>>168 (OP) 
unemployed?
looking for excitement?

>>169
yes and yes
is it that obvious?

I thought mercenary groups only hired previously enlisted

>>171
Na, it depends on the job. Some will take law-enforcement officers, and for specialized type roles medical personnel. Your best bet however is to start out at Triple Canopy or something similar after doing a year stint in the infantry

>>179
Are there any PMC or contractors that DON'T directly or indirectly help jewish genocidal interests? You could make this argument three decades ago, but I don't see evidence of it anywhere.

>>179
>after doing a year stint in the infantry
i drink too much beer too join the army. was going to become a 35T or P, but the can kept me from it

>>182
Not legal ones. I guess you could join Wagner Group but uhhhhh you don't exactly get sent to nice places and I think the pay is like 6K a month.

>>183
Stop drinking and just do it. Best decision I ever made, plus during OSUT I had plenty of time to think about what I actually wanted to do with the rest of my life. Have since accomplished all of those goals. Just kind of making it up as I go now.

>>185
If i get a call this week I will have a job at a warehouse or Americorp. Will be sober enough to get a job, insurance, and a doctor visit. Then study again for the asvab and try for airforce intelligence. got a 99 when i took it 2 years ago. 
I noticed I operate on kinda a wave if I don't have structure. Productive month to unproductive month. So on an so forth.

>>186
Pretty sure the ASVAB doesn't expire. What was your GT score?

Go for intelligence if you want but just know it's going to be a desk job.

125 maybe? 
>Pretty sure the ASVAB doesn't expire.
I hope so. That shit took forever! Not the test alone but the waiting too. It felt like the people in the building didn't give a shit what was going on so in my mind everyone could be wrong/or lying.
>a desk job.
I was told that you can do 35T rangers or something like that. be smart AND shoot guns. At least that is how I understood it.
If i can't do 35 series I would do pharmacy or IED or something.

145 GT score here. So, what's you fellas opinion on the great state of Israel, our greatest ally?

>>191
(You) value your opinion more than you value practical knowledge

>>192
Answer my question please, SSGT.

>>190
Yeah your ASVAB score doesn't really matter, it's your GT that does. The GT is basically an IQ test. If you got over a 120 I would recommend going aviation, or something that would actually provide value.
>I was told that you can do 35T
AFAIK that's not a real thing. Best you could hope for as a "smart" trigger puller would be 18 series, but that's a whole lot of physicality, and an entirely different mission set. Besides that, you'd have to learn another language. EOD is fine but they have an extremely high washout rate.

>>191
>>193
I highly doubt your GT score, but TND and TKD imho. I hate those niggerfaggots as much as the next guy, but the Army is a great way to get paid/get out of a pointless life rut while figuring out what the fuck you actually want to do. For example, I was an 11B, now I'm going into civilian aviation using the GI Bill at a Part 141 school. GI Bill won't cover tuition at Embry Riddle btw

 >>197
>EOD is fine but they have an extremely high washout rate.
is it just the fear of blowing up or something?

>>200
No, it's ridiculously book intensive. Like essentially an entire engineering degree in a couple of months from what I've been told. You have to nolife it the whole time.

>>197
>recommend going aviation
Flying seems awesome, but I am 31 and I don't think they would let me sign up. Even with their 10 year commitment plan. 
I think if I try this path again I would go in for something boring like a pharmacy tech, IT specialist, or whatever the fuck a "Electromagnetic Warfare Specialist" is. Let myself find excitement outside my job.
I think I have given up on the idea of the 35 series because I don't think I will want to work for an alphabet agency once I am out.

>>202
32 is the cap and it can be waivered. You would just need to get on it, like today. Whatever works for you.

>>202
>Electromagnetic Warfare Specialist"
Those are the techs who install and maintain jamming equipment on vehicles, planes etc. it’s not as sexy as the title implies. You might see a microwave area denial(crowd control) weapon if you’re lucky.
