Current Events > Are you eligible to join the US military today?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Yes, but I'm not enlisting

No, but even if I was I wouldn't want to join an organization that kills people for corporate profit.

Shouldn't this be moderated for spam?

Not eligible, but would never join the military. Largest criminal organization in the world

Thought about joining the military when I got fired and my lease was terminated. Felt like I was hitting rock bottom, and the military seemed like a good option at the time.

I went to a recruiter, and I was given that standardized test (I think the ASFAB? I don't know what it's called). It was just a practice one, so I was allowed to bring it home.

Holy fuck it was a hard ass test. I didn't bother finishing it because it was too intimidating. I ended up not going back to the recruiter. Looking back, I kind of wish I did, but now my life has too much structure, it would be inconvenient to join today. I'll admit some of it is laziness, and I'm just making excuses lol.

The Army is the world's largest gang
The Air Force is a corporation
The Navy is a club
The Marine Corps is a Cult

The ASVAB is EZ

Okay I can explain this one lol

At the time I was 24 (if I remember correctly), and I had been out of school since 20. So I was very rusty, especially with the mathematics section of the exam. I also never performed particularly well in school. I'm taking calculus right now, and I study my ass off because that's the only way I can be successful. Some people in my class don't need to study at all and they perform equally as well as I do.

Also, I say it's hard but I never actually finished it. I just saw a couple of questions, thought it was too difficult and gave up. For all I know, maybe I would have done okay on it lol.

Nope. Too old to enlist.

I joined airforce in 2015 and got out in 2019. I was not a fan of my job (electrical and environmental systems for aircraft). That said I do have generalized anxiety disorder so a flightline setting with lots of noise and jets breaking all the time was too stressful for me. My unit had a lack of manning too so I had to work by myself for a large period of time and felt like i was winging it the entire time . Was scared that id eventually fuck up so bad that i either get like an article 15 or my reputation goes down the drain (I really cared about my reputation at the time).

Anyways I had to get a waiver for my GAD in bmt cuz I stupidly mentioned on a questionnaire that I used to take prozaic .

I'm still technically in that inactive ready reserve list at least till sometime in 2023. Wouldn't say I'm in the right shape anymore cuz my cardio sucks and I'm really weak now. Id only pass the waist measurement test ahaha.
