I'm trying to join the Canadian Army right now, but our recruitment system is fucking abysmal. Regular force or reserve, I don't care, I want to serve.

Shit, I'm looking to join but I get shin splints whenever I run a lot. Guess it's time to hit the gym

>>696619688
Because I'm smart enough that I can make more money as a civilian.

>>696620323
Yeah get in shape and deal with those splints before you join, they run you fuckin hard

Also try to NOT goto ft Jackson

>>696619688

I have an aversion to authority figures when they haven't specifically earned their authority, so me and the military were never right for each other

>>696620323

you are probably running on concrete, which is more likely to give you splints than asphalt or a track

because we don't need such a large military and would rather contribute to society instead of being a military bro and saying 'i fight for freedom' when i really am just a guy with a gun doing nothing all day.

I didn't say "why didn't you join the Marines"
Regardless of branch, I'm curious.

You weren't a 74D if you didn't make it through basic, you were just a recruit.

The canadian forces has been fucked like that for decades. Its a lot of bureaucray and political bullshit.

No shit lol, figured I'd post what my MOS was regardless

military is for fags who can't do anything without a father figure. the lack self discipline so naturally they flock to something that provides it. the majority of the world has it by the time they are an adult. so you could say..military personnel are behind the rest of the world when it comes to skills for everyday life. congrats and enjoy being a weak second rate beta forever.

I tried to join Air Force Spec-Ops. My scores (minus swimming because I don't live in a place that promotes actively swimming(fucking texas)) when testing myself were within standards to enlist. I, however, got enlistblocked by the fact that I had 6k in student loans. They refused to let me pursue the application because of them, and it pissed me off, so now I'm still working my $27k/year retail job. FML.

I joined right out of high school as 11B. I got kicked out in gold phase(3 days from graduation) the first time I enlisted because of high frequency hearing loss. Then 6 months later and some serious depression/suicidal thoughts I got a waiver and re-enlisted AGAIN and went through OSUT.....AGAIN. and now 6 years later and 2 deployments I'm willingly getting out because I finally realized after getting shot twice,blown up and STABBED!!! it's not worth it. Now I'm going to go back home too attend my cities police academy and make twice as much as I do now and be half as stressed. Fuck the army and I pity anyone still in or planning to join.

I'll take questions.

because college is more beneficial

Already did, 8 years, Active Duty Army. 11B, Airborne and Air Assault qualified. Next May I'll graduate with a Bachelor's of Science for Biology, then I'll continue on to a PhD in Biology with a emphasis in Herpetology.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch?

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

I don't understand how my previous comment makes me feel? I'm telling you that there are always people less intelligent barking orders. Also had to re read that a few times. Must not speak English in the military. Also 7 years with a family? doesn't sound like I the one that made the mistake. Good luck to you all the same though.

Can you join the military if you have shoulder impingement and will they fix it for you?

I agreed with you until you said spoiled. Have you seen our VA friend?

but it's really not tho.
It's just something where you enlist to serve and some drill sgt yells at you and you work out and learn a few things and then go do some cool job.

hahah same.

I should be a little more specific; the ones currently in get spoiled. If you're a veteran, yeah, you get fucked pretty hard

You just described life, my friend. There's no real point to remaining motivated, but one day your perseverance could pay off

Really not much different than any other job and if you enlist and cant stand the one they give you because they said it was something and it wasn't really what they said you can always complain and get a transfer.

You are all faggots with no time in service at all.

Lol. This fucking 03 boot sitting in Kabul like he's hard or some shit.

My POG ass saw more shit in southern Helmand than your bitch ass ever will. I was there when we were actually conducting wartime ops as opposed to getting fat at the airfield eating pizza hut and shit, pretending we were making a difference.

lol fucking boots these days bruh.

I agree, globalism and the wars it breeds are wrong, but to suggest that we're not better than those aforementioned is absurd, contrarian bullshit.

True. Im only a year in and i can already see how stupid it is. Especially when you get fucked by your SGT's and you dont notice it until someone else points it out to you, so you dont really have anyone you can fully trust aside from a close friend.
>>
>>696619688
OP, I have four people close to my age group that i know well who are either in BT, are trying to get into the military, or has been in there and got discharged. The discharged fuckwit is a little bitch who thinks he will maybe eventually amount to something, the one trying to get in is never going to because he's a skinny fuck who sees his only future as someone who gets fucking shot at, and the two nimrods in BT are only in the military because one of my other friends wouldn't hang out with them one day so they signed up for shits and giggles.

In the meantime, I'm messing with cars and not being yelled at by a pathetic jackass whose neck I'd probably snap the first time he/she tried to belittle me as I grew up in a shitty home.

My uncle was a computer programmer so I mean it's not all shit unless you're a retard. But yeah, I'm sure there's plenty of room for mechanics of different kinds if you're smart. People who can fix things. Or if you're the kind of guy that's okay with letting a few things slide but not too much maybe acquisitions or something.

Saddam would have if he had the means to, and I never implied that they're gone: In fact, they're just as prominent as ever.

Hmm. As I joined at 25 I'm well aware of how management chains work. What I'm saying is that, though you will have to deal with BS, you will not have UCMJ enforcing idiotic obligations. Furthermore, I was saying that in regular jobs, you'll have overtime compensation. Lastly, family and military don't mix-- you're right, it was my mistake. That being said, 4 of 7 years away is (regardless) a long time away.

They even once recruited a guy that was missing his trigger finger. The sargeant in charge of him was saying "how the fuck do they want him to shoot". Most of them are great guys, but the one there to pad the ranks, they really sucks.

So since he didn't have the means to it's better that the people who do will now own that land?

If the Taliban is more prominent than ever, then what good has the war we created over there done?

My bad, forgot that military meant just getting fucked for the sake of getting fucked. I dont mind getting fucked, but when its to cover for a mistake your leadership makes then it's pretty fucking dumb. But yeah, from what I'm hearing from my buddies who got stationed somewhere where theyre doing shit, it sure as shit beats garrison.
>>
>>696634290
Lots of middle age men are changing career and joining the military, even if you are not combat ready they would probably send you to be a lineman or some shit. Most of the lineman i worked with were ex-infantryman that were trying to get full pension.

Trust me, i saw enough non-fit platoon to know that the recruitment is a fucking joke.

Nope; if you have a warrant, you might be able to get through reception and MAYBE BCT, but around then or AIT youre gonna get caught and slapped with a few more charges

You're saying it's not great because they're filled quickly, I'm saying they're not great because they don't recruit fast enough.
>>
>>696635892
I'm saying that they are so desperate to get anyone to join that they have to accept people that should be rejected right away. And even then, they don't have enough people joining.
>>
>>696636181
Well they're not desperate enough to recruit me, and my only issue is non-existent medical issues from years ago.

>>696634923
I mean some people in the military wear glasses, as long as its not too fucked up and can pass a vision test.
