Are there any career paths similar to Army shit (i.e. sign up, stay fit, do what other people tell you to, get paid) that will not disqualify me for having Type 1 diabetes?

43 year old here, started college at 37, degree at 41, first job at 42 90k per year (CS). I always get angry over fags claiming its over at such young ages. Just cos some faggot kid In a snapback called you grandpa because he's 12 it doesn't mean shit.

work at a moving company/landscapping and then start your own business. You don't even need any equipment after you see how it's done for moving work. You can rent the equipment from u-haul and shit until you get big enough to buy your own.

why do you talk like a zoomer when you’re nearly 50?

>> No.51473391

Law enforcement, security, and intelligence to a degree. Civil/public service doesn't require fitness per se but can allow time for fitness and have goals and hierarchies.

Growing up poor I’ve always wanted to buy a snap back hat because all the cool kids at my hs were wearing them and always hand girls around them. Now I can literally buy all the SnapBacks in the world but I don’t because I’m not a fucking idiot and that’s shit is cringe.

Based. I don't necessarily think it's over, but I wish I could've done something I was interested in, instead of chasing the least shitty office jobs which still melted my soul out of my body just because they were the most likely to have health benefits so I wasn't stuck paying for the ~$2,200 worth of medical supplies I need to survive every month out of pocket.

>>51471061
Type 1 is fully genetic, have bad it since I was 12.

>>51470986
I know, even being able to go in the army for a few years when I was younger & getting education & shit paid for would've been a huge help

Construction would be ok fi it paid half decently. I don't know if breathing in sawdust/chemicals for 8 hours a day is worth $22/hour.

>>51473391
Have considered security/intelligence--I don't know if I can get into an LEO position with Type 1 Diabetes.

Paramedics are paid trash in my area and require at least 2 years of school, but you're right it would be at least an interesting & physical job.

Ugh, imagine still being in college in your 30s.
We had some 30 year old guy just like you in our dorms that would talk to all the 18 year old girls and invite them to his dorm.
It was so gross and creepy.
If your 30 or older you shouldn't be allowed inside a college.

I know you're a zoomer because you think snapback is some new term and not something that's been around in popular culture since at least the 80s.
