[QUOTE="Orion inc., post: 2202975, member: 58808"] Yeah working "outside" in an auto parts warehouse is not the same. The heat is not the same. The pace is not the same. You won't have time to go into the AC in your office and cool down when it gets too much like you probably do now. It's much much different. The metrics and expectations they have now are not what you think. I've seen ex military guys quit and say it isn't worth it. You better be ready for that. And yes once you go to school and get assigned to a center, you'll be an on call TCD in the southern. Which means very little notice. So hope you are ready to give up your 90k job you have now. At your age, you're taking a big risk with little payoff. FT for the long term is a young mans game especially if you want to get a full pension. You'll be old and crippled most likely by the time you make that all happen. You might want to look at that angle too. And yes during your 30, they can DQ for anything. The way you park, late airs, bad Orion trace, accident, injury, missing work, anything. Hell, don't grab your handrail and they can DQ you. That's exactly what it is like now. This new breed of management doesn't care and they'll hold your feet to some impossible fires. [/QUOTE]
