YSR_Racer_99 Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Seems that locally, when Wright Patt contracts are privatized, the people in the existing positions get a crack at the "new" positions. Any chance of that? Of course, may not want to put all of your eggs in that basket, but just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted November 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Yeah the way its looking is we will get the first opportunity but at half the pay I receive now. I can make that money at mcdonalds with a lot less stress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In doing so they will cut pay by almost half. The Ohio pers retirement system is going to get screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter12 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 (edited) Everything that the politicians said they will do, will be done right away, and without contest. I agree with Pauly, moar feer! I can understand being prepred, though. It might be a better idea to just build some savings to have to fall back on when you're sure that you'll HAVE to be looking for a job. I have had people tell me over the years that you need to always keep your resume up to date (and watching for something better.)

cOoTeR Posted November 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Well I'm going to call an air force recruiter tomorrow. Talked to the g/f about it and she seems semi ok with it. Lately that's been the main reason I have been hesitant in leaving my current employment to enlist. I'm really interested in the aero medical services.

Cypress Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 The service is an awesome way to go. Just make sure they put you in as an E-2 or E-3. Don't get the shaft like I did and get in as an E-1. It takes nine months to go from an E-1 to an E-2.2010 Military Pay Charthttp://www.dfas.mil/militarypay/militarypaytables.htmlActive duty is on the 1st page while Reserve drilling pay is on the 13th page.This is all based on "basic pay". There are other pay bonuses if you qualify for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CattaniAFJ Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 (edited) I had no idea how under-paid I am for my level of education. fuck college - i should have worked at DHL...Keep in mind man...I came in as a part time guy at the ground level making $10.50/hr when mortgages sucked. I got promoted to Team Lead in about a month or so when the Operations Manager got a hold of my resume (I had previous Asst. GM experience). After about another 2-3 months, I took over the Inbound department as Supervisor when I got to that amount of money. I had anywhere from 80-125 direct reports to me, so in reality, regardless of my education level, I was underpaid as fuck. The average salary for Warehouse Supervisors is about $65k/yr. I worked my ass off and proved myself to get that...I didn't just walk into it.If you REALLY want to make money and get paid whatever you're actually worth, get into sales where it is 100% commission. If you're worth $15k this month, that's what you get paid....if you're worth $1500 this month, that's what you get paid. Its the best thing I've ever done. No one is going to tell me what I'm worth.

Big Chief201 Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 I hate sales... a lot of people love it though the only problem with being in sales w/o a degree is if you want to get out of it and move to a managerial positions you could eventually hit a ceiling. Just my $0.02 if I could do it all again I would have gone to the Marines for 4 years left gone to college for free called it a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
