If so: How long is it? Do you suffer in it? Do they treat you like a dog, make you do all the shit tasks mop floors etc. and do they deprive you from any of your civil rights while in service?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, your country is not free.
I'll start. 3 years of mandatory service, in which officers and higher ups treat the soldiers like trash. I've personally expiricned many digusting situations where higher ups throw trash on the floor and make people clean it and stuff like that. Dare to say anything other than "Yes commander" and they will humiliate you and lock you up

I wish >no school for a year >don't have to go to war because we're not at war >no responsibilities other than cleaning up and stuff like that >get to shoot guns and ride tanks >basically summercamp that lasts a whole year I wanna go on conscription

6-12 months. it's not as bad as people think idk why are they constantly crying about.

draft in couple of months, where to avoid?
Carson Taylor
Yes for all of the questions
Benjamin Thomas

Caleb Brooks
>How long is it? yes
Ian Cook
avoiding conscription is your best choice it's also the easiest to leave then, once you are in it will be nearly impossible without issues
but you probably won't listen to me, everyone around you tells you it's the most important thing in your life
Carter Thomas
expected from flag tho
please elaborate on your service. what is it like? what are you forced to do daily? do your officers spit on your face when you wake up? are you allowed to complain about it when they do
Jace James
Sorry, it's one year and 3 mounths, 12 weeks of training and the rest working inside, if you are lucky they send you to gun deposity or radio commander, but most of the soldiers fuck thenselves during the role service
Hunter Hall
that was super useful, I ask where to avoid and you answer don't join. it is too late for that, I don't want to go to jail or never be able to enter the country, and I especially won't do that because one anonymous person on the internet said it sucks, I want to know where in the army I should avoid. what positions/jobs/units?
Matthew Allen
6am wake up every day, we had to go for morning jogging 3 minutes after waking up. very busy schedule most of the time and when camping in woods, we had pretty much fire under our arse 24/7. officers won't spit on your face or force you to do push ups (anymore). we are not allowed to complain about anything and if someone with higher rank orders you to do something, then you have to do it without complaining. every day we had to clean the barracks from floor to ceiling pretty much. nothing special really
Joseph Rodriguez
אוקי, שלא תגיד שאף אחד לא אמר לך למה אתה נכנס
אם אתה לא מגיע לקורס או לתפקיד מיוחד כל המקומות שאתה יכול להגיע אליהם יהיו דומים מאוד ככה שזה לא משנה איפה. תבחר מה שקרוב לבית, תבקש יומיות. אם נראה לך שזה חוויה צבאית לסגור והכול יהיה לך מספיק מזה בתורנויות, לפחות שבסדיר תצא הביתה.
הציעו לך מסלולים כלשהם? אה עוד משהו, תברח מעתודה בכל מחיר
Charles Bennett
sounds like they just want you to be reserve material if your country ever goes to war, and from what you write they give you a hard time but treat you like humans. this sounds acceptable, do young finns also think that
Ryder Hernandez
Fuck off cuck invader nation for making me spend 9 months of my life in boredom
Jayden Bennett
well i rarely heard conscripts complaining about the treatment they get from others, so i guess they're fine with it. i just did what they told me to do and that's it.
Kevin Martin
שאלו עתודאי כל מה שבאלכם אחוקים שלי
Jace Ward
?אז לא היית קרבי
לא קיבלתי הצעות
Tyler Hill
Yes but usually only those willing get in the army.
The army barely gets enough money to keep itself around, they can't really afford training the huge amount of people that turn 18 every year. But every able male in Brazil is in the reserve, so in case of war we're called.
Hunter Adams
>just did what they told me to do and that's it. let me guess pants off soldier, lay on the bed face down. Spread your legs then your asscheeks as wide as they can get with your fingers
shit I just gave myself a boner
Can you imagine doing this to a handsome blonde Finnish soldier or a top qt twink?
Gavin Murphy
לא קרבי. אבל אני אומר לך שאתה לא רוצה להיות קרבי. זה לא הפנטזיה שאתה מדמיין אתה פשוט תהיה כלב שמירות וניקיונות. בהצלחה אתה ילד גדול תחליט מה שבא לך.
איפה נתקעת
Joseph Hall
6-12 months. It can be as hard as fuck or it can be easy sailing. You basically choose when picking the branch. You are not treated like a dog but you can be pushed to your limit. It used to be worse but now it's more comradery thing more than just pissing on you if you fuck up. Everyone I know of has at least some fond memories of their service no matter how harsh it was. It's kind of a thing that bonds most finnish men. Those two week, two hours a night sleep combat camps are a joy now, no matter how much they sucked then
Ethan Robinson

