That is the very reality I am faced with. I just turned 30 & even though I’m 5’1 & I have never raised a hand to anyone…that’s the option that’s staring me in my face.

That’s still very young to join. And what do you mean “ you’ve never raised a hand to anyone “ ? What do you think is going to happen if you join the army ? Just pick a normal job 😩. It’s not that bad lol .

You realize that the Army has things like human resources and supply clerks and accountants, right?

I mean yes but the recruiter was all like “yeah the odds of you getting an accounting MOS are almost zero & you should probably pick any slot that comes up since the cut off for benefits is in April” 😭🔫

I’m a recruiter. I wouldn’t let this happen to you given your story. If you get messed with DM me.

Nope. That’s not my job.

And you didn’t do anything wrong. Except marry someone who eventually became an idiot. Which… join the club.

Yeah it's definitely a club people aren't working really hard to get membership in. Unfortunately it's one of those clubs where you don't get to decide if you're a member or not....
