localmartyr Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 don't get it twisted, i'm no hippie or tree hugger. i just don't want to be here anymore, but im unemployed, dead broke, and in debt, so vacation is out of the question. the recruiter said i would have to sacrifice many things including being around my family, my friends, and basically the general public, they asked if i wanted to know where i'd be sent...i wanted to know where to sign. Would anyone else chill with HIV positive deaf Somali children for a free trip to Africa? but seriously... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SystemFailure Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 There is actually a lot more to the training and processing of your application. The application process alone takes 6 months to a year. Then training for close to a year. Are you proficient in another language? Do you have a degree in any sort of human services/social science program? Join the Americorps. Charity starts at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOW as to the peace corps, go for it dude. if you aint got shit going on in your life now, and you're a waste of space and recognize this fact - DO IT. you'll probably build up character if the aids doesnt kill you first.

LUGR Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Vulcan was inspired to enlist after he saw SQUIRREL's submarine pictures. At this point in life I am way too selfish to join the peace core....at least I am honest though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhMyGosh! Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I dont know how far you made it in school, but most peace corps positions require a bachelors degree also. A family member of mine was in the peace corps in Togo. She said it was one of the most amazing experiences shes ever had. Its a pretty serious commitment though...not a "im tired of being here, I want to go somewhere else" kind of thing. I would suggest putting a bit more thought into it. But hey, what do I know.

ernest hemingway Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 joining the peace corps definately isnt something you should consider if you "just dont want to be here anymore." what happens when you get wherever they send you and you just want to get out then?. theyll probably send you to the middle of batshit nowhere and leaving just wont be a readly available option. try spending a couple weeks alone in the woods and see if its still a dope idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!@#$% Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 people know what's up it's not about being recruited, it's about being accepted. and it is hardly a free fuckin trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 97% of 12 oz couldn't hang with the Peace Corps. The ones that could deal are ex- or current military, trainhoppers and anyone who's lived on the streets or cut off from civilization for extended periods of time (and that's just dealing with the reality, the commitment and compassion involved are a whole other issue). I'm no exception, I'm sure I wouldn't make the cut. My health is no bueno, definitely not good enough to zap off to a third world country for a year or two.
