3521 / 3522

I HAVE GOT HUGE NEWS.


EMPLOYMENT.

Yep... I know, I know. For those of you that are still in your chairs... let's take a moment to let the others pick themselves up and sit back down and recover from Blacking out.

That being said... It's official. It's been a tightly guarded secret as not to Jinx it, but... No need to keep it anymore. Starting Monday, I work for DS2.

I know... What's DS2? Well, it's easier to just look it up in Google. But, they are a base contractor here on base that I believe just won a contract to take over some Military Jobs here on base. As some of you may know, Civilians are slowly being asked to perform jobs and tasks that Marines used to do. What that means is... I have more than likely become a 3521. What in the hell is a 3521? Well, it's the same thing as Heather. It's a Mech. Working on HMMWV's, LVS, and other Green vehicles, performing 1st, 2nd, and some 3rd echelon work on these vehicles. If you've been around the military for a number of years, you've slowly been seeing more and more jobs turn into civilian jobs. Well... I guess you can chalk me up as one of those civilians, now.

As I understand it, I should be working at what might be Division Motor T. For those of you that have been here before, it's the Motor T lot behind the Steam Plant, sort of across the street form the Hadnot Point 7 Day store. So.... yeah, it's a base job.

New Contract, so I think the hours are gonna be out of this world at first. Lots of OT. That's just common to new contracts. It was the same with Hazco at Pendleton.

I will post more when I find out more.

Some of you are wondering about pay. My Dad taught me a great life lesson to never talk about money. I can just tell you that... it's enough to keep us ALL happy. Basically.... It's great.

Take Care.

I out.

We're going camping tomorrow for a few Days at the Beach.

I'm married to a Heuer. Every once in a while... Her luck rubs off on me. If you're a Heuer, you won't get it. If you weren't born one but married one or know one... You'll get it.

Later Skaters.
