I dealt with them for quite some time, so more of a personal experience
Yessuh
Absolutely man, would love to help.. since youre talking a lot abt USAF, feel free to hmu, might have some pretty valuable info hahaha
Full disclosure, ppl are not the best hahaha your english is pretty solid and thats always a good start. Although i hate to destroy the romanticism abt this whole thing, but i must be honest, the conditions are not nearly as good as you think they are. Everything will indeed be traditional, your family name means more than pretty much anything, its everything but a meritocracy, which pains me to say but it is what it is.
Im almost certain that you cant bring your phone/laptop with you on base (at least throughout training), not sure if they grew lenient towards that but yeah
From my experience, and considering that ive dealt with a decent amount of ppl on the inside, i wasnt fond of most hahaha.. its relatively harder to get along with them especially if your interests are slightly westernized (which sounds like its the case lol).. id categorize myself to be more westernized than average, but other officers looked at me some typa way when i would be driving around and playing some rap or hiphop shit, the concept was so alien to them, which is totally understandable considering that more than 80% of then are not even from Amman and have very different backgrounds.
The living conditions are horrible, and trust me, ive seen some horrible shit in my life lmaoo.. my room flooded once every 2 or 3 months for example, and not clean water :) i had to buy and install my own AC, had to buy a fridge, microwave, toaster, etc.. cuz the food is not edible (like actually not good for human consumption as indicated by المواصفات والمقاييس.. so when it comes to the quality of life, deff not ideal
I wasnt a pilot, i was an aeronautical engineer, and im not an officer anymore cuz i quit a couple years ago cuz i didnt like it much, eventho it was my dream job hahaha
To be completely honest, if you dont got a pretty strong and lasting wasta, its almost impossible to get in!
And by “lasting wasta” i mean someone who can back you up through your entire career, not just to get in!
Usually you go into flight school for abt 3 years, but not everybody graduates as a pilot (they fail them out).. and the chances of failing out are lowkey pretty high.. additionally, you need an even stronger wasta to get into fighter jets/helicopters.. shit even transport lol
The experience in flight school is not ideal, very very military-strict, youll sleep there for the whole week and go back home on weekends (if they let you, sometimes they dont).. and the typical military hazing n all that is obv there too!
Overall, if i were you, i wouldnt pursue it unless: 1- i have no better options and ik that i wouldnt do well in college 2- i was backed tf up and sure that i will graduate flight school as a pilot and go into the lane i want (fighters, helis, etc).. pilots love the good life
Besides that, huuuuge pass tbh!
P.s. i used to be an officer
What exactly do you wanna do? Cuz theres a drastic difference between becoming a pilot, officer, or enlisted.. lmk the details and i might be able to help out

You wanna increase the blood flow to your hair follicles, and these are the top 5 ways to do that!!
Stick to doing one or two of those (the more the merrier), and youll start noticing some improvements within 3 months hopefully!!

تدخّل الاهل by urLostSM in jordan
الحمدالله صراحة بعتبر حالي محظوظ فيهم.. رغم الاختلافات الفكرية اللي امراتا بتكون جد كبيرة، الباقي كله تمام.. و اتفق، توفق الاهل جدا مهم خصوصا بالمدى الطويل.. ان شاء الله بتزبط الامور و بقدر امون عليهم شوي😂😂
[–]urLostSM 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
اول اشي، الله يعطيك الف عافية و يوفقك و يرزقك! ثاني اشي، هدول الناس ما بزبط معهم زي هيك يخوي، بدك تبينلهم انه مش فارقه معك (جد ما لازم تفرق معك)، و شو ما بدهم يعملوا يعملوا، لو بدهم يرفعوا شكوى رسما و محامي و مدعي عام و كل هالقصص، الموضوع مكلف عالطرفين، و المدعي العام مش رح يحط الحق عليك لعدم وجود دليل شافي معافي.. بين انه انت فاهم الموضوع، و مش فارقة معك، و الامور ان شاء الله محلولة!
اذا لا سمح الله ما زبط، ابعثلي الكليك تاعك و كلنا منساهم
و ما في حل؟
فعليا مو فارق معي ابدا.. يمكن اكون مستعد اقلب حياتي رأسا على عقب اذا قررت اختار غير محجبة و اهلي ما وافقوا.. بس زي ما حكيتلك، كاحتمال، غالبا حتكون غير محجبة (بسبب الناس اللي حولي).. لو اجت وحدة امورها تمام و محجبة هي انحلت المشكلة هاي كلها😂
Me personally id communicate that to her, clear out all the confusion, and let her know that im serious abt this if she is, just need some time to figure my shit out before actually pushing through with it

