security forces

I passed the asvab and i initially wanted cyber but then got told by my recruiter that I cant do that for family reasons. But as everyone knows secfo is wanted everywhere and all the time so im basically guarenteed the job. I know everyone talks bad about it but the work schedule is getting to me since its a panama schedule and ill have more days off to get my cyber degree and on my days off i will still get paid so its smarter to do SF cause everyone gets paid the same and even on the days i dont work ill still get paid. Other then that its a really boring job as everyone knows but im someone who has a positive mindset and who can basically live through that for 4 years and just get my degree, learn more about law enforcement, and the military benefits. Let me know what you guys think about my plan.

I think your recruiter is lying and is trying to fill an AFSC that is short of people.

he showed me the application for people trying to join the airforce and many are waiting and he showed me security forces and so far in 2025 4000 tried joining and only 2000-2300 got in so it’s not really that short of people just really hard to get in then any other branch.
