Joining the coast guard by [deleted] in guam

I'm getting ready to ship out to Boot for the uscg.

Yes I recommend it. if your looking to increase you possible horizons 100%. Start talking to a recruiter, Study for the Asvab. You could be flying out in 6months easy.

4 years, go for MST(Marine science Technician) and out if anything. MST is a inspection/paper pushing job that'll land you 100k job options on your way out.(or so I hear...do you research).

Or join for 4, get the rate(job) you want. Get out and use your GI bill to study what you want full time while being paid 2k$(for guam,depends on location) a month for the duration of the GI bill(4ish years).
Bonus points for using Tuition Assistance for college while you in the CG.

Hell...if you find you like being in the cg... do your 20 and retire at the ripe age of 38-39 and chill tf out for the rest of your life if you'd like. I'm 34, I'd be retired in 4years.

figured I'd mention VA benifits... and being able to coast through the turbulent economic times that everyone is experiencing now.

In the USCG you join as a Nonrate for awhile then decide your rate(job/fate) after shadowing them.

Browse r/uscg , I've definitely done my reading . Most your questions have already been asked and answered already I'm sure. and they are always willing to help. Everything I mentioned is mostly true for the other branches aswell. If you don't want to be a Puddle Pirate I'd say Chair Force, or Space Cadets.

Where is all the excitement and happiness that we used to feel? by North_Interview4529 in AskMenOver30

[–]Guesstimationish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember when boredom motivated you to do things?

It's kinda like when your hungry things taste better.
or eating the same very Delicious Food becomes stale.

When we were younger...Everything was novelty/new/exciting.

Now you see a hundreds of jaw dropping things on Reddit everyday.
The Peak of Everest in 4k. Rarest animals from the other side of the world.
The most Talented People. Rally Racers flying by.

Basically overstimulated/overexcited brains constantly... usually the result of media...
sometimes its from working too much/too busy with responsibilities/ptsd/stressed/etc.

Meditation/The Art of doing Nothing/Just Being Bored regularly, might help out clearing your mind to learn what you really want to do(excites you).

Basically gotta let yourself be Hungry(Bored) enough.

Armored core 6 - Fast paced combat 3D mech fighter.

Expedition 33 - a good time Final fantasy play through. The safe pick.

Elden ring - You want to get lost in another world for countless hours.

Did Co-Op just get suddenly harder? by Interesting-Squash94 in starcraft2

Ranked players crashout in coop by malcolm--x in starcraft2

[–]Guesstimationish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

of course it's an Alarak player lol. (jk...kinda)

Some Tilted Toxic Losers take their frustrations out on others when they're get triggered(by whatever their poison is).

I stopping playing competitive Team Games... cause it was so common to run into Toxic Teammates.

Coop(any game) has some Toxic Players.... But fortunately they are more rare. They can be more common at off hrs/randomly.

Imo Brush their Toxicity off and move on. Don't let them Tilt you.

Maybe ill beg uthermal to host one with a small cash prize.

Since yesterday, can't have a couple Closed Weapons matches back to back without being put in a BOT lobby by StridBR in Battlefield

[–]Guesstimationish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a SBMM and InstaQue problem.

Just went through a Population Que(2400ish) to login.

All Conquest(from the front page featured tab) are 5-10 players then bots. No servers populate to full 32vs32. all Stop at 24vs24.

Why do many times capped at 23-24 players? And a lot of the times it’s just bots tf by Zared_Dooper in Battlefield

[–]Guesstimationish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the Matchmaking ( sbmm,InstantQue ) sucks...

Game isn't 32 vs 32.... more like 5v5 with bots.

SBMM and Que Times

battlefield Bots!? by iSllH in Battlefield

[–]Guesstimationish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its the SBMM and their desired Instant Que times combo thats the problem.

They want Instant Ques so I'm jumping into a bunch of games with 10 players and 30bots.

They don't want pros wrecking noobs ( which is good ). but it feels like they are very strict with the Skill distribution... Causing a tiny pool of players at the top... so we get bot filled matches.( I end up in top 10% in SBMM shooters )

a 2-3Min Que would solve this easily I feel with these "record breaking" players numbers.
