I went back to college at 25 and into a program for Construction Engineering with the goal of supervising/managing construction projects, it has turned out very well

if you get a high score you can pick whatever job you want.

there are also limited programs to convert from enlisted to officer that are highly competitive and if you test well you will be way more likely to make those. then you make a lot more money

yeah low score they would try to send you to iraq but there are still jobs you could try for. you could be a cook on an aircraft carrier which would keep you safe from being blown up in iraq.

its still an undesirable job like all the other low IQ ones and still gives you the problem of ok what do you do when you get out with that, you dont learn any skills.

It would depend if it was the year I was 24 years old, or now.

If it was now, I'd be going into something involving AI engineering for sure. Or robotics engineering, because that's going to be in huge demand in 5-10 years.

When I was 24 it was 1999, so if it was then I'd be starting to write books then instead of five years ago, and also studying cybersecurity to get into that industry early.

that is the big concern, if it is this retarded now i cant imagine what it will be like in 20 years.

I imagine right now in DC its a **** show. the further away from DC they are still pretty normal but its about to get real bad. they already have DEI officers and **** like that. just wait 10 years from now what it will be like.

I don't come from a military literate family so I wouldn't have known about any of that (even if I had performed well) until it was too late.

I’m a retired c/o. My pension and benefits are great. That’s what drew me to civil service more than the money. Also, it was the easiest job I ever had.

you're still young. My wife, who is 48, is starting over also. She has decided to go into Nursing. So she starts school on the 14th for it. Its never too late to start over.
