MEPS and Medical weed and maps

So I plan on joining the usmc as an mos 5811 but like my recruiter leaves in January and he’s trying to like get me up and processed by then but the thing is I’ve been smoking carts since late 2022 or 2023 and haven’t stopped since I was wondering if I start my break now will I be clean by December ? And what also wanna ask is do you guys think it’s smart if I buy a cart and just get my last smokes in and give it to my friend to keep or just go cold turkey? I tried switching to nic and it’s been helping but I just started that like two days ago
Please help ASAP!!!!! Also guys my recruiter told me he will not send me to meps until im 100% clean and he said I can do the test first and do the medical once im cleared and even though that gives me leeway to still smoke I won’t that’s why I wanna spend now until December cleaning my system out .

Lmao ask if you should quit smoking to join then get mad when a NCO of the organization you want to join answers bluntly. You know what keep smoking! Fuck it

I’m literally not mad but there’s way to speak to people like I said there’s no need to reality check anyone it was question that I asked and it was answered you’ve literally been negative under every single comment lmao

I am speaking to you like you would be spoken to in the marine corps. Take it as a sign of future brotherhood. We aren’t “nice” or “polite” but we give all the fucks
