And on the opposite end I've met people who found that their experience in the Army/Marines/Navy/Air Force was a waste of time and they hated every minute of it. It set them back years, and they were better off just going to whatever college they originally planned.gorillahertz said:Hell, that's what I did! And no, I didn't make a career out of it and I hated most of it, but I still feel like I'm a better person for having gone through it. And it looks good on a resume.Radeonx said:I'd think it through for a while just so you are sure that you want to actually join the Navy.
This seems like a very large impulse decision, and considering that you're pretty much choosing to make being in the Navy your career for a while, I'd think it through more than "Fuck this, I'm bored. Let's join the Navy!"
It is different for every person.
