Sleeping in a ditch or some other godforsaken place is just one of those things you do in the military. I couldn't imagine signing up for any service and not spending a single night outside in the career.

The problems you currently have would be amplified by enlisting. You'd still have those problems, but now you're in a contract with basically no agency over your life. Don't do it.

How do you feel about contributing to imperialism in exchange for a little money so other people could make a lot of money?

I'm beyond yelling at people not to join anymore. I'm just saying some of us have conflicting feelings about having worn a uniform and contributing.

Dick Burglar posted:I'm trash and still want to join up, though not til at least 2020 and hopefully we won't have Trump anymore at that point. Still the ol' imperialism, but at least hopefully without an utter loving madman at the helm. Your plan is eating-crayons dumb. Even if you just told me you were going to start attending med school now and skip the military I'd still say the plan is dumb. Thinking you can do reserve duty and med school at the same time is just  I'd watch reality television about itI'm being an rear end in a top hat but you really ticked off the bad idea bingo for "Not much going on in my life, guess I'll join the military" types.

Recruiters don't care what you want, they just need to fill numbers that month. It's also the one time the military will even pretend to negotiate with you.

I've done the white collar/guard juggle and in the end both careers suffer along with your mental health.

BaseballPCHiker posted:I'd be really interested in hearing about your experiences. Maybe I'm WAY off but I was really thinking, 6 weeks for basic, 3 months for advanced training and then I'm more or less free. I didnt think I'd have much besides the weekend a month 2 weeks in the summer deal. lol @ anybody who thinks it's just one weekend a month two weeks a year Buddy don't do it. I get that white collar malaise and wanting something new, I get it, but this isn't it. You're just going to end up with two lovely careers you can neither commit to or excel in because they compete while you slowly get more angry and depressed. Your time on this rock is finite. Don't waste it in uniform. Head over to YOSPOS or BFC and see what they can tell you about working your career instead, it will be better for your life in the long run.
