Speaking as someone who did @ 17, in retrospect, never take un-solicited advice.
NAVY right nao will take anyone w/ a heartbeat, no college, no HS dip, no GED. but you'll be a slave.
Also heard that despite what current admin is claiming about recruitment word is they're trying to get rid of ASVAB testing all together.
Shiver me timbers. Everyone needs a Military full of dumbasses.
YMMV.

Thanks for kind words 🤝🏻


Oh man, I served mandatory military service. Food was shit 😂

Also here it doesn’t pay as well as US and doesn’t have those cool benefits.

I have actually hit up all the suitable positions available in my area. Just monitor and apply all the new ones that appear. And I landed an interview too, as I stated in op.

I am also hitting remote ones from other countries, but most of them are IT.

Not like I am not trying. I do side stuff too whenever available. Even went to be a a FC/bouncer in my free time on couple occasions lol

Chin up, brother. I’m going through shit right now I wouldn’t wish on anyone. After nearly 20 years in management I had to drag my tools out and go back to fixing wrecked cars today. Not an easy living for a young man let alone a guy with Lyme disease at 56. Gotta just make it to another day. Every day. JBT knows what I’m dealing with. Best of luck to you!

My experience in the military was everyone fighting for slots by throwing others under the bus, SNCOs looking for any/all reasons for article 15s, lackluster training and almost constant SHARP awareness training because jarheads literally can't stop themselves from raping. I'll never suggest someone join the military, especially females. I was a try hard, do it all, be it all and I metaphorically got my shit pushed in for it. Kept my head down, did the hard work and got the fuck out. The consensual sex was tight though, women in the military are a different breed 10/10.

100% accurate assessment.

Yet somehow that $18-22/hr seems to go less far than the $5-6/hr it was when I was a teenager, and washing dishes. Oh right, because back then teenagers actually did that shit vs grown ass men who have bills.

When i landed in San Diego on my way to my ship, cigarettes were $7 bucks a pack in 1981.
I don't even think they're that high nao.
 
I was 18, living on the streets, broke, hungry, cold, feeling hopeless, but I couldn't use sit there crying. Do what I did - go to Home Depot and ask everyone who looks like they'd hire you to work for whatever they'll pay and if it is good enough, ask to work more. 45 years later, I'm doing O.K.

Todd Rundgren -


Nearly everyone I know claims to have heard your voice
And every time they do, I know I should rejoice
Because one day I'm sure you'll break your silence
And speak just to me
But I feel like time's running out
My heart is, my heart is filling with doubt
And God said,
I don't dwell upon you, I dwell on something else
I am not really here, so get over yourself

I've tried to follow every rule they said you handed down
And spread the sacred testimony all around
But still the others seem to have your ear but never will I
Have I displeased you somehow?
Can't help, can't help feeling left out
And God said,
There's no anger in me, you must mean someone else
'Cause it's not me that you see, you're looking at yourself
And I won't give you a prize instead of someone else
'Cause I don't play favorites, so get over yourself

Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over get over get over get over

Is it my fear, is it my pride, is it my vanity?
Should your name just be denied to save my sanity?
What is the price I need to pay to have what others seem to grasp so easily?
Pity your servant your slave
Who'll kiss, who'll kiss your feet to be saved
Save me, save me
Save me
God said,
ou are not serving me, you're serving something else
'Cause I don't need to be pleased, just get over yourself
You can't suck up, up to me, I know you all too well
But I don't dwell upon you, so get over yourself
'Cause you're not praying to me, you're praying to yourself
And you're not worshiping me, you're worshipping yourself
And you will kill in my name and heaven knows what else
When you can't prove I exist, so get over yourself

Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over yourself
Just get over get over get over get over yourself.
