I think I'm joining the Air Force....

CantWait wrote: Well after a lot of consideration and the fact that jobs are so hard to come by here, I think I've decided to join the military. I'd be joining as a imagery tech, which in short is film and photographs, it would be under the Air branch. I'm waiting to hear back from the Warrent Officer there in charge of recruiting to answer a couple questions regarding whether or not I can go Reserve or Full Time Regular Force, but I think I've made up my mind. The only thing that is really stopping me is missing out on the kids activities and Anthony still being so young. Right now is a really good time though, because Ron works normal hours for the most part and isn't sceduled to go overseas for quite some time.
Wish me luck, and I'll keep ya posted on the progress.

kit_kats_mom replied: Wow Marie. Big step.

I will say that joining the military really was the step that turned my mothers life (and mine by default) around.

Good luck.

I mean you having to go to one place and he has to stay put?

Kaitlin'smom replied: wow best of luck to you

CantWait replied:
No because since dh is already in and his rank is higher then mine, then they post us to whereever he is.

MommyToAshley replied: Sounds like you have put a lot of thought into this. Sounds like a great opportunity.

Mommy2Isabella replied: Wishing you the best of luck. ..

I know I thought about it. But I don't take to people telling me what to do all to well

gr33n3y3z replied:
Oh thats great then so it will work out just fine
I'm happy for you Marie

CantWait replied: UPDATE:

The WO called me back from base, and after giving me some information told me that imagery tech is actually quite popular and that there is only 2 spaces on the base, and both are filled and won't be open for years.

sparkys2boys replied: Ok with work I am soo behind in the news. Sorry that it didnt work out Marie. Is there anything else that you could do that would be of intrest to you? I am sure that something will come along for you when the time is right. Keep looking and when you least expect it, it will find you!!

CantWait replied:
There are other opportunities, but nothing where I would have the same passion for. I'm still thinking about it though.

sparkys2boys replied: Well, keep thinking on it and it will work out no doubt!!
