      one of them tried to corner me into agreeing to let him come pick me up and talk in person. probably because he felt it would make me more compliant if alone with him. like a child predator.

        I see, I always assumed it was either people giving their info themselves or others did to prank you. I guess it makes sense for a country who loves perpetual war.

      Yeah, but if you go to a good high school they send recruiters who may tell you to commission instead of only to enlist

      And no they don’t take “ineligible” for an answer. I didn’t want to die for oil, but even if I did they wouldn’t let me, but they also wouldn’t leave me alone.

        I hear one can take the ASFAB, book the follow-up interviews, etc., but drop the mic on the pre-boot questionnaire that tries to suss out your “conscientious objector” leanings and never have to worry about another spam call/email (barring a draft). Or, so I hear. It’s been decades, now. 😜🤌🏼
