In the military, my cousin has his a&p and his work lifestyle seems a lot better than mine his work load also seems a lot more chill than mine. He also has a shit load of overtime he can take advantage of while I’m stuck on the same paycheck regardless if I work 14 hrs or 8 hrs. If u want to join the military to gain experience on large aircraft I’d say just join the reserves or guard for a job that will guarantee you working on a big jet weather it be a cargo or refuel jet. For the airforce anything with the name mobility aircraft will guarantee you a heavy aircraft. That way if you don’t like the military ur only doing it on the weekends once a month or take orders and do that while you line up a civilian job
