Title: Afghanistan
Post by: sfa22r on December 08, 2009, 08:56:27 AM
Anyone here worked over there as a civilian?  Gonna be heading there on the 20th for a year, trying to get a good idea of what to expect from the civy side of things.

you're an idiot for doing this. having a rifle and being there was bad enough, there's no way in hell you'd get me there without one.

I'm not legally allowed to be employed by the peace corps.  Job is with DynCorp. 

And you didn't say that Dan, you said you would ask your woman.  And your woman laid down the law like a MAN.

Pay is in the six figure range, 90k of that is tax free, awesome benefits that continue after the year is up (contract has an option of 4 additional years w/ combination of here, there, and European locations).  8 weeks paid vacation a year, and free round trip airfare for that vacation.

As long as your priorities include ridiculously good pay, time off, and accepting inherent risks of being a shitty country, then pack your bags (of ammunition).

Gonna be doing IT/SatCom/VOIP work at an FOB. 

Can't bring my own ammo/gun into the country, as it's a huge no-no.  The ops manager I spoke with today said I will probably be provided one depending on which FOB I am at.  Waiting for him to call me back in 2 hours.  That's when I get to make my decision

Do it have fun. It ain't even that bad over there. If you're gonna be way out in the middle of nowhere just know where the extra weapons and ammo are kept. Enjoy your time there. It's odd how it grows on you.

That's generally what I've been hearing.  Gonna be there for a year if all the paperwork goes through.

Because, you are a homo with an iPhone

Good stuff enjoy your time. I'll be heading over there in the next six months or so. It'll be a good time. Remember it really is what you make of it. Take advantage of some of the things the MWR offers. It gets pretty boring sometimes. Good time to get huge. LOL  O0

Pay is in the six figure range, 90k of that is tax free, awesome benefits that continue after the year is up (contract has an option of 4 additional years w/ combination of here, there, and European locations).  8 weeks paid vacation a year, and free round trip airfare for that vacation. 

My friend did that twice, both times he got unemployment too, top tier payout. First time he didn't stay too long, paid lotsa bills and bought a new truck. CASH. I mean waited 10 days the bank mandates, filled up a breif case, and dropped it in their faces. 2nd time he went and bought a decent house. This time it was only a wire transfer. :( Too bad I already bought the ski mask.

I think he was in Iraq. He said his was more intel junk, and he just stayed in the compound. No booze since it was iraq. Dry, dusty, hot, boring. Unless you like butseks.

Pretty much how my trip is gonna go.  Plan on coming back to the US and dropping some coin on a Ducati, just can't decide what I want right now.  Rest is going towards college/house
