployments (aka no tax free income)
2. Garrison life
2. Russian/Chinese war is imminent
3. woke fag agenda
4. forced vaccinations
5. motorpool
6. sleep in the rain/snow sometimes
7. 0 privacy in the barracks.
Reasons to join:
1. fucked up mentality until you realize no one gives a fuck about your service.
2. become disillusioned to our government/military even further
3. education bennies
4. VA home loan
5. get to do some cool shit 1% of the time.
6. get a lot of time off
7. the only time in my life where I had more than 3 friends
If this shit sounds enticing, I don't recommend anything other than Infantry if you're a man.
If not, go to community college and get a 2 year degree in CNC programming, systems controls, or machining. You'll make $40-60k starting and after 5-10 years you'll make $70-80k. Apply for a pell grant if you're poor and get up to $7k per semester while going to school.
Right now I'm 6 years deep into school trying to get an engineering degree. I've wasted 2 years on just learning high school level math again, and COVID restrictions fucked my shit up because I refused to get vaxxed. If I could do it over again, I would fast track CNC programming and machining; the STEM engineering INTJ meme is not worth it in your late 20s.
