So you'll be 27-28 when you get out, you'll likely have some money in your account and hopefully some skill you can then apply in the civilization workforce and it will get you out of your parents house. Not too bad of a deal.The downsides: it won't be easy, at least at first. Your life as you know it will be over. You might get sent to some shithole of a country during some dickshit of a war. You're stuck for four years no matter what, there's no resets or saying "I don't like it"
hopefully i can get a job in the army which isn't too war involved, like an engineer i guess that'd be useful post army.
there should be some trial period where i experience army life for a certain period then if i don't like that then i'll know

Would be military jail, so the chances of getting anally raped are significantly lower, if that is a concern. The dishonorable discharge would be a blemish on your record though.
Lot's of jobs you learn can then use outside the military. Some by their very nature would kept you out of warzones.
Ha, they know better. The dropout rate would be extremely high.http://www.army.mod.uk/join/Careers-in-the-Army.aspx Like to cook? Be a chef. Good with mechanical stuff, be a "general fitter", sounds fitting.
Reserves too, that's like the army for slackers. IMO, go SAS or go home.

if they ask why i want to join the army i'm not totally sure what to say
"Cos I don't know what to do with my life", isn't that enough?
But I'm looking at it from a US Army pov, where the recruiters will take anyone to fill their quota. Maybe the UK has higher standards and a shit answer like that will be you dropped.
If they don't take you, there's always the French Foreign Legion. You need to learn French first, or you're ****ed, and not in a good way
