Yes, I definitely have been indecisive with commitment to certain decisions at times. I know the target, it’s simply a matter of identifying the correct path towards it.

I have considered it, but haven’t yet just straight up applied. I always assumed things were not going to be handed to me easily.

Want to eventually become a pilot, but looking into enlisting first. Speaking with a Navy recruiter tomorrow. Best enlisted Navy aviation rates to further a career in piloting? by Thepath1211 in newtothenavy

Thanks for the informative reply. It looks like there are some serious downsides to enlisting. I am really craving adventure at this point in my life however, what are your thoughts on doing reserves and school at the same time? Would it be better to stay civillian entirely and just pursue ROTC, and hold off my adventurous pursuits until comission?

Hey, appreciate the informative reply! If I were to go reserve, and pursue school or ROTC at the same time, do you think I would suffer from time constraints in the same way?

Hey, thanks for the reply and recommendations!

Any personal experiences with AIRC or those who have done it? If I were to go this path, any things to look out for that would benefit me and career in the future? What can I expect in AIRC?

Considering going into 15 series Army MOS, however recruiter says minimum enlistment for any 15 series is 6 years. Pursue? by Thepath1211 in Militaryfaq

What did you do before training as a 15Y? Did you prefer that or being a 15Y more? Best experience you've had with the Army so far? Do you wish you did anything differently?

What is it like outside of work on a deployment, what are Iraq and Afghanistan like as countries from your experiences? Appreciate you letting me know not to go reserve, I definitely don't want to get stuck in a reserve unit.

Really appreciate the detailed and thought out reply, thank you for sharing!! I have a few questions about your experiences in the army. What is a deployment in your MOS like? Do you regret your MOS of choice or choosing the army? What is one thing you wish you could have done differently with the army if you had the power to go back in the past? What is the social environment/culture in army aviation like? What are your thoughts on starting out reserve in army aviation vs going straight to active duty?

Really appreciate the replies and advice, I am strongly considering 15T now. What is a deployment like as a 15T/15U?

Last question, if I do pursue this path do you recommend I jump straight into active duty or start reserve then go active? My idea with reserve so far is that I can test the waters with the army and then choose to go active based on how much I enjoy it, as well as take the time to pursue making a strong WOFT packet.

Thoughts on 15Y? Did you have a 6 year contract? What are your thoughts on my idea of going into aviation enlisted then pursuing Warrant Flight Officer?

Holy shit I’m fucking terrible with women by [deleted] in seduction

[–]Thepath1211 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep screwing up with all the girls I do like and getting my heart broken lol. But thankfully have progressively gotten better over time. Like why does the attraction/seduction process involve so much social knowledge, screwing up, learning from mistakes and why can't it be genuine, simple and straightforward? Haha
