If 40k was real?

[Boomer]

If today, right now a space ship came down and revealed that earth is infact not the real earth
and the real date is the year 40,000 something and everyone on our world had to join the imperium and chose a job what would do?

Me, well first knowing what I know about the Imperium I would not be to happy to worship a corpse on a shiny chair. So I would most likely join a rebel faction and become a freedom fighter.
Well that’s till the space marines turn up were I would throw my rifle on the floor and suddenly remember how to be a loyal servant of the Imperium then I would most likely get a desk job in one of the terra based offices.
Living out the rest of my life in comfort and as far from any battlefield full of crazed alien warriors as I can be!

I would tag along with the Space Marines since the beginning...

And traitors who drop their weapons and promise allegiance to the Emperor of Mankind is just a corpse and doesn't know it yet... only without a weapon!

[Aubec]

I would join the Adeptus Munitorium and force poor IG grunts to have their forms filled out in triplicate and notarized. Oh yeah, and have the commisars shoot them if they complain.

[Toxic]

Ether Marines (Black Templar) or the one above.

[Quick]

Knowing what I know about the Imperium, the first thing I would do is join the Inquisition. Being above the law can be really comfortable.

[Shiz_Vaerth]

Join the Ordo Xenos, seek to learn more about the Eldar and try to move to a craftworld (not likely). Failing that I'd claim that THEY are all heretics and try to maintain worship to god on earth. I'd probably end up as an arco-flagellant though.

Unfortunately you cant just decide to be a space marine. You would have to be a perfect example of the human specimen with a an extreme talent for butt kickin'. And even then you would have a hard time catching the attention of the... talent scouts.

As for a job... a political position I think.

If I couldn't I would just go and knock their door and enlist myself... ;Y

I agree with whoever said they would get a desk job on terra. I would do the same and stay as far away as possible from any sort of IG, Inquisitorial, or navy sort of position as I humanly could. I would sit at my desk saying "praise the Emperor" all day long to stay safe.

The world of 40k really sucks actually and thats the only way I think I could possible be safe at all from all the countless enemies of mankind, not to mention the enemies within.

[Kamenwati]

Most likely I'd end up as a Adeptus Mechanicus Acolyte, most likely an Engiseer (Sp?). I know binary so they would probably induce me to protect their "secret" language.

Maybe from there become a toady, I mean henchman, I mean retinue of a Inquisitor.
