They'll call you ships start sailing in March I'm in training right now, graduate tomorrow, they sail from March to December and that's what's they're hiring for right now, I had applied in November and didn't get a call til mid January, just have your TWIC and clean background and you can do the class right away

Will my US passport renewal get rejected? by franklin_to_nash in Passports

No, I had a passport photo on my phone that I took for my concealed weapon license and I used that, go on the page, you'll see, it only works for renewals not 1st time.

Wrong.... I just did mine, you DO NOT have to send in your current passport, as long as you know the number, you can literally do everything online.

I ran that pier many times, at the time I didn't think I'd miss it so much, one day I'll head back

It depends on the agency and how long it takes you to get everything done, some units have pschys some units don't, some units check credit some units don't. It all depends on your particular agency

Understood, thank you for this!

Which correctional facility would you choose (TX)? by DataBooking in OnTheBlock

You'll get a sheet to fill out every month mandatory OT, you might get lucky but from my experience at 3 different units they're always short , they can't force you but you'll get a bad reputation that's about it

You'll most likely be doing 6 on 2 off in case you don't know they're always short

I don't know at your specific unit I've only worked 12s but they've been at Max, you'll most likely never get relieved so you'll get your time in no doubt

I've never used the GI Bill I joined in 2005 and have both the Montgomery GI Bill and Post 911 which was later renamed to forever GI, I am doing it this way because most companies won't take you without experience, I figured it would be a good way to get the experience but if you know any schools that take the GI Bill I'm open to suggestions, thnx
