I done did it

So i joined the air force...next Tuesday i drive out there and stay in a hotel and wednesday i got to MEPS im not exactly sure what that stands for but its where i get my physical and everything...and then my recruiter is going to be out of town that wednesday so i wont be able to pick my job until friday when he drives through duchesne...i hope i get one in the medical field it would make me becoming a doctor alot easier...but yeah i left my folder downstairs or i would tell you benefits...but one is like cheap insurance its like 47 dollars a month for full coverage and everything and then say i need surgery for anything like say january of one year i will only have to pay 1000 dollars out of pocket...and then if i have to get surgery again that year i dont have to pay a dime...its kewl that way...plus i get paid so much for working the one weekend a month and 2 weeks a year thing...and when i go to college i get that money to...so they set you up financially really good...

Good luck! I didn't know you wanted to be a doctor. Did I? That would be really cool. Maybe I should join up too. I could so handle paying only $47 per month for insurance. Try $700! That's why we can't ever come out there and visit--all our money goes toward our medical expences and our house payment. Anyway, let us know how everything goes!

well its alittle more then 47 if you are married and have kids but i bet its still better then 47

David said...

It is about $180 for a family! Unless you are on active duty like I am now, then it is free!

Congratulations, David! That is very cool.

So, once you are done basic, do you just go home and get a regular job on top of the weekend/month and two weeks/year? Or, will you start college in the meantime? What's your plans?
