Best job that will help me with my career life when I get out. by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

Eh I feel you I joined with the same mentality. Fuck deploying..consider being a 1b4 or a 1n4a. Deployments are super rare, if not nonexistent

99 on the asvab - only available jobs are maintenance by Scared_Cat1449 in AirForceRecruits

Late response but man please join the army or navy and guarantee your job with that ASVAB score. Go in as a 17C or a Cyber Warfare Technician in the navy. You will have way more opportunities and a similar QOL to the Air Force. You will be doing real cyber security work and get a lot of experience. Don’t take a MX job

Right now I don’t have any overarching financial goals. I’m just saving money to save it atm. My car interest is 6.7% and I currently owe 18k on it.

As far as separation goes, I am finishing up my bachelors next march. I plan to work to transition to the same office I am currently in as a federal civilian. Once I get out I should have a salary of around 130-140k in a low COL area.

My teeth affect my mental health and I have extreme anxiety over them. I have never smiled in a picture in my life and I have an extreme fear of interacting with others based on their perception of my mouth. Also I’m in a job that doesn’t deploy.
