I WOULD suggest you do AmeriCorps... but it's very diverse. Even the mostly-white states's programs (maine, vermont) are not-metaphorically gay.

I don't know if you could hide your power level. Also you don't make much money in AmeriCorps.

That's gonna be a yikes from me chief.

Don't blame you. I did my AmeriCorps years before being redpilled.

I couldn't handle it now.

I've got to wake up in the morning and be able to send the "Good morning kings, lets get this bread" tweet.

I can't do that unless I am getting that bread

How much does it make?

You said 20k a season but how long is a season?

20k for 3.5 months if there's a burdensome amount of over time and hazard pay.

With less experience you'll make less per hour. I can't tell you if the physical pain and "hurry up and wait" chaos/monotony is worth it.

And, of course, small, but non-zero chance of injury or death.

It's probably less deadly than driving a semi truck though.

Honestly 20k a month doesn't sound that bad

Oh no, I meant per summer

Yeah my bad

Do I need to go to school for it?

Like a college or something where I have to listen to why I should let black transvestites breastfeed my son and pay them an arm and a leg for it?

No, I know people who have gotten on engine and hand crews without college degrees.

You might need to attend a fire school, which is a skills focused thing (with physical test), depending on what org you're applying to.

Sometimes the agency provides it, sometimes it outsources it.

Would I have to pay for that, and if so how much?

I hate to say "it depends."

Look for "wildland fire red card certifications"

I am getting a ton of like private companies on google too

It's directing me to the usajobs.com website so I think I will check that tomorrow and see if that sheds anymore light on the situation.

Yeah, don't fork over much money.

Oh cool

It is reddit-tier, but it might have some info

Minimal soy

Yeah it's got a really good thread

Dude is a year younger than me but the same story.

I'll look into the air force too.

It'll make my parents happy but not my gf, it really do be like that sometimes.

Only you can know what is best for you. Good luck!

Yeah thanks man!

Hey everyone. I just want to start by sharing something that has done more for my mental health than anything else I've done. It's called vipassana meditation, and it's the technique Buddha taught. Everyone is a bundle of knots, and this technique eventually unties all those knots. www.dhamma.org is the website for finding courses, which are offered at a dozen centers in the US. The organization is financed completely by the donations of previous students. If you have the time, and you don't have severe unresolved trauma, I can't recommend it highly enough.

No rituals or blind acceptance involved. It's very rational, and you will be able to see for yourself how your mind and body influence each other and how you create your own suffering.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Just got a meeting set up with my recruiter

@Trashboat air force?
