Navy.. what are posatives and negatives of being in the service

Question

as a chef.....also what are ways to become an E5 befor you join or when you there

Answer 1

Positives: the Navy's easy, it's usually safe.

Negatives: the country owns you, they can pretty much make you do whatever they want, including kill/die for them, you're on a boat full of guys, you're in the Navy and the rest of the military thinks you're g*y.

Answer 2

there are tons of positives. it just depends what your looking for. i'm in the marine corps and so far my positives include: tons of friends, being outside, staying in shape, no bills bc of barrack and etc., good connections, discipline and all the pride that comes with it. also, it looks really good for when you get out. especially if you can get a couple deployments under your belt.

negatives, that also depends. some people can't handle being told what to do. some people have no discipline or get in too much trouble, therefore, the higher ups make their life h**l. but thats not everyone and ends up being up to you from the beginning. then, of course, there is the posibility of dying. let me point out tho that most people that go do come back safely. tho that depends a little on your job. and, if you think about it, if you are destined to die, it could just as easily happen here from you getting hit by a bus or something.

its all just an experience. and definitely what you make of it. can't stress that enough, you want and try to make it fun or even just tolorable and it will happen.

GOOD LUCK!
