so im thinking about joining the army. in the past, ive thought about the navy, but that was largely cuz i was bored. nowadays, though, there are different reasons. i made a foolish decision a few years ago and dropped out of school. at the time, i didnt care cuz i thought working in fast food the rest of my life. but now, i have a serious gf and a stepson to support. lifes expensive and we dont have much money at all, and things are getting bad financially. i have no training, no experience to speak of, and the only place i can get paid to train for a career is the military. if i could support us for 4 years in the military, then jill could finish school and id get out with a chance to get somewhere in life.
im just examining my options. no decisions have been made yet, but from the research ive done, it could be a good move for us.
