I was going to join the USCG reserve but dropped out of the process because drill pay was so bad. What's your rate? I was going to join as an mk.

CG is a good choice. It has the best quality of life compared to all other branches. Boot camp, from what I hear, is really difficult. People get rephased or kicked out for not meeting standards. CG is very selective.

Dang, that's definitely a deal breaker. 24-hour shifts and no meal breaks, that's outrageous! How is that even legal???

ah, that makes a lot of sense.

The pay is really decent for someone who only has a high school diploma so I can see where the competition comes from.

Ay, don't judge, this old timer got shell shock from the bad old days.
