So I'm gonna answer a couple of questions that I Typically wouldn't make a video about necessarily because they might be really like easy to Answer in a video, you know what I mean? but yeah, and if you have any questions in the future Comment below. I mean ask me on my Instagram. I guess well actually Don't ask me too much on my Instagram. I get it no way to easily with that But YouTube that's fine in the comments ask questions ask away On this video Ask all the questions you want. I'll try to answer them eventually. Okay, we're losing daylight. So Let's start off with Kareem Hanna asks Is it gay that I like your voice? No kill joy 117 007 because obviously there was a kill joy 117 006 and every number proceeding He says I'm 17 and my parents want me to go to college and they said that they would rather have me go to college first and then become a Marine officer is that a good option in your opinion? I'm gonna say if you're gonna go to college and then join the Marine Corps Absolutely become an officer now the reason I say that is because you get paid more money You get put into a leadership position and all around it's a better lifestyle Now don't get me wrong. I do know a lot of Marines at Winter College Got a bachelor's degree and then join the Marine Corps the only problem with that is you make a lot less money. I mean Most of those people already have student debt and student loans and all this other stuff You're not really gonna be able to pay those back While you're in the Marine Corps after college if you go and listed now if you go the officer route Nine times out of ten you're probably hooked up with a program where they're gonna pay your your tuition for you They have ROTC like Miranda. That's what that's what she does She's gonna be an army officer so they pay for their bit for like schooling books all that stuff This is a cool username jarhead Jarhead says what can I do to get past the mental barrier of my three mile run? My runtime is 22 minutes, but my mile to halftime is only 920 So should I be doing a lot better when I run a three mile? I hit a barrier and I have slow I have to slow down drastically I'm fine on pull-ups and crunches though any advice When it comes to running all I can say is practice practice practice Don't focus on your mile time. It does not matter. Okay? What matters is your PFT your physical fitness test? That's gonna be a three mile run If you can get out every day or every other day and run a mile or two three You're already ahead of the game and he said that his runtime is 22 minutes I know 22 minutes might not be where you want to be But it's passing so if you go to boot camp right now for the 22 minute three mile You'll be just fine And I'm sure that would drop is so just all I can say is keep practicing if you're like running if you don't like running I don't care just practice and you'll get there John Smith is it just me or does he sound like Josh pack? You know I get that all the time I Guess I kind of hear it a little bit He'll guy What happens if you fail an inspection and I think he's referring to a room inspection If you fail a room inspection Typically what happens is a Corporal or a sergeant Sorry about that the bus if you fail a room inspection Typically what happens is a corporal or a sergeant is going to come in the next morning and Make sure that you begin and if you fail that time then you're in some pretty big trouble And also you're probably a slob to fail an inspection. It's not that hard. Just be clean You know pick up after yourself. Don't leave Moody food laying under your bed like I swear to God. I've seen that like Moody food under his rack three or four weeks just bugs I don't know. I don't know how that happens. Okay Kyle H You say we were told that if we got a tattoo within PT here range Let's say on the ribs of chest that you didn't even have to report that and that would be good mostly no But he's still yes here we go and say you have like eight tattoos all over your chest That will actually keep you from being either Being able to switch to the to the officer side or being able to read and list in some cases And if you're dumb enough to go out right now and get a tattoo on your arm or on your neck or below the leg Chances are they're not gonna let you read list. I know the army changed their tattoo policy, but I know the army changed their tattoo policy, but that does not mean that the Marine Corps has to adhere to the same standards that the army does I know you're thinking it's so dumb. Why do they even care about tattoos? I agree I have tattoos but Rules are rules and they're in place right now, so don't go banking on All the tattoo policy is gonna change. I should go get this tattoo Don't count on it and my opinion I Think it will change in the future, but not anytime soon But I'll keep you updated if it does Rose Dowling said what M.O. West should I pick? I'm thinking military police, but not sure yet, and I don't want to be signed up for something I don't like and The recruiters always ask what do you want to do and I don't even know And Marines tell me not to do open contract. It'll screw you up and look at something like your cup Well Rose, I'll tell you what I tell everybody and you even said it right here Find something that you love to do and pick that job I love to make videos. I love the edit videos. I love the shoot videos. I like to shoot photos. I love to talk. I love to talk on camera So pick a job that you like to do. Okay, there's a million jobs in the Marine Corps You can be a weatherman you can be a refrigeration repair you can be a mechanic you can be So many jobs you can be a pilot like Why limit yourself a lot of people think that there's only brunch and why me by that is there's only infantry That is not the case There are so many jobs and if all goes well and you have a good career It's good four years you can get out of the Marine Corps and then go straight into another job That's just like the one you had so hypothetically Let's say you like cars So you become a mechanic in the Marine Corps as soon as you get out of the Marine Corps Instead of going to college or a trade school you could probably just walk up to any garage and get a nice paying job So I know you said you don't know what you want to do And I said that too when I was in high school But it was sitting right in front of me the whole time Video but in my head I didn't think there was any kind of job in the Marine Corps that I could do where I could do video And that's just not true I mean for example, I have a friend that there's a really really really talented artist She is now one of the best artists in the Marine Corps. That's right her entire job is to just be an artist Crazy crazy All right guys, I think that wraps it up for me that was a little bit longer than I expected it to be I think in the future I'll probably answer only maybe two or three questions but Yeah, please, please share these videos. I'm telling you it helps The more people you have asking questions the more information that you'll learn It just helps everybody out and it's getting to the point where um Somebody will ask a question in the comments and then somebody else will answer them and it's just like I don't even have to be the one answering it's awesome like you guys are great So just share these videos on Facebook or whatever give me a shout out on Instagram tag me My Instagram name is Clayton Philpo so Yeah, all right See you guys tomorrow
