I go for MEPS soon. My dad is a Military Vet. He most definitely informed me of how to be as an officer. He included just bc you’re an officer you still treat them with respect and be there for your team in any way you can.
Finished MEPS. Doing the same thing and my father said the same. I’ve never been a power hungry individual anyways and I’ll make sure, if chosen that my rank stays at work and it doesn’t transfer over to my wife or kids. I’ve heard so many stories of “Officer wives” or military brats. I’ve also seen kids who came from military households with high ranking and they never flaunted it or acted any differently than the rest. I admire that. We can be a change for good in the navy for sure.
Had a Chief in the Navy get pissed because someone called him sir. He replied " Don't call me sir. I work for a living and I know who my daddy is". 😄That must be the difference!
Once you reach a level in certain jobs while enlisted you will begin to feel sidelined by some newer officers appointed over you. Sometimes they may lack knowledge you possess. That’s when you know you should either commmission, get out or shut up and retire 😂
I guess it depends on what you want out of the military. I enlisted because I want to actually learn a trade rather than telling those people what to do. I know a few who are going the officer route and I respect them, but I don’t like leading and I personally don’t see the point in going officer. I don’t mind the cons of enlistment as unlike a lot of people I know the meaning behind the madness and I can only get out what I put in. Hooyah.
Well, depends... in the Submarine Force for example, you can still be an enlisted person, but you can reach positions of leadership, and engineering like Repairs Planner and Estimator, where you are the one that designs and direct the engineering work on the submarines. I did.

I've had a horrible experience with naval officers. They are basically untouchable and it sucks. def gonna get out asap
Egos. My dad said that too
Egos and status. That’s why most are acting like an idiot.

I like those johnny cashs' in your profile pic. Wish they still had those
A lot of the engineers in the private sector hype you guys up 😂😂

@@tramainelewis8107 I'll see you in my division most likely!
officers have better living conditions, housing and pay.
Better pay of course.
Recommended going officer. You will get treated better.
Yeh, that's why I applied for OCS after boot camp. I made it through OCS after 8 months in the Navy.
@@howellwong11 That’s a smart move. Good luck in your career.

I always thought enlisted run the boat, officers fly off the boat or command the boat.
I'll just stay a Petty officer until my contract ends. Becoming an officer will extend my contract.

Enlisted keep officers out of trouble. Senior NCOs teach junior officers how things work.
Officers are the landowners. Enlisted are the peasants.
