Just don’t put too much of your faith in politicians.
Perhaps paradoxically, despite being someone who only wishes to be left alone, I want to join the military, a place where by definition nobody leaves you alone.
walking contradictions are fun.
That's not a contradiction if you've only formulated the wish, not done the deed
I am actively working on the deed.
Not necessarily. I’m assuming you’re not a total hermit, you seek to the choice of being able to be left alone. Probably not to be left alone all of the time.
I'm not retarded, so I'm getting a 4 year degree before I go in.
officers make more.
I'm not a total hermit, there are a few people that I enjoy the company of
It’s not a bad gig.
but like
formal gatherings with a ton of strangers, I won't go there unless I have to.
I am a total hermit. I have my bat cave and I like it.
According to a recent video I watched, the average person can only have a handful true friends, the rest are just people they know
I have like two people I'm fanatically loyal to and about two other close friends. Everyone else is 'acquaintance' at best.
Tolerated, maybe liked, never anything more.
Still, I carefully ensure that I myself am liked, because I have no time for enemies.
That's nothing out of the ordinary
It used to be normal pre 21st century
I want to join the military for veteren benefits so after I get out of the military I can fuck off and be left alone again but with better stuff.
Also because muh nationalism
or just do what you want all the time
Not sure if true
Only the VA
And I think it’s better now
Private companies do veterens discounts too
And I count "money" as a veteren benefit
that is such a minimal
If your retire in the military the benefits are very good
yeah if you actually are useful enough to hit 20 years
You actually make out like a bandit
but you have to be on your A-game the entire time and be really
REALLY good
They do not like keeping people on for 20 years.
Costs money.
Job positions really narrow
And if you don’t promote you get discharged
yeah
Could be worse though
I do have ideals
