theres no reason to feel like the military is a "last resort". its a great opportunity to, like you said, better yourself and jumpstart a high paying career.

you wouldn't see anything extreme. i mean, the most they'll ask you to do is locate a target via satellite and puch a button, if even.

not everyone in the military are "psychopathic meat head conservatives". youre not there to discuss your political views and such. in fact, you dont even have to say a word on how you feel. just keep stuff to yourself.
and so what if they are all dumbasses. that gives you a chance to take leadership over them, increasing your chance to stand out to officers and get promoted faster.

no one is gonna make fun of you for wearing glasses tk. thats middle school shit. besides, youre tk. you will make those glasses cool and people would wish they had em too. and i read somewhere that they offer LASIK or PRK vision correction for free or something. contact a recruiter and ask about that along with other inquiries