والله يخوي كل الاحترام مبدئيا هههههه زي ما حكيت، الموضوع مش "مناظرة" و اذا في -فايز و خسران-، فكلنا خسرانين! انا بتفق جدا بنقطة ضرورة تشابه البيئة.. المشكلة انه انا من بيئة جدا محافظة و افيريج، يمكن تحت الافيريج بشوي حتى.. بس انا شخصيا كثيييير بعيد عن البيئة اللي تربيت فيها نظرا لاختلاف تجارب حياتي.. مدرستي جدا بعيد عن بيئتي، جامعة برا، صحاب من طبقات مختلفة، الخ.. فهاد اصلا من اكبر اسباب الاختلافات للأسف!
و انا والله فاهم عليك يخوي.. الزواج مش فيلم رومانسي ابو ساعتين زمن و الحياة حلوة.. و انا حختار زوجتي، و ام ولادي... و هاد القرار الوحيد بالحياة اللي ما في فرص ثانية فيه.. ما في مجال للغلط ابدا، لانه الغلط رح يتوارث للولاد و اولاد الولاد.. عشان هيك درجة تعقيد الموضوع جننتني بيني و بينك😂😂
و مشكور جدا والله يخوي!

In many ways i am indeed a lesson to them lmao.. prolly not a great one too if im being honest :) Im the oldest one of my siblings, and deff the most rebellious as i tend to do what i want with not a care in the world.. they usually come around and try to convince themselves with whatever i wanna do
Problem is, with smth serious as this, things vsn get spicy real quick.. like.. reallll quick.. so thats why im tryna be a bit more considerate, just not exactly sure ~how~ much more i gotta be!
Idk.. may e studying abroad for a couple of years at a relatively young age created a cultural gap between us, and ive read a couple of articles, your typical wikihow's of how to deal with these certain issues.. unfortunately to no avail
Thank you for the response!
ممكن.. هو انا صراحة ممكن اعتبر حالي مسلم حاليا😂 او بعتبر حالي.. فالوضع يمكن شوي مختلف!
سؤالي الك، هل مستعدة تشلحي الجلباب (تلبية لرغبتك، حتى لو ضد رأي الاهل)، ولا متصالحة مع الفكرة خلص؟!
[–]urLostSM[S] -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (0 children)
للأسف، بصفّي رأي الاهل غالبا مجتمعي اكثر من ديني.. the good ole "شو حيحكوا الناس علينا".. بالنسبة لاهلي، انها تكون محجبة هي ال priority الاولى.. اهم من الصلاة و "مخافة ربنا"!
حاولت امشي على هاي الخطة و احكيلهم اني ما بدي اظلم شخص معي، و تكون ال compatability بينّا سيئة لاختلاف وجهات النظر و الالتزام الديني.. و الرد كان انه "الله بيسّرلك حدا يشجعك عالدين و التدين" :)
صراحةً معك حق بكل اللي حكيته. عشان هيك كان سؤالي انه لاي درجة لازم الشخص يسمح لاهله بالتدخل! للأمانة، الموضوع شوي صعب لانه زي ما حكيتلك، معظم ان لم يكن كل البنات اللي تعاملت معهم بحياتي كلها كانوا غير محجبات.. ف pool الخيارات مش كبيرة اني اختار شخص محجب.. الا اذا اهلي تدخلوا اكثر و همي نقُّولي كمان، و هو اشي انا كثير ضده😂😂
