yeah I don't get it. I thought the military can teach you a skill that you can use in the real world and at least take care of you and give you a paycheck for a few years while getting some real life job experience and job training/responsibility. Not to mention housing and insurance chit.
Yeah I have a college degree but the economy where I live in chit. All I can do it wait tables or work at starbucks. So many college brahs that are underemployed
oh and I thought there are enlisted to officer program if I was going to enlist in the airforce.

This. I've been out for a year and it's so nice to be away from all that bull. Just wait until you're in school talking garbage about the military and it's personnel - the looks you get from people are pretty funny considering they're used to people sucking Vets' dicks on the reg. You *will* miss some of it for sure, but not a whole lot. Veterans benefits are a pain to manage but they heap so much money on you for doing nothing it's kind of amazing. I get paid about 2000 bucks a month to go to school twice a week. What a joke.
Anyone who tells you to stay in because civilian life is too risky is probably A) An uninformed downie or B) Too scared to control their own lives.OEF Vet

then you will prob enjoy it. Like the other guy said once you have been in a few months think back on that post you made and you will see it the way we see it. But be prepared to say goodbye to a lot of your current friends. Unless you are lucky enough to live near a base where you may be posted. But if the US Army is anything like ours they will purposly base you away from home. Unless you join a specific unit that only has one base near home

But I love the military.. gave me alot.. opportunities I would have never had anywhere else.. seen alot of stuff.. met alot of great people.... Military aint for everyone.. But you did your time OP.... Good job bro.. good luck in college

Repped cause I feel bad for you.. Rear D must suck ass... I was on Rear D for about a month before deploying to catch up with my unit in Iraq.... Only unbroke one / New private... Wide eye'd and just scared of all that rank.... I was a ****ing slave... Had to paint the yellow lines for a entire Battalions Motor pool... Couldnt wait to deploy!
