Default Ohhhh Crap

I just recieved a job offer in Afghanistan. I did a year in Iraq, I am not sure if I want to do this.

Anyone in a similar position? They want me to deploy within two weeks

I've got a buddy that does contractor work out that way. Prior military. Extremely good money. He hates it while he's out there, but he LOVES the cash that lets him race when he comes home...and rebuild all the bikes he keeps crashing.

if you don't have committments that requrie you to be here, then go for the money while you can.

push hard when you're young so you can enjoy life at a better pace when you're in the mid life numbers.
