I recently was working at McDonald's and a army recruiter asked me if I have ever thought about joining. I said yes, than he asked what I wanted to do with my life. I said I wanted to be a pharmacist. Than he proceeded to tell me he that if I sign my life away I can get free college. I made the mistake of giving them my number. Now they want to meet at my work. Do I just say I'm not interested in signing my life away at such a young ?

Just say, in the spur of the moment I was interested but after having conversations with family members and reflecting not the situation I have decided just to go to college and pursue a career as a pharmacist without the help of the army, and then thank them for getting in contact and giving you this kind of offer!

Don't say you don't feel like signing your life away at such a young age, just tell him you're not interested in joining the military.
That's their job, is to recruit people, he thought you were interested so now he's wanting to talk to you about it. I'll admit it, that when I was joining at first the recruiters were a bit annoying, they would message me on Facebook and I was like "how the hell did you find me" but a lot of the recruiters are pretty chill guys and they'll understand if you don't feel like enlisting.
They're just following orders man.

Just say you are no longer interested. Easy as that. You don't OWE the military ANYTHING. I currently work in a Army recruiting Office here in Tucson, AZ before I ship off and from experience it's best if you just tell us you're not interested than to just ignore our calls or text. Don't feel bad at all. It's your life.

Just inform them that you had a change of mind.

I suppose it depends on who you are / how they are pestering you.
For example, if it were me and they were asking you to join like a jehovah witness, I'd tell them to F off, kick dust, go F yourself, etc. If it's just general asking and they're not being A-holes, be respectful. I'd just say that I feel I have the materials to look into this career path, I appreciate your help but I think I've got it from here and if I have any further questions I'll give you a call.

First off, you don't tell them to "F Off".
You politely tell them that you are not interested anymore, just as any normal and decent human being would.
