Ill choose on Thursday I guess :manny:
don't be that dude to go in there and take whatever is available because you're on a deadline to get out of your hometown

you will ruin your life.


do your research, find a good job that suits you AND translates well into civilian work, and if it ain't there - tell them to kick rocks (and come back when the new list drops)

I'm serious - tell them to kick rocks. People say "you don't want to be a grunt" well, okay - but you DEFINITELY don't want to be a grunt in this new downsizing Army. Ask any of the coli military brehs. That life is terrible.

Depending on your ASVAB score, your options will widen or shrink. Don't know if you got a family or anything but you definitely want something in the communications, intel, or medical fields just because they're always practical and will work for you long-term. Either way, don't believe shyt a recruiter says unless there's writing behind it and don't sign a thing until you've read it over twice and thought on it for a week.

Army is nice because its the only branch that will actually guarantee you the job that you sign up for. However, it can lock you into some dumb shyt just as fast and relocating is very, very difficult especially for 1st contract guys.

But seriously - if you don't see something you actually want to do and see yourself doing, just tell them you ain't interested or better yet find a job you do want and get put on a waiting list (first come first serve basically).

Just let your commanding officers know that your allegiance is to the Dominican Republic. Don't be a c00n. Put the DR on the map

I got a DR flag tat on my left arm that I cant wait to remove. :camby:


I just want everyone to know that coward @ExodusNirvana tried to have me jumped in brooklyn and refused to meet me in neutral grounds at queens in a boxing ring provided by some random SOHH member. That piece of shyt coward wanted to jump me in an alley like the 4 horsemen :dead:

@ikbm remembers and so does @duck I think.

i remember hearing of that but to be honest i really dont know all the details, but to be real fukk all that bullshyt. if you really joining the army , your on to bigger things so fukk that petty shyt

if u do join the army tho, please, use that shyt to your advantage. do something there that will benefit u when u get back, and utilize that GI bill to the fullest. college expenses are no joke, i know from experience, if you can get them to foot the bill ...do it

PS... good luck with all that shyt breh. if you do join, come home safe
