Because I don't see myself in college...I don't feel like working some shitty job and barley getting by. And I am drunk so I don't even know what im talking about right now.

yeaz...a lot of my relatives have been in the marine corps...I dunno...if I can get over the fact that I get drug tested randomly every 1-30 days, I think I can handle it. Alcohol is ok I guess...

check out the navy and air force, not as risky situations, better pay and you get to see more of the world, I even had one friend get a 50g signing bonus\us for what he does up in Alaska ( for watching radar )
he even said you can get some damn good weed up there pretty cheap, though he no longer partakes of the herb good tax beaks and semi-cheep land.......

I'm not worried about danger. To be honest I don't give a shit if I live or die. Your going to die eventually...who cares. Better pay? its off of standard government pay...longer your in, the more you get payed of course. Higher ranked...get payed more. But being in this branch...over this branch, doesn't mean your going to get payed more. And yes it is shitty pay...but you also don't have to pay for a place to live, no health, no dental, you get 3 free meals a day in the barracks...theres not much you need to pay for.

As an enlisted man in the Army, I have to tell you to think about this, dude. The military is not for everyone. I'm one of those people. Personally, I hate this shit.
Also, in the Marines, if they need a certain job filled, it's just like Full Metal Jacket after bootcamp. The branches all get the same pay based on rank and time in service.
