You enlisted on your own, you could show some semblance of being a MAN and serve the time that you enlisted for, you just might find out that you really do like it.
Your CO will look at your performance and it will be evaluated but if he thinks that you are faking it you will be stuck unless you can prove a hardship.

I'm with Jay 100% on this one. I can look into my crystal ball (we get issued one when we go though CPO initiation) :).
Continue on this way and the first thing happening is the workcenter supervisior councelling you formally a couple times. When that fails to properly motivate you he will send you to the LPO who will do the same, maybe assign some more EMI and try to talk some sence in to you. When that fails to motivate you the Chief gets the next turn. Some more councelling and EMI and still unmotivated ?
Maybe the DIVO and Deparment head want to talk with you, maybe not. Still unmotivated ?
Now the Chief breaks out the stick. Now your going to see the Captain at mast and he isn't handing out candycanes.
A few rounds of restriction, exra duty and pay forfeitures might just help you see the light.
If you still continue I can assure you that every single CO I served with uses his last option. He will send you to the brig for 60 days and then you'll get your admin discharge. Complete with forfeiture of all benefits and a "RE-4" code on your DD- 214. (Unsuitable for military service) and never upgraded, that's a myth. Might not mean much to you now, but apply for any cival service or govt. job or student loan etc. and it will come back to haunt you.
This is probably the first time in your life when you have been held accountable for your actions. Couple that with responsibilities and your overwhelmed ? Life will chew you up and spit you out. Believe it or not being in the civillian workforce is no piece of cake either.
This "process" takes months and it's not easy.
Men learn to handle their responsibilities and are held accountable for their actions. Boys run away ! Which one will you be ?

We've talked about this before remember-
"You can get out- It will be bad for you though but if you're going to wuss out and quit go ahead. There is no good discharge that you can get.
Just refuse to carry out any and all orders. Nobody is going to beat you, they might yell, but that's about it. You'll be out in no time.
If you're looking for something easy and nice, there's no such thing as, " I'm not playing no more" and going home to watch cartoons. This is for real sailor- and so are the consequences"
I take it nobody is giving you the answer that you "like" both in and out of the Navy.
You keep whining like this probably all you'll get is extra duty. I'd heap it on you like compost until you either got with the program or out of my Navy.

A huge waste of your time, huh? Didn't you think about that before signing on?
Go have a chat with your CO. But I don't think "waste of your time" is much of a sympathetic case.
Good luck.

you can't just walk up to your LPO and say: I want out. You have signed a contract and you are obligated to fulfill your end of the bargain.
This ain't Mickey D's, you can just quit because you don't like something.

You should have thought about that before you signed your life away(I'm not being sarcastic, but you literally signed your body over.)
