you're too young to be running a lot? it is sort of the other way around.... if you're thinking 'how much running is involved' you're probably too much of a pu5sy clot to do it.... that should be the last thing on your mind.

you'll be yelled at, you will have to take orders and bust your as5 for the white man. every other weekend, and 2 weeks a year.

there is a centre and yonge and sheppard you can go and talk to them there..

well.. of course... anyone who believes a marketer is stupid enough to deserve what they get.

the government is scum, the military works for the government, that should suffice as to who and what you are dealing with.

If you don't agree that the government is scum, name the last canadian prime minister who was not involved in at least one publicly known shady deal.

its okay even if we get drafted, im going for engineer, not a infantry so im pretty safe at the back haha

Engineers don't have safe jobs

You get trained to work with explosives and defuse mines.
You know what they taught me in the army???

The Engineer is the most respected person because they are the ones that will most likely die first

i was going to because getting paid 5k in 2 months seemed like a pretty good deal. but then they were saying wake up 5am every morning and run 16k and ****. im too young to be doing all that crap right now.

It all depends on the training

you can make 2-5000 BUT all depending on how intense/long your course it and how long you go away.

believe me being the "pet project" of the Sgts isn't easy....and the only thing you'll lern is how not to stand out.....
about running.... it depends.... every morning you'll do PT.... physical training.... more of a wake up exercise.... really its not that hard..... once you get used to it after the first week it will be like a normal morning for you.

i talked to the recruiter at the yonge n sheppard already and then went to service battallion cuz that was what Im interested in.

But straight up, Im going for the money, and to get built (hopefully lol). I do not exactly wanna be in the army, hehe but like gatherer said he convinced me pretty good and then I had second thoughts afterwards lol. I mean you join, make some money (at my age Ill get to keep the whole $5000 and grab a car when I get my g2), stay in the reserve grade 11, grade 12 and then since engineer relates to my career I will hopefully be able to get 50% back of my tuition fees. Sounds goood dont it lol, but yeah I guess its good if you know waht your going into, I mean I know its not gonna be easy but Im not gonna be a ***** and quit.

where did i say i was too young to be running a lot. i apologize then because i should've been more clear. what i'm too young to be doing is comitting myself for 2 months and the program they were telling me about was that i'd only go home on weekends. i don't want to do all this running during the summer when i should be relaxing myself makes me a ***** clot. i was simply stating that the money was good but i didn't want to commit myself because i want to be doing other things during the summer. so next time why don't you take whatever you have up your @ss before you start bashing people.

whats wrong with not wanting to wake up every morning at 5 in the morning to run 16k?! i was 15 at the time and at that time i prefered to be outside running ball or do something "fun".

I like how you can decided to die for your country at 18, but you cannot decide to have a beer and a cigarette.
