I wonder what low density MOS that belongs to. Usually the biggest bonuses go to MOS that don't see a lot of promotions, at least that's how it was explained to me at my old unit.

Yeah I remember hearing that, too. Though back in '08 filling the infantry and ranger slots granted massive bonuses. Now days that's unheard of. I am curious what that bonus is attached to. I'd imagine 88M drivers or something shitty like CBRN. Neither of which would appeal to me unless the bonus was 100k.

I waited a year for the navy because it was the only branch that guaranteed to train the enlistee in his chosen vocation. I felt super bad for the dropouts.

Damn, I bet you could. Imagine how much it would sting to have a 16 penny nail jammed into the tip of your caulk.

I wanted too, buy my dad talked me out of it. He was in 13 years. Unfortunately he talked me into college which I never finished. Wish I would have known more about vocational schools or some of the 2 year programs at the local community college I went to.

my cousin got me all the way to the marine recruiting office. the girlfriend at the time talked me out of it.
going into the marines would've been a mistake, but being support staff in the army would've worked plenty fine for me...

Only if you're from the Tri-State area or Bahston.

starting to seriously look into sheds. tired of staring down the yard appliances in the garage. really need a new garage, but i already know the feature creep of building a new garage, would end up with a new mortgage. need to find a wealthy girl that gets bored with her money, or win the lottery.
wow, storage is expensive. most 8x10's of decent quality start at $4k... found a dirt cheap steel shed with no floor for $400. and then it'll be another $400 in treated lumber to build a mobile platform of a floor... i guess $800 is a heck of a lot cheaper than $100k...