Matthew Taylor
That's pretty mediocre compared to pics of Russian conscripts circulating here.
Ryan Gomez
WTF I love Finland now
That looks like so much fun. Look at that guy in the bag, grinning like the fucking Chesire cat. How much weed do you usually smuggle in these places so that people let others stick glowsticks up their arse jesus fucking christ

Jeremiah Roberts
And they wonder why everyone hates them.
Isaiah Moore
wow I can smell the shoe polish
No offense but seeing that vid makes me think this whole conscription thing is even more of a waste of time than I previously assumed.
Logan Hall
>conscript thread >would you like to Translate this page - Hebrew?

Nathaniel Thomas
it's better than shitposting on Sup Forums for 12 months or just being a NEET. but honestly, the only reason we still have conscription is russia
Landon Carter

William Anderson
It's an ad. Of course it's going to be like that. On the other hand you don't live next to Russia anymore. Every man here is taught how to fight but we have a professional army in addition.
Luis Phillips
There's always excess personnel so if you're already through to uni they let you off the hook.

Daniel Johnson
our military service used to be nicknamed "colimba" by the general population COrre (run), LIMpia (clean), BArre (use the broom) It got abolished after the last military coup attempt, but a few people still insist that a military service, or at least civilian service for the various public institutions would be okay
Easton Rogers

>Russkies Again, no offense, but that sounds kinda like government propaganda. Russians would never dare attack Finland for so many reasons.You are part of the EU, there'd be retaliation, both financially or even military wise. Just look at Ukraine, ever since the Russians attacked, a few well placed sanctions bled their entire economy dry.
Michael Jenkins
Natural born killers
Whoa Brazilian sounds crazy.. cool vid too btw
Sebastian Howard
>Just look at Ukraine ye That's where I just looked.
Ukraine is a third world shithole that isn't part of any international agreements that matter.
Finland is a first world wonder that continues to amaze the international community with its high GDP, life expecancy, education system- also it is part of the EU, and many other agreements.
Can you see the difference now?
James Rogers
Shit is still not that simple. I don't expect Russia to invade us. Even if they wanted to this is how we deter them. Make it as hard as we can. We have plans to blow up every bridge we have. We have nothing but forests. You can't drive tank through those. It is a deterrent. Not a threat of offence. And we know where the offence would come from.

אני יכול בכלל לעשות משהו בשלב הזה או שאכלתי אותה?
Adam Green
Go ask your mom or dad or granny if it was better under soviet rule. Go ask those people that were deported from Hungary.
Austin Carter
>Shit is still not that simple. True. Russia used the internal strife and fighting within Ukraine. Ukrainians fucked up because they themselves had created the opportunity for Russians to invade. If they had stood united, this never would've had happened. That said, this is to be expected when a good portion of your country is made up of Russkies, and you speak an almost identical language to them. Finland is ethnically Finn and you are Finno Ugrics, your country stands united, the two situations cannot be compared. I would, but they are quite nostalgic about the commie rule. In case you didn't know, we had what they called Goulash-communism. After 1956, the Russkies realized they couldn't control Hungary with force, so they loosened the leash so to speak. We had it far better than other Eastern European countries. A lot of older people speak of the time before 1988 with a certain...fondness. It's pretty gross.
Kayden Davis
Russians are bro tier, i just dont trust russian government. You'll never know if they'll collapse into communist totalitarian state again.
Christopher Rodriguez
we have it, but you can pay your way out of it.
they use you for traffic police usually, sometimes you go to Farc areas.
I wasn't taken because I was too young when graduated from highschool (16 years old).
Tyler Wilson
>In case you didn't know I do and it's sad. Get rid of those communist asshole in the power and/or teachers. You were the start of a revolution but you can't keep it. Slovenia, Slovakia and Estonia have gone past you.

