Where is the navy
NAVY PROS & CONS! *WATCH BEFORE JOINING* 2019 | OFFICIALSHIM
you too man what's up so coming to you
to date hold on let me go lock in
alright so today I got a video coming up
and I just got off of work so so bear
with me I still got my uniform on first
of all I already know y'all gonna try to
get on me cuz I know everybody else
mostly in the station anything like that
they were in the type 3 is the green
ones but my command we could still wear
the blues I mean the type where wheezes
I forgot we go away these ones until
October 4 this year but getting into it
today we're gonna be talking about the
pros versus the cons of the Navy right
now I have my ups and downs in the Navy
so far I've been in this month is two
years so I'd have had days where it's
like man I can't wait to I get out I
didn't days where's like man the Navy is
kind of cool so it's like a little
roller coaster but um I'm gonna do all
the pros first and then I'm gonna do all
the cons the first probe that I have
with uh with the Navy is whatever I
think of when you think of the military
and that's the benefits right so when
you think about it you get like all
right you really don't think I really
have to think about too much it's like a
you know health care dental stuff like
that it may not be the best
it's like civilian sector but I don't
pay for nothing I don't think about it
they you know I something wrong me I go
down to medical I get prescribe some
motrin or I'll beat you like they helped
me out or dental they help me out stuff
like that or somewhere to happen to me I
know I'm covered something like that so
I know I don't worry about too much when
it comes to the benefits I mean when it
comes to like that aspect and then you
got to think about um the GI Bill where
I get that for when I get out out of the
servers or I can use it while I'm in and
that's money towards college or if I
don't use I could pass it to save my
kids or something like that
or a spouse but most like they thrive
you like kids or somebody and then why
you're in the service they pay for you
like get to like your tuition and all
that type of stuff so that's a benefit
and then you wanna add on
I'm stationed overseas so I don't really
apply to me too much but like the
military discounts and stuff just
all the benefits that come with it stuff
like that right getting on to the next
problem
I say responsibilities right no it's
gonna make you like the Navy will give
you responsibilities to where you're
gonna like mature as a person right if
you come from like sure high school like
I did for the most part high school when
I was in debt for like eight months by
just working some with that so he
responsibilities that you never really
had unless you didn't have it like that
but like just uh well you notice like me
already had pretty much I don't know
growing up my parents had me I was
always like more of an independent type
of child or like they made me like look
out for myself sometimes most songs you
know stuff like that just so I wouldn't
be handicapped when I get to the real
world but you could tell some people was
like Hank like like hand hand walked
like all they like so I think my
responsibility you responsible you gotta
be responsible for your own actions like
whatever you do you gonna get in trouble
for it or it's like you gotta be working
the morning Matt what you did night
before you know you gotta be at work in
the morning on time you know stuff like
that or you know you gotta wash your own
clothes like mommy used to wash your
clothes you can say goodbye to that
unless you want to ship then you go turn
your clothes in but you still gotta
watch like your personal clothes you
know I'm saying you can go to the galley
and eat but let's say you in the house
or something like that and you gonna you
gotta learn how to cook you got a clean
and stuff like that but like little
responsibility you got you got pay your
own bills now like you got to grow up
kind of yeah I grew up in a sense
another Pro is traveling so so far I've
been at Navis about two years now and I
have been - let me name my countries I
bet you so I'm not gonna name the US
that's just stupid but all right so Jim
I've been in Japan I'm stationed here
right now I've been to Hong Kong I've
been to Busan I've been to jeju-do
and Busan and Jeju both are South Korea
I've been to Manila which is in the
Philippines I've been in Australia and I
may be like missing a little bit I've
been to Hong Kong twice that counts so
yeah I traveled around you know stuff
like that place I never thought that
I've been that would go cuz growing up
in Baltimore City might be my thought
like a vacation was like you know going
down like
I mean you're like going to Myrtle Beach
with my dad so I never would have
expanded my mind and think about like
different places I could go stuff like I
never even thought like like my favorite
port had to be like Australia like yeah
I straight was like you know me number
four I was say for the prompt for the
pros it's just general experience so
you're gonna you're gonna encounter
especially if you come to like a ship
you're gonna encounter a lot of
experience that most people in civilian
world would never account or like like
one day of your day right here in the
inter-service might be like the most
eventful day for somebody in a civilian
world like me like me I know living
living on a carrier like when we go out
to sea first of all every naval
personnel is a firefighter so you can
learn how to fight fires being on the
ship you get qualified and a lot of DC
calls so which is damage control so
whether it's firefighting you know pipe
patching fires flooding toxic gas all
type of stuff you learn how to abandon
ship know how to save lives like you're
uh I'm stretcher bearer quote so like
say you know save lives you do what
medical people do just a lot of
different experience a lot of different
things that you might have over the top
let's say you you go you for years and
you were to get out you have a lot more
experience is as a whole than somebody
that just has a degree in it and is
about to start working so you might be
more likely to get the job because you
move a well-rounded person and then just
always different experiences by meeting
different people from different walks of
life another pro of the Navy and the
money right now we don't get paid that
much I'll make a video more about my
pain and stuff like that but we don't
really get paid that much but when you
put it into factor on how much you money
you actually have to spend in the Navy
which isn't like leisurely spending then
you really get a lot of money because if
you don't want to eat out you can eat at
the galley
you know so you don't have to pay for
food you don't pay for housing you don't
