I am attempting to join the ARMY.
I just took the ASVAB, and answered a bunch of invasive background questions. Wish me luck, I'm for real, I'm trying to join the ARMY. This is my best option for a decent career, so wish me luck, serious assholes. No I will not disclose any personal info. I believe America is a good country, and alot of countries would like to be in the situation we are in. There are alot of opportunities and social programs that you just wont find in other countries. I'm ready to serve and protect what I believe to be one of the best (if not best) countries in the world.

Congrats and good luck. Let me know if you got any questions.

Dude your killing me ;D Actually did well in simulators, they we're still flying Huey's then so very well may have been an ace haha.
Re: I am attempting to join the fucking ARMY.
I Applaud you!
But I'm curious, If you are looking for a great career, what pointed you in the direction of the Army as opposed to say Air-force, or Navy? Or is it an Army Career your looking for? I'm not saying the Army is not the best choice for you.
Something to mull-over if you hadn't done so already. Take a look at where the biggest demand is and the projections for when you plan to leave the military. There are a lot of really big paying Government jobs that require security clearance USAJOBS - The Federal Government's Official Jobs Site You can prep your self for a very easy transition. Also note that there are a lot of low paying Jobs as well.
Re: I am attempting to join the fucking ARMY.
Good luck!
Can't fault anyone who is willing to fight for their country. I almost joined once, struggling to find work after I graduated uni, drunk in the middle of the day and thought I would be a good idea to sign up!
Good job its a long process now as I would of been dishonourably discharged years ago!
Went through with everything as I had made the mistake of telling my friends while I was still drunk, but failed my medical - slight hearing problem in my left year, thank fuck!

I'm not in yet, I still have to get cleared, and pass my MEPS which I think shouldnt be a problem. I can do about 60-70 push ups(military style not girly style) and about 70+ sit ups, my weak spot is the running, which is right about at the cutoff point. I still have some time to improve on my 2 mile time. Thanks VictorCharlie, my Recruitment Officer has answered all my questions, just got see what jobs are available and sort it out from there. No, I wasn't drunk when I decided. :p
Re: I am attempting to join the fucking ARMY.
What trade(s) did you sign-up for?
Re: I am attempting to join the fucking ARMY.
That's cool, the military provides a lot of career paths, not to mentioned the GI Bill which helps pay for school. One of my best friends joined the military just so he can get the money to go to Cal Arts an expensive private Art school. Merit based scholarships+GI bill his entire education was paid for. Now works at Pixar, which is known for works such as Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Wall E, etc.

Nothing yet, I have to get my results, then go over whats available with the recruiter. It's going to be a week or so because they are going to be revamping something with the recruitment process. He said they will be doing that all of next week so just waiting at the moment.

Thats one of my main reasons for wanting to join, plus you get housing and food paid for. So you are able to save more than regular, plus medical benefits.
