    It's not bad.

    You'll always be able to get a job, and if you get one for DoD you're in gravy.

    A good operator on a back-hoe or excavator can make good money.

    I'm working @ Lackland right now. When I'm on the Back-hoe it's $18/hr, the dangle digger is $20/hr and when I'm doing electricians work it's $24.- for a contractor.

    Do ATC, what could be greater relaxing then telling officers while they might and can't do something lol. that's long hours yet you do get loose time and weekends, plus once you get out the FAA will somewhat hire you and you'd be able to make as much as 120k and retire on the age of 50 two with finished advantages. Geospaitial intelligence loadmaster sounds like a waste of time in case you question me. How will that assist you to in any respect?

    Does not sound like a very good job. Take another job that you can do when your body gives out on you. Be patient and dont get stuck in a job you will regret. Military can do alot to your body so you never know what kind of job you will be doing after they get rid of you for injuries.

    Yes, a very good job with hard cash. Experiences: My cousin I believe works for at this.
