PROFIT! or, I am going for a climbing instructor route for the next few years, If I enjoy it, keep it up with a view to opening my own wall, if not, back to mechanical engineering.

If/when you do come down this way, shoot me a pm, we could play at csw sometime. Some interesting jobs here, although Dave, i think thats the best idea
tashidalek Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 if i was 16 again i would join the navy as a chef. Now im nearly 20 and set in my ways im a waiter and chef.
JerseyRider Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 You can still join... Min age is like 30? Be warned you dont get any hours logged beeing a cheif in the Navy
tashidalek Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 yeah i know there are other reasons apart from age on why i cant join. unfortunatly. and i dont know what "Be warned you dont get any hours logged beeing a cheif in the Navy" that means.
JerseyRider Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Basicly Civi cheifs logg there hours and that is how you get Qulilys and Promtions But in the Navy the Cheifs dont logg there hours so when you leave you have no proof that you have done any cooking at all! This mean no Quilys and no jobs for you
Hubert Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Offer from Kings London to do War Studies. I'd love to take it. Job wise? Hahaha, don't be so silly, I haven't looked that far ahead I'd love a military career, but my health is keeping me back. At the moment I do small arty jobs. Proper painting, and painting toy soldiers.

Supporters M_P Posted March 22, 2011 Author Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 What type of pilots? Any really, just want some more first hand experience etc. Army pathfinder!? Top respect to you, itsf surprising how many people in 'elite' regiments and play airsoft . I know a few marine who do and a couple of para's and I'm trying to get my dad to start aswell. What exactly does an.raf armourer do? sounds cool
vtec_chris Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Whole range of jobs really, currently on fast jets so aircraft weapon loading (missiles, fuel tanks, gun), ejection seat servicing, gun loading. Or in servicing bays you could work on the pylons. Work in a bomb dump and prep laser guided bombs etc, or work in small arms and service L85s all day! Basically anything that goes bang on an aircraft!
Supporters M_P Posted March 22, 2011 Author Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 That does sound like a great job lol. I can't wait to join up, just got a couple of years of education to go
vtec_chris Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Go for it mate, haven't looked back since I joined.
Tristan Orr Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Im a BMW engineer. Personally I hate it. Civi street wasn't meant to be for me, but I had no chose in the matter, mother made my mind up for me. I was born into a army/RAF/navy family everyone has severed apart from me and my bloody mother! For god sakes I cant even get a MOTORBIKE! HELP ME!
