Jbs2763 Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Posted January 8, 2010 Update.... got an email today to send them copies of my CDL and passport....looking promising Quote
ferretrunner Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 jbs, Good luck. Personally, civilian contracting annoys me. THey pay contractors 2-3 times what they pay the military to do the same job. But... I hope it works for you for the employment. Quote
eternalpromise516 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 jibbers, you know how i feel, rather strongly. i just want you to be happy, and if you'll be happy by getting this job in Iraq, then i'll be "happy" since you are. Quote

I hope it works for you for the employment. i'd rather be over there carring an M60...but when you dislocate your knee in basic training...they ship your butt home Quote
oworker1 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 I was offered it but just couldnt do it also. Was in military 20 years ,no more away from family from me, Quote
beefche Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 i'd rather be over there carring an M60...but when you dislocate your knee in basic training...they ship your butt homeThey ship your butt home, but not your knee? Quote
Jbs2763 Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Posted January 9, 2010 got another email today... " I received your information and will give you a phone call to start your process." good right? Quote
ferretrunner Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 i'd rather be over there carring an M60...but when you dislocate your knee in basic training...they ship your butt homeI'm sorry about the knee. I really hope it didn't sound like I was slamming you. I wasn't trying. It can just be frustrating sometimes. I hope things work out for you, employment wise. Wherever that takes you. :) Quote
