I don't know how you ppl feel about this, but i just took
my tests/physicals, to join the United States Airforce. I
need to take an extra aptitude test to qualify and change my
job to a comp. programmer. But until then, i'm currently a
Nuclear Wepons Scientist. I'd type up the job description
off my printout, but i'm really tired, and need to catch up
on two days of sleep.

-wish me well.

my freind worked with a guy who was a maintenance tech. on
aircraft carriers for the USAF and he used to creep under
the scaffolding and girders at the front of the ship under
the deck and spend hours tokin and looking at the wake as
the shipped glided through the north atlantic!!!......class.
That and some SAW2 would be amazing.......Watch them nukes
though!

Top notch nanotech, good luck to you.

One of my mates joined the UK airforce (RAF) and didn't
declare that he was OC as his medication was concealing it
well. Needless to say they weren't best pleased when he
forgot his medication and started acting strangley a few
weeks into an exercise...

i could never be in the services.

i have too different of a view on america, and i dont think
its in my personality.

but it is hardwork, and i commend you for that.

You'd think the son of a colonel could at least SPELL it
right. :-p

Man, that sounds like hard work... I couldnt do it. Watching
movies, reading books and newspapers and seeing shows about
life in the military, I've come to the conclusion that it
is SO not me. But I definitely respect the hard work that
goes into it. Shit...

Wow, the last thing you want to do is to fuck up in your job
:s

Good luck, much more interesting than being behind a desk 8
hours a day.

hmm..somebody with a consience and an open mind entering the
services can only be a good thing...maybe you could be the
one to persuade the bozos out for vengence not to scrawl
things like NYPD and FDNY on the bombs and missiles
obviously out to decimate innocent cvillians...

Ofcourse he would! to join the USAF you submit all
decisions. You are commended for your compliance.

thats mad man, i think your job is the total opposite to a
life i'd like to lead.
all power to you, i mean thats what you want to do in life
abd i fully respect it, but man, talk about opposite end of
the scale.
