00:00:00.000I think probably like there's such a high youth unemployment rate in the country right now and the Canadian Armed Forces to say, hey, we're spending billions and we want you.
00:00:07.820But what advice would you give to some 18, 19 year old, 20 year old young woman or man out there is thinking about joining the military?
00:00:15.560Think carefully about what your expectations of the actual job will be type of thing.
00:00:20.620Like if you sign up for the infantry and you know what I mean, you are not someone who likes going on long hikes or, or, or camping with guns or hunting and that type of thing.
00:00:34.060So like have expected and then work with what you're sort of, there's like, you can be an HVAC in the military, I'm pretty sure, or carpentry.
00:00:42.220So like figure out, you know what I mean, what is realistic within your skill sets or aptitudes.
00:00:47.960and then write down i think they make you list your top three choices and you don't always get
00:00:52.420your first one so make sure that they're sort of so it could be admin or hr and then and there's
00:00:56.660and like the support trades are absolutely essential to making sure that everybody in
00:01:00.700the rest of the military because i think support is like at least half if not more of the people
00:01:05.060involved so like nothing happens without them so take pride in those roles as well like you're
00:01:09.980you're not you're in the background so you're not the tip of the spear so what like it maybe
00:01:14.120you realize after five, 10 years of being a log
00:01:17.160that you want to be an armored officer or whatever.
