(also, Niketalk Fam... I wrote topics about my girlfriend and questions about me joining the military. Yeah, my life is a total wreck right now... I'm def currently at rock bottom. Please I need decent answers to this just to help me cope as of right now.)
okay, I've been reading up on yahoo answers and have come across other people's questions about joining the military. I have a questions of my own though... I haven't yet looked at the jobs each service offers but I am decent with computers. I type 70 per words per minute and on my civilian resume I have had experience in office settings, warehouse and retail if that helps my chances.
I'm looking to join the Air Force, Navy or Army in that particular order if one happens to fail the other.
My current situation is I am 25 years old. I got kicked out of my house the other day, I attended 2 years of college and received up to 62 credits and I am now living with a friend in his dorm room while i figure out if I'm going to go to a homeless shelter or do all my service stuff in Albany, NY.
Would the fact that I have so many college credits configure into the service and they would promote me at a higher rank? How long does it take for you to hear back before you are deployed somewhere?
Please someone who has experience with this kind of thing help me. I'm in serious need of help and I am about 150lbs in weight and 6'2 so I'm not sure how much of a physical demand and strain they would put on me because I'm small in body.
A lot of people have been saying Air Force, Navy and leaving the Army last in thoughts of joining. I'm thinking about the Air Force, Navy and Army although no Marines because I'm not sure if I would be able to handle that 12-13 weeks of hell on earth, I'm mainly concerned with the amount of pushups they would ask me to do... I feel every other thing I might be able to pull off for certain.
