Sharia 0 Posted January 8, 2004 Hi there, guys. This is one of the few forums I go to, and it kind of feels like home. Anyway... at the moment, I am looking for what Career I want to get into. I thought about the British Army, but didn't really find anything I wanted to do... but I've been thinking about the Royal Air Force, and I found this... Weapon Technician What do you all think? And could you suggest other career ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted January 8, 2004 Well, I'm going to go out on a limb and say: if you can afford to get educated some other way, in a field you enjoy, don't be a career soldier. You might regret it someday if you are sent into a silly conflict, you can't really back down then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted January 8, 2004 Sign up for one enlistment. You might like it and realize that you'd enjoy doing it for twenty years. Or, like me, you might try it, have fun, but not feel like doing it anymore. At the very least it'll give you something interesting to do for a while and you won't have to worry too much about money.

No, of course not. :P That's just a crappy little joke. I used my DnD RPG character name for my username is all. Heh. Oh, and thanks for the advice, Bn880 and Hellfish... I'll take this all into consideration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Munk 0 Posted January 8, 2004 How about this...? If you arent really sure what you want to do (like I was until yesterday) just got to your local AFCO and talk to someone there, it really helps a hell of a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Gripe 0 Posted January 9, 2004 Its difficult to give you career advice without knowing anything about you! What subjects were/are you good at in school, what relevant interests do you have, we don't wanna know about your porn habit!! etc, etc. Apart from that do as munk says and go to your AFCO.

Sharia 0 Posted January 9, 2004 Well, looking around the rafcareers site, I found two careers I'd really like to look into... http://www.rafcareers.com/jobs....cer.cfm http://www.rafcareers.com/jobs/job_files/jobfile_pilot.cfm Now, I know what you're thinking... "pilot?! is he crazy?!" Not really. I've always wanted to be a pilot since I was a little tiny boy... but I was too pessimistic to think about following it on... But, I looked at my grades, and they are SO close to what it demands for these two jobs! All I would need to do is improve my mathmatics, and I could get in for training!
