[fretman124]

Me too. I'm a pretty big deal.

Matter of speaking, this week I go in to reenlist for the last time--1 more 4 year stint and I retire. Man I hope the next 4 years go fast. I am timing this perfectly to retire on the exact same day I went to basic training. Exactly 20 years to the day. :rockin:

My AFSC is 1W071A. Weather Journeyman Technician or some crap like that. They change it every few years to make it sound more important.

Hey Dude...I retired almost seven years ago. I worked on planes for twenty years as a radar/radio guy. The best thing about retiring....you make more money

And I don't even look up when I hear a plane anymore........

 

[medic_35057]

Paramedic for the past 2.5 years and love it! Spent 21 years doing architectural, structural and civil engineering. Broke my right hip and elbow and decided that I needed a career change. SWMBO gave me permission to go to paramedic school since I had an interest in it, so I did and could not be happier!

 

[Ridge Runner]

I'm about 8 mos. young at my first "payroll job" in about 7 years. Shipping, at an electrical warehouse. I drove a cab and on demand courier service for about 8 years. 100,000 mi in one year & got to missing the kid. Thinking about getting back into carpentry. Wanna build my own house in 2 years.

I've got 2 part-time jobs;

#1, working at the LHBS. Pay isn't all that good, but look at the fringe benefits. (Mr LHBS guy, can you test my homebrew, and tell me what's wrong with it? Me, your whole batch's gone bad. Bring it in, and we'll dispose of it for you!) Then again, there's; "Hey Steve, here's some of our latest Mead!" (Of all the Homebrewed beverages, I like Mead the best!)

#2, working at a freight damaged grocery store. (Can you say, honey for $11.99 a gallon, with my substantial discount added in?) (Did I say I like Mead?) Frozen berries for about $.75 a pound. (Melomel anyone?)

Of the last 4 brews I did, everything came from #2, except the yeast.

I tried the exact same thing, I reenlisted so my last day would be exactly 20 years from the day I went to basic. It doesn't work... For pay purposes they keep ya in til the end of the month. So I did 20 years and 11 days.

Actually, it's mainly the subprime market that tanked. And, since I don't do much subprime business it really hasn't affected me
