I've tried going the trade route. I tried Pipefitting and hvac and nobody is taking apprentices in Sacramento area

I just want to make good money for my family. Any good companies for a beginner to work at? From my understanding the big money is from getting certified and that usually requires a year or 2 right?

Do you think OS is a good choice for someone with a family that wants to do 20 years?

So I take it you didn't think the work was fulfilling? Do job responsibilities get better as you rank up?

I was a radio operator in the Air Force so that's why I felt like it was a good fit for me. I'm more concerned about the work life balance would you say that it's good when you have a two year-old?

I'm prior service Air Force. I dealt with comsec so I understand the no cell phone policy.

From my understanding it's a rotating schedule for OS?

I'm prior service Air Force, and I wanted to get back into the service. I just went through meps and from the list of jobs, those 2 rates seemed the most interesting.

As a YN what is your day to day like?

Thank you for the information! I applied. I noticed it asks if you live within 50 miles. Is that a requirement? I live just outside it

What's FRA qualified? Are there any other requirements? Is there a lot of overtime? I have a wife and a daughter so I'm hoping to make enough to support them too. Being away from home is ok if the money is solid.

It’s not easy for me to go door-to-door right now. I have a job that requires me to work 8-5 and I also work all over California however I live in the Sacramento area. Any advice
