Credit problems (even pretty reasonable credit problems) are a major no no in the military. And since he's been ordered to court already, and is on the verge of Bankruptcy it will be dicey.

I would say zero chance a theater major is going to be commissioned with debt problems. I mean zero offense by this, but military deals with a different kind of theater anyway.

If you were a doctor, engineer, lawyer, something of high demand they might work with your debt problem.

They view debt as a liability, as you are prone to take bribes. This keeps you from getting a security clearance, which is important for enlisted folk, let alone officers.

I'm not saying don't try it, can't hurt and he is right. You'll have a house and food. O-1s make around 26k a year, plus probably 10k more in nontaxable/ungarnishable food and housing money.

You might be right, but I'd look into it anyway. It's hard to believe that we'd have an inflexible policy of rejecting people with credit issues while we're involved in 2 significant military operations.

this is the kind of negative stuff you are going to encounter but you need to focus on your stress debt and ignore this crap. I remember I was a theatre major too and I was working at quick trip. I told my boss I DON"T need this shit I am a theatre major, I was lord tybolt in romeo and juliet, he then said i should apply my major to ACTING like a quick trip employee. Well I stole a bunch of sunflower seeds and rooster booster energy drink and quit and applied the stress I saved to my stress debt. I am still in debt today. but i don't let assholes like that get too me

How would it be theft without pre-meditation? How would you even prove that?

Wow... :spock: ... that was your stance? Did you prance on your way out with your sunflower seeds saying, "Dignity, oh dignity... where art thou?"

Well, he realizes the error of his ways now so I wouldn't browbeat him over it, but continuing to borrow money you have no hope to ever repay is theft, in my opinion.

But the bankruptcy laws are not a "get out of jail free" card anymore. He will pay for it one way or another.

You'll have the best luck with Marines or Army. This is only because they have a more difficult time recruiting for obvious reasons. Especially during wartime!

They also have a lot more job options, and there may be some that don't require any type of security clearance. Those kind of jobs are rare though. They won't be any of the "good" jobs either.

By all means, call the recruiter today. They are masters at getting waivers passed and cutting red tape. I just thought I'd let you know that the military frowns on bad credit as much or more than any employer/renter/business/bank.
