[QUOTE="RIDDLER, post: 12028115, member: 108207"] Sorry for the late response, been away from the house a lot lately. Anyway I appreciate all the responses you all have given. Just to clear a few things up, my girlfriend is actually one of the few that is backing me with my decision. She knows that I really want in and can handle the task. Like the rest of my family she is a bit skeptical on the danger side, but I've had her read a lot of the research I have done and now she's on board. Back on topic though.. Yeah I'm still fairly young at 21 so $13k is somewhat appealing, however it's not that influential on making a decision to pursue EOD. Besides my interest that I already have in the job, I am thinking in the back of my head if I will ever be offered a job on my list. Like I said it's been six months and nothing has been offered except jobs that have been abandoned with unreasonable leave dates. I couldn't track down my original job list but off the top of my head I had put down mainly mechanical, electrical, engineer, and maintenance type of jobs as well as an avionics jobs. So I'm not sure if what I put down are jobs that are given out rarely or what but my recruiter was nonexistent in helping at the time. So with that being said and having an open slot, should I just go for it or wait it out for something on the list. BTW EOD would have been on the list the first go around if I had known what I do now. The one and only thing that really is keeping me from signing for EOD is the ridiculous washout rate. [/QUOTE]
