    Do not join the military. I'm a vet. There are a few vets here. I think we all agree - stay the fuck away. Just want to get that out of the way.

    So here's my actual advice: set your expectations low and float around. Eventually you'll find something that pays the bills and leaves you not wanting to gouge your eyes out at the end of the week. I did this after the military and it served me well. I eventually ended up in the PMC trajectory though I would have never guessed that's where I'd end up. But you needn't be a vet or have a degree to do this. My buddy was a retail manager for 10 years and now he's a piercer, poking holes in people. Pays the bills, he likes the hours, it works for him.

    Don't expect to find your dream job because that shit does not exist. My theory about people who love their job: they either don't care about money or they were already independently wealthy. No one loves their job; by definition it's not supposed to be fun otherwise they would call it fun instead of work, and rich people would horde all the fun for themselves.

    While you're figuring it out, I'd probably suggest keeping your romantic relationships light and definitely try not to spawn.
