Also, with an ASVAB score like that, please tell me you're not going security forces.

2018-11-01 22:47:53 UTC  

Fuck dude idk

2018-11-01 22:47:59 UTC  

Honestly no idea

2018-11-01 22:48:04 UTC  

I like manual jobs

2018-11-01 22:48:13 UTC  

I also like solving problems and having to think

2018-11-01 22:48:16 UTC  

And being outdoors

2018-11-01 22:50:18 UTC  

A combat weatherman perhaps, lol! By manual do you mean just picking things up and putting them down or like a trade?

2018-11-01 22:50:25 UTC  

like a trade

2018-11-01 22:50:30 UTC  

I am pretty good at welding

2018-11-01 22:51:18 UTC  

Honestly, have you considered being a Hull Technician in the Navy?

2018-11-01 22:53:26 UTC  

The Navy is the more "blue-collar tradesman" part of the military. Air Force is the more "I like computers and do calculus for fun" part of the military.

2018-11-01 22:58:16 UTC  

My dad was in the navy and that sounded basically the same

2018-11-01 22:58:25 UTC  

Air force I mean

2018-11-01 22:58:31 UTC  

I've never thought about the navy

2018-11-01 23:07:27 UTC  

Just something to think about...

2018-11-02 00:06:20 UTC  

@Trashboat Excellent work!

2018-11-02 13:12:51 UTC  

@Trashboat if u like picking things up and putting them down, go Marine Corps

2018-11-02 13:54:24 UTC  

Hard no

2018-11-05 04:19:40 UTC  

@Trashboat Something like aviation tech, admin, comm or intel

2018-11-05 04:20:21 UTC  

@Jason - CT Is that a question?

2018-11-05 04:21:10 UTC  

Suggestions

2018-11-06 21:19:12 UTC  

@Trashboat I was in the Navy. Nuclear Electronics Technician. 6 years.

2018-11-12 23:57:30 UTC  

Y’all got any advice on how to pick new hobbies?

2018-11-12 23:58:34 UTC  

I’ve had an enlightening conversation on how dangerous video games are in so much as they are a false sense of accomplishment.

2018-11-12 23:58:41 UTC  

Do you play an instrument? Play an instrument.

2018-11-12 23:59:07 UTC  

I don’t live alone tho

2018-11-12 23:59:38 UTC  

I play guitar with headphones 🤷

2018-11-12 23:59:48 UTC  

Chad

2018-11-13 00:00:01 UTC  

You don't need to turn an amp very loud either

2018-11-13 00:01:18 UTC  

Just do lots of different stuff until you find something you like. I pick up a new hobby every couple years, but I'm always picking stuff up and putting it back down

2018-11-13 00:01:57 UTC  

I have way too many hobbies I have to decide what to focus on

2018-11-13 00:02:29 UTC  

Yeah my only hobby is playing video games and that’s really the only thing I do aside from work eat sleep

2018-11-13 00:03:52 UTC  

@Trashboat What are your current hobbies? Be honest, even it it's currently just videogames lol.

2018-11-13 00:04:04 UTC  

Yeah that’s it

2018-11-13 00:05:54 UTC  

@Trashboat Hmm. Well I'll tell you upfront, growing up with the vidya, it becomes a part of you. Practically a substitute for the mythos and adventure lacking in the white man's modern life. So don't expect to quit 100% for at least another couple of years, if that's your goal.

2018-11-13 00:06:07 UTC  

Sec I got more to say gotta get chicken outta the oven

2018-11-13 00:07:07 UTC  

Do it up brother

2018-11-13 00:08:34 UTC  

Anyways, that was the impression I got since you mentioned your iron pilling on them being a perpetual cycle of short term gratification that goes no where etc etc

2018-11-13 00:08:39 UTC  

(That you want to quit)

2018-11-13 00:10:13 UTC  

So currently, for the past couple years, I'll probably play three-four top notch games a year, typically binging by spending all my free time on them for a week or so until I finish them. E.g. Witcher 3, Cuphead, right now Im looking for to remake of RE2 and Cyberpunk 2077

2018-11-13 00:11:38 UTC  

But, for about two years before that, (I'm 23 and halfway through with college, fyi,) I stopped playing all MMOs, league, etc. and only did FPS's or more casual things like Rocket League just to interact with some old friends and my male relatives
