Ok I am absolutely torn between 3 careers:

A British Army regular:

Id really like to be a grunt in the British army. id really like to go and fight in Afghanistan. the army life does appeal to me, and the closeness of a unit. I'm a member of the Irish reserve defence forces.

The London Metropolitan Police:

I am actually looking at the police now, cos they get so many perks, too many to go into. but in a few years i could be in a very wealthy situation. Its like the army without all the bullshit marching and parades. Plus 10 times better pay. Can you join the TA when you're in the police?

Graphic Design

I really like art and for quite some time I was hoping to got to college and study graphic design, and i liked the work opportunities and the contract work and the option of going overseas.


I am really leaning towards the police, i just hope i can join the TA and possibly still go o Afghanistan then...and maybe be able to do a graphic design degree part time or something... but yeah all the perks and large salary with the police is really tempting.

Easy choices.

Do you want a desk job? If yes, then Graphic Design.
Do you want to really be a grunt? If no, then the police.

If you want to incorporate all three...
You can enlist in the military for a few years, then join the police, and keep graphic design as a casual side job or hobby.
