99% of all soliders will tell you that being in the service is just a crappy job if they're honest. The only people that believe their own hype are marines, but they're actually really poo poo soldiers and pretty much all the other branches consider them tremendous faggots. so i guess if you're a regular lower class person with little or no future, you could do worse than the army

jarjarbinksfan621 posted:it really does not seem like that. perhaps my perception is skewed though, because the people who are humble about their time in the service are the people you would not even know were in the military unless it came up in an off-topic conversation like health insurance or foreign prostitutes. Most modern veterans are humble about their service because they realize that their "service" isn't much to brag about. Most of it is the same day to day bullshit you deal with any other job. There's a lot of paperwork, red tape, rear end in a top hat bosses, trying to poo poo on company time, etc. Sometimes something cool happens, maybe something blows up, but the large majority of time in service is pretty pedestrian. Even in a war zone there's a lot of time spent playing xbox.

Either you're foreign, and therefore your taco opinion doesn't count OR you're an American who watches soccer in which case your dad is ashamed of you.
