Shit, where to start...
What is your education level?
Who do you know? Jobs are typically about "who" you know and not "what" you know.
What skills do you have?
What does the mother of your kid do? How old is she? What is her education level?

im not one to judge and im certainly not usually one to preach... but you wanted a mature, honest opinion, so here it is:
cmon man! you're 19 years old and you have a girlfriend and a kid, no steady job, and you're posting piss drunk on a monday night on a fucking internet message board. sure as hell sounds to me like you need to pull your shit together and take some responsibility QUICK, before your shitty decisions affect your child instead of just you.![]()
It sounds to me like you have no "real" job skills, no school or education since HS ( I am not saying any of this is bad.,....that was me YEARS ago ).......if you and your girlfriend are close....get married, join the Air Force and take her and the kid with you. Army is great if you wanna go to Iraq and play in the dirt....Air Force....IMO, you have better opportunities at better career paths. The Army has it all but is more focused on the combat....Air Force is not. My brother joined the AF when he was 18...he is 2-3 years younger than me and will be RETIRING in 4 or so years with 20 years in the Air Force! Me...well...my job that I kinda like pays well....but I sure am not looking at retirement pay along with a new full time jobs pay in a few years like he is. Even if you only joined for like 4 years...at worse you spend the next 4 years with your new wife and child and if you really don't enjoy it, come back home and use the schooling and experience to get a great paying job. Pick a career in the AF like computer networking or aircraft mechanic....something you can take with you when you leave. On the other hand you may end up loving it....my brother decided to stay in and now he will be reaping the benefits when he retires and pulls in 2 checks. Obviously there is so much to consider and we do not know your entire situation.....but I will agree with the above....if money is that tight.....why are you spending so much money on beer!? Perhaps the armed forces will teach you some discipline and structure.....and if you stay in it, you get the chance to see other countries which would be nice. My brother....yeah, he went to Iraq for 6 months and he supervised the private citizens that came on base to do stupid crap like janitors and such. Army...youll probably be in the mess....AF....gravy train and better schooling. Dont get me wrong...NOTHING wrong with the Army....but you want to look down the road....in 4 years you could step out of the AF with Microsoft certifications and 4 years of experience in computer networking...step into a $60,000 a year or more job.

if u want money in the service go NAVY. and be on a sub. sub pay plus sea pay equal $$$ over anything you get in army or af. unless you do something dangerous. i would go ballistic missile sub. 6 months at sea 6 months in port with about 6 to 8 weeks off. if you are smart (book smart) which i doubt u are from the position u find your self in. i would go nuclear. great pay outside of the service.

If i were you i was just sit and think of what it is you want to do, or wouldnt mind doing for a career. Theres numerous things out there you can get into that pay fairly decent with leads to promotion. You just gotta figure out where you wanna start. For instance I know a couple people that wanted to get into the automotive business. They started as sales/ass managers at discount tire and then went to a dealership to be a service advisor. At DT they made like 550-600 a week.....then went to a dealer bringing in almost a grand a week, and thats at the bottom of the totem pole. Thats just an example. Just find what you like, find out how to get into it, then do your best. You might have to work two jobs while trying to get ready for what you wanna do. But like someone said before you gotta do what you gotta do. I feel like people use the army as a cop out. Like they have no other choice. Theres plenty out there but few are willing to sacrifice and do what has to be done to get what they want.

I'll be hitting the 4 year mark with the Army National Guard in December. I've got friends in Marine Reserves also. The Guard and Reserves is a great way to get training to get your life started and help qualify for civilian jobs, get money for school, serve your country, etc. The only thing is once you have a good job and productive life on the civilian side, it's seems to hold you back from progressing and doing things. Drill weekend gets in the way, being randomly called up gets in the way, etc. If I could do it over again I'd have gone Active Duty from the beginning and know many people in my unit that say the same. I'd much rather be full time military and have it be my life than part time and have it be something that gets in the way of my life. Go full time and get years of every day experience in a field, travel, get the same money for school, come to the Civilian world with years of full time experience and training to offer and be able to focus 100% without that interruption known as Guard and Reserves. Also, the training and organization of Guard and Reserves units pales in comparison to Active Duty. It's one thing to get deployed with an Active Duty unit that's highly organized and trained up. It's another thing to get deployed with a Guard unit that bullshits training and can't even organize a weapons qualification day properly.Originally Posted by quickdodge®
Fair enough?
Alright , i see a few people bashing me about last night , i didnt buy the alcohol a very good friend of mine just got out of prison and he brought over two cases .

19 actually and my parents are kinda stingy when it comes to me but when it comes to my son they help when needed .
its gunna be rough at first , it always is from what i hear...but you should of really thought about that before blowin ur load like the other dude said...it will work out...dont sell the s13 tho![]()
the s13 has been sold bro , and actually thats a fucked up story behind the condom thing .
well that is directly related.. if they pay for your two year schooling they wont have to help for your son anymore.. and being able to fully support your son isnt it helping your son?!?Originally Posted by s13slider

they wont pay for my school they dont look it like we do .
really dont want to start a huge argument, i know there is alot of ppl that have a strong opinion against this, but i believe if a child was not planned and the pitcher and receiver dont have the means to afford one.. abortion ftw.. especially at your age, college and a kid? ..Originally Posted by s13slider

^^ but when i come to think about it, its a fucked up thing to say after you actually have had the kid..
abortion is murder bro .
Trying to relate your life to a song = emoOriginally Posted by s13slider
Is it really? Again trying to justfy your decision with a song = emo. Or was that just a drunken statement?Originally Posted by s13slider
No it doesn't.. But it is one more in a long line of bad choices. Which brought you to where you are now. Asking for advice from people you don't know and have never met, while in a drunken stupor. = emoOriginally Posted by s13slider
Good news is there's help available.![]()
Need help with your IA addiction = emo
growing up and being a man is supporting your family... doing what it takes to do so should be #1 priority. i'm sure you will do what is best for you/family.Originally Posted by s13slider
in that case, im a serial killerOriginally Posted by s13slider
abortion is not murder bro. sperm + egg within 3 months is still nothing.. IMO.. i know this is a really delecate subject.. but to each his own opinion.. if i accidently had a kid right now, its either
a. abortion.
b. adopt.
c. keep it and fuck up my college.
Werd, and don't take what I said the wrong way. Ain't nothing wrong with earning a living serving this country. Just make sure you make your choices for the right reasons.
or not!!!!!Originally Posted by s13slider

^^ thats the one i was talking about.. i don't care whether he is emo or not, its just dumb to have a kid and take a hoe back after that^^ and then even worst, think about leaving out of the country to the army/navy? hope you like sharing your girl w/ other dudes..
he needs to post some pics of the hoe so when we see her around we know she is up for the :idb::idb::idb:Originally Posted by Frög

Yeah, that's what I was going to suggest. If your parents are loaded, why WOULDN'T they want to pay for your education, to help you make a better life for yourself and for your family? School might not be the most fun thing, but most of the time the fun thing and the right thing to do are not the same. Think of your family, man, use that as your motivation whenever it gets tough.Originally Posted by Frög
