Well all, as you most all know, Ive been deployed as a Drill Sergeant at Ft. Sill for the past year to conduct regular ole combat basic training. Well.....We did a memorial ceremony for veterans day (tuesday) at the post cemetary, and after that, our commander told us to start out-processing and to be clear of Ft. Sill by the end of the week(last friday). I sure will not miss it. Getting up at 0400 every morning and putting the privates to bed at 2100 (4am-9pm) just wears one out. Got some good experiences though. Watching the few scared of heights cry at the rappelling tower is always good. And running them through the gas chamber.....now thats a sight!!! My platoon got honor platoon every cycle (me and my other Drill Sergeant buddy work well together) for the three cycles we ran. Now Im home, and cause my company lost the contract I was employed under, Im also unemployed! I knew it was coming, just didnt know itd be so soon. Im actualy still on orders until Dec. 12th to finish out all my accrued leave, so I got a little time to find work. Now Im looking for a job, perferably something more permenant. If any of you know of any prospects for someone with a BS in Psychology, an ***ociates in Geography, 3 years as a restaurant manager(dont want to do that again, at least not for a restaurant) and the last three years as a Finincial Aid for a Federal Grant counselor, Id sure appreicate any leads. We(me and the Mrs.) both kind of want to move to a town with a college with a medical school. Its good to be back, but I cannot spend any money on car parts now till I find something! Go Figure!
"We(me and the Mrs.) both kind of want to move to a town with a college with a medical school." Columbia, Missouri. MU owns University Hospital plus half the City,including another of the Hospitals and a Bunch of Clinics and there are three or four smaller Colleges too. Fulton is within 20 miles and has two more Colleges. Last I heard, some Magazine had rated Columbia one of the most desirable Cities in the US to live in. Atch works at the VA Hospital in Columbia.
Dirk, with your background you need to work for the feds. I preach this all the time but it's the best game in town. Not to mention the most stable. Gravy train
Dirk, PM me with a contact number. I could be in Stillwater tonight for a meeting at our office there and would be able to meet with you if you are interested. Let me know asap so I can finalize my schedule. Maybe grab a bite to eat and visit. George
NC!!! Raleigh is within an hour of Chapel Hill, Duke, and East Carolina, all with respected medical programs. There's also about 5 other colleges within the same distance. Several mental and psychiatric places, and they're hurting for people... Here's the state website, for gubmint jobs... http://www.dhhs.state.nc.us/ Do you really tell them to push their way to China??? Good luck on it, Steve