יומיות, לפעמים סוגר לחודש . דווקא נהנה זה דופק טוב באזרחות . מתיחסים עלי כמו חייל רגיל ,ראוי. האמתי לא אכפת לי מהזכויות, כל עוד שאני בעתיד אתקבל למקום סוס , לא תיהיה לי בעיה כלשהי. גאמאיסט כאן, איך נפלת? איפה ?

oh shit ילד, בוא תדריך אותי לגאמא אני צריך עזרה

I was in army. I like smell of AK's gunpowder very much.

Cooper Ramirez
Israelis, why do you guys do so much copyright infringement:
דיברתי שטויות בראיונות בשלב האחרון(מעדיף לא להתעסק ברשתות, כותב בעיקר סקריפטים, "חושב שיש לי פוטנציאל אבל לא בהכרח ידע" וכו') אני חושב שבתכל'ס אני מתאים לגאמ"א, והידע שלי הוא גם יחסית טוב, אבל לא התייחסתי למיונים ולראיונות מספיק ברצינות, ועכשיו אני מוצא את עצמי די בלי אופציות. יש לך רעיונות לגבי מה שאני יכול לעשות?
Brody Hill
Go to school? Dude, you guys rely on the military way too much.
Isaac Edwards
It's literally obligatory here, I cannot do that by law.
Aaron Myers
I understand. I'm just saying suck it up and when you get out, go and get some edumacation.
If you want, I'll hire you to work at my new business in Tel Aviv when I make aliya next year.
Andrew Barnes
היית באיזה תוכנית לתכנות או ידע אישי או תואר מסוים? תקשיב בגאמא יש דרישה חזקה בידע נרחב בתכנות, על דגש C++, networks וsecurity ואתה זלזלת במערכת , חבל מאוד שלא השקעת לפי איך שתיארת את המצב לא נראלי ,תנסה להוציא 21 ותעוף מהצבא, להיות רציני אין לי שום מוטיבציה להיות בצה"ל אבל הם נותנים משהו טוב לאזרחות
Christopher Peterson
I was thinking about doing just that, but I don't know. Sucks to know that 3 years of my life where I could've worked on my confidence, gone to school, started working in meaningful jobs, etc. are going to be somewhat wasted, as I basically missed my chance at making them meaningful. - I don't know if you're being serious or not, but you sound like an interesting person either way. Email me @ [email protected].
Jacob Bailey
Do you have any experience in statistics and probability? My business is basically business and medical analytics. We're big data here and we plan on doing some mad regressions.
I don't mind training you if you can prove proficient in linear algebra, calculus, or at least show some progressive and forward thinking when it comes to data metrics. If you can show you can identify trends, then you're in. It'll probably pay 60k shkalim starting, but we'll have to see what my clients are. Right now I have a few businesses contracted, but the I'm still looking around Tel Aviv for some good business locations.
לא תכנית, אבל יש לי יכולת למידה עצמאית ואני מתעסק בדברים האלה מגיל צעיר. לא יודע אם C++, אבל כתבתי כל מיני פרוייקטים קטנים ב-C# / PHP / Python / Ruby בעבר, וכן יש לי ידע ברשתות, בעיקר בכל מיני פרוטוקולים שקשורים בווב כמו FTP, HTTP, XMPP וכו'.
בקשר לעניין הזלזול במערכת: כן, אתה צודק, והבעיה היא שהבנתי את זה מאוחר מדי. הייתי בן אדם מאוד זחוח עד לפני כמה חודשים, כשירד לי האסימון סוף סוף. אני עובד על שיפור עצמי מאז ולומד המון בכוחות עצמי, אבל מרגיש פספוס בכל מה שקשור לצבא. הקטע שגם לי אין מוטיבציה כל כך בגלל שאני לא יכולתי להתמיין ליחידות המובחרות. לשחקים וחבצלות לא יכולתי להתמיין בגלל דפ"ר נמוך (70), ואת המיונים הכלליים של מודיעין הסתירו ממני מאיזושהי סיבה, למרות שלפי מה שהבנתי ככל הנראה היו לי סיכויים גבוהים להתקבל למודיעין שפות/מזרחנות.
