Is it wise to enlist in the military at 35? Do they let you choose to do some kind of comfy office job or will you be forced into actually fighting in wars?

You can choose your job, not getting to choose your job is a myth. You just need the appropriate asvab score and depending on the job there could be a waiting list. Recruiters have quotas for the different jobs and might try to talk you into doing something they want to satisfy their quota for or talk you out of something they have satisfied their quota for. As someone who got a 99 on the asvab I can tell you that it’s piss easy you just need to know the english lexicon well, know trigonometry, and the basics of how an engine works and the names of engine parts.

You'll get the clotshot then go through basic training with a bunch of zoomers getting yelled at by diversity hires and having no freedom in your day to day activities. After that they send you wherever they want to.
Better be in good shape. would be embarssing getting out performed by a bunch of low test zoomers

Think 35 is the cutoff without a waiver so make your decision soon

I already got the vaccine so that doesn't matter, but I'm too physically weak and lazy to do any kind of physical training so if that's required then I'm not interested.

One caveat: the military only guarantees to TRAIN you for the job you select. They can in fact put you into any job they have a need for after that.

They don't even let you join past 25

If things ever get dire enough to where they let 35 year Olds join up you are NOT gonna want to join.

I got a 98 and already had a security+ cert along with work experience manufacturing electronics for a living and doing hacking competitions and speak multiple languages but they told me I wouldn't be able get a TS or be able to do hacking work because I was charged with less than half a gram of weed and I don't want the gene therapy.

You'll be marching in the desert and take orders from Officer tranny and Sargent Shaniqua. Also, your commander in chief has dementia.
