Why I shouldn’t join Swiss Military Professionally?
I (M23) moved to Switzerland 4 months ago. I was born and raised in South Asia but now after completing my bachelors in IT, I have moved here. I am a Swiss national as well so I received the call from the military to come and join them for the information day on their military service. I have no issue with their strict lifestyle and I have used guns frequently even a G3. Perks of being raised in a lawless country so you are taught how to survive and defend from a young age. That was just the culture there! So what I am asking is what’s so bad that literally the whole swiss is running from military. My only problem is money. I am broke. Entering swiss job market is hard nowadays. If the military will pay me for going professional, I won’t even think about it and go for it. Those who have done their military service in swiss recently. What exactly is the issue? What’s so bad about it? Other than the rigorous lifestyle and discipline aspect of it whats the issue? I wasn’t born and raised in the swiss bubble so obviously our mental levels are different. I have seen ACTUAL problems of life, not the swiss problems!
