Once your finish ait you probably be assigned to a hospital and work either in the hospital or an outline clinic. Main reason I dont enjoy it are mainly my own issues. I told was told the job would be like being a medic that learn eye stuff but you don’t learn medic stuff in this job just eyes. Also the job is very simple and repetitive, depending on your unit and if they’re short on another position you might be doing something completely different……. Like me being put in an office to do paperwork for my company I probably sent 3 months doing the actual mos the 2 1/2 years I been in. But everyone experiences are different and different people want different things lol. If it wasn’t for my uniform I wouldn’t believe I was a soldier.

    • @golfery5119
      @golfery5119 6 місяців тому +1

      You already know that if you enlist in the army or the Marines and you aren't married, you will be in barracks that have bad conditions like mold.
      If you enlist in the army with a good job and get assigned to a unit that isn't FORSCOM, there's a possibility your barracks might not be as terrible
      You know if you join the navy , conditions more likely than not will be terrible on ship, and if you are enlisted and not married, you might be in barracks that are floating barges. But at least you can move out the barracks in the navy as e6 and possibly e4, as opposed to, in most cases, e6 in the Marines and army with some cases e5 in the army (with unicorn exceptions being earlier like if you are in a rare MOS at a rare assignment).
      So living in bad conditions in the military (outside the air force, space force and coast guard) if you are enlisted not married, with lack of privacy, is a given.

      Either you join the air force or space force or coast guard where you'll not only live in not so terrible barracks, but (and this is more important) you'll be guaranteed to be allowed to move out much sooner (e4 or even e3), or if you still want to do army, get a good MOS that will have you at a no FORSCOM unit. You'll still have to stay in the army barracks longer (e6 or maybe in some cases e5) but at least your barracks won't be quite as terrible as they would be in a FORSCOM ("army army") environment where youre really more likely to deal with mold, no hot water, etc. on top of lack of privacy on top of fuck fuck games on top of having to stay in the barracks till youre e6 or maybe in some cases e5.
      Or just plan on getting married as soon as possible.

      If you have really toxic leadership that screws you over and neglects you, you aren't going to the promotion board and Basic Leadership Course when you should go at your three year mark.