I don't pay like a light bill water bill
none of that stuff so really my only
bills is really like my phone like
Netflix and I'm overseas so I don't have
a car so I don't have to pay no car
insurance and none except stuff my bills
are pretty limited but I'm bringing in
income so it's easier to save money
and invest money and they'll do stuff
like that so I would say the money is a
is a big perk because you really have to
spend any money if you really don't want
to I don't have to have a phone I don't
have to do any that tell yourself
getting into the cons all right it's
just your private way you know y'all
probably wait on the corners right I'm
just gonna be honest I would say freedom
of expression I feel sometimes that the
Navy you can't like really express
yourself like at the end of the day you
kind of know what you starting up for
life span couple times Robin I actually
been kind of mad about certain stuff I
couldn't do but somebody to like let me
know like you know you joined the
military right I was like hey I guess
you write loved it like for example like
my hair like I've been I got in trouble
a couple times by my hair they say they
were saying his out of rays cuz they
used to be a little longer than this but
they were trying to say it was out of
race or not the length they were saying
it was out of race by the texture of my
hair like they would say I need to pick
my hair out so I did and I would I
didn't really like that I kind of felt
like it was like I don't know I only
wanna get all that by really I really
didn't like how they how they told me I
need to pick my hair out and stuff like
that creamy expression you know you just
can't do whatever you want
why are you in the military if you must
say you a dude and how you express
yourself is lime-green fingernails or
something you can't do that period I'm
just giving an example another con is is
it con for me it's taking on you one but
the going on deployment the owner
deployment can be a pro or it can be a
con
the pro is like the port's that you hit
like traveling but the con is being
ottoman on the ship for a long period of
time you know it's kind of boring
Restless you anxious to get off the ship
you can't really talk to your family
that much missing regular food that's
not cooked in the galley and just being
able to just go like just get away from
the Navy sometimes it's hard to separate
your job and your actual life like the
Navy isn't me
like the Navy isn't like I don't like
eat sleep breathe a navy you know I'm
saying so some people do I don't so I
just feel like you gotta have a way of
separating it at times and sometimes
it's hard to do that especially me you
underway number three uh it's if a
higher-ranking tells you to do something
and there's within his regards like it's
not like an unlawful order you got to do
it or you you have to listen that may
not be
like a problem to you but I know I have
problems like listening sometimes when I
just feel like I shouldn't have to do it
or I feel like I don't know you know
just different things hard-headed
sometimes it's like you can't you can't
like just be like you know what it's not
like a regular job but you can't be like
you know what I'm sick of this I quit
there's no such thing you can't just
quit the Navy you can't quit the
military you can get kicked out which
would go on your record and you know
that you don't want to do all of that so
know what you get yourself into when you
sign that contract you won't do them
years unless you decide kicked out or
something like that but you won't do
them years you don't have it you don't
have a choice in most things
number four is repetitive for the most
part I get up every day I wake up at
about five o'clock in the morning when I
when I go to work I get up at five
o'clock in the morning and I'm out the
door by by like 6:30 to get to work I'd
be there by 7:00 I pretty much do the
exact same thing every single day right
now by me being undesignated I do like
different different things but it's the
same thing you know specially so people
have race they do almost the same exact
thing almost every day it may be any
piece of equipment or a new person or a
new like you know some things may tweak
a little bit but for the most part it's
the same type of thing you you go to
work and you ought to eat go back to
work you get off the work
it's just repenting this predator
profession over and over no offense were
you underway and you it's no such thing
as the weekend underway if y'all didn't
know there's no such thing as I all guys
Saturday off Sunday you got a routine
you might get to come into work a little
later or they might be lenient with you
on a Sunday
well it's no such it's no weekend so
it's literally you work Monday to Monday
and you're in uniform so if you're have
a problem with the repetitiveness this
the military it may not be for you
number five is listening to if you have
like a poor chain of command or like
just leadership period and you know and
they're over ranking you so you so
you're supposed to listen to him I saw
this one post on the military and it was
saying like they give you a bowl of soup
right it's just a figure just a ferrous
piece right and you have a spoon in your
hand and you know you can eat this soup
with the spoon right and you go in to
start eating with the spoon
and then your chain command is like no
don't use that spoon use this and they
give you a fork and you're like but I
got a spoon I know this comes boom oh
we're way better than his fork and
they're like I don't care what you say
this Fork is better right
so use the fork that's the order use the
fork so now you're over there using the
fork and then somebody hired and then
comes out say no don't use the fork here
use this use the knife and you just like
but I got a spoon but they're like no
use tonight so it's just like if you can
if you catch that it's stuff like that
where you know you may be right
or you know that something is better
than this but because they are high
ranking than you and they may be poor
leadership and you know they don't value
what you say or rather your opinion you
are now forced to eat your soup with a
knife as long as you catch that figure
of speech then you understand what I'm
talking about
and you just sitting there it gets to
you at a point first time you may be
like well just crazy and that's thing
you know you'll notice that you just
following orders without even thinking
about it they might be like hey uh go
out there and and mop up the ring hey
yeah we're gonna mop the rain today you
know stuff like that so now this is by
no means like the epitome pros and cons
I don't want to make my videos like
anybody others anybody else's videos I
appreciate y'all watching this video