ואיך אני בכלל מוציא 21?
James Wood
Tel Aviv is my home. It's Miami without the Mexicans and the Jews there are much more tolerable.
I cannot handle Jews in the US any longer. NYC Jews are the most obnoxious, spoiled, and generally socially retarded group of coreligionists I've ever had the displeasure of associating myself with.
Isaac Clark
>How long is it? 18 months in total, but the first time service is only 12 months and after that you still owe the military 6 months of service if they demand it from you >Do you suffer in it? Yes, it's not a rewarding job at all. Do they treat you like a dog, make you do all the shit tasks mop floors etc. oh god yes, you will feel like a mix of cleaning lady + inmate + punk doing community service >do they deprive you from any of your civil rights while in service? in most civilian jobs there would be various lawsuits if they had to put up with the shit a conscript goes through
Andrew Sullivan
No experience beyond what's being learnt in school, but I'm prepared to learn. I'll have to look into it, though. Send me a message on my mail so that we can keep in touch.
Gavin Hernandez
זה נחמד לשמוע שאתה למדת מגיל צעיר , עצוב לשמוע בן 18 שהוא זחוח וחסר מוטיבציה , אל תקח את זה באופן השלילי, המדינה הזאת לא משהו גם ככה. יש לך חיים בעתיד , לא הצבא ולא הבית ספר ידריכו אותך יותר , תתפוס את עצמך מהר מאוד, יהיה קשה.... אה שכחתי משהו ,תעשה עתודה זה סביר מאוד ואז תעוף מהצבא. לגבי 21 חבר שלי שילם לאיזה עורך דין 8000₪ ושחרר אותו על נפשי , הגבר היום עושה תואר בזמן שאחרים אוכלים חרא, זה יקר אבל שמע זה מעולה אם אתה עתודאי אתה תוכל להשלים את המחיר הזה מהר מאוד
Cooper Taylor
Aight, I'll send you an email describing the job a bit and then you can send the resume as well. I'm drinking right now, so you'll probably see me hit you up when I sober up.
David Cooper
I ask because I'm thinking about it myself. Of course I'd go on birthright and see if I like it, but it may be worth doing later in order to avoid the IDF (however, I have heard that being in the IDF is the best way to assimilate into Israeli culture).
Michael Lewis
I went on birthright. It was beautiful. I fucked one of the IDF girls on the trip. Haha, it was right after Shabbat too. I basically kicked my roommates out of the room and we did our thing.
When we were done, we heard a knock and I rushed her into the bathroom. I went outside and saw my roommate and some other girl (who I had made friends with on the trip) just waiting outside.
All I did was say, "WTF, go hide in the staircase well or something. Let the girl leave with some dignity." I had to explain that to these NYC Jews, that you shouldn't just fucking sit outside the room when I'm FUCKING AN ISRAELI GIRL.
>to avoid IDF You don't have to join IDF when you go on birthright, lol. Only when you do aliya. Do birthright dude, do it asap. Have some fun. Fuck the IDF girls that come on your trip, and just enjoy yourself.
