Funny, at MEPS I was gonna be a mechanic for a chinook but I have contacts, damn near blind, and i was eligible for that job when I tried to sign. So I said fuck it EOD lol.
if you know about vision, my right eye is -6.75 and my left eye is -6.25
Dude thank God. I didn’t ever even imagine volunteering for EOD. Did you become needs of the army and they made you a tanker?My first MOS was 89D (EOD) but I failed out of that AIT on week 16. What a nightmare that was. I literally got to a point that I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing and couldn’t “disarm” Russian explosives.
Yeah it’s pretty bad. I’ve looked at lasik but doctors said it wouldn’t be worth it for me.Holy shit! I'm -4.75 and I thought I was blind.
Yes. They gave me a list of 20 or so jobs, and to pick 6. So I picked 6 that I thought would be good.Dude thank God. I didn’t ever even imagine volunteering for EOD. Did you become needs of the army and they made you a tanker?
And you have a bed at work. Super winBut I like what I do now. Firefighting is Easy. Only work 2-3 days a week (24 hrs a shift) unless I have to work a double.
sucks not being home when I have to work, but I get paid to be on this forum, and BS unless there is a fire or something.
Yes the bed is nice. I get paid to sleep and eat and poopAnd you have a bed at work. Super win
