Air National Guard
If you had to ask me what the best decision I have made in my life was, it would be joining the Air National Guard. The time commitment is so minimal compared to the benefits. 100 % tuition, GI Bil every month that has allowed me to live without a job for a while, traveling....the list goes on. I will keep this short and sweet. The job that I do is truly one of the coolest in the Air Force. Being an airplane mechanic on one the Air Force's most important assests continues to stimulate me mentally and has been a blast. I love everyone in my shop and actually have gotten to the point of looking forward to going in there. Not to mention, it's an important job and it is a great way to serve your country. As of right now, they are offering a $20,000 signing bonus for my AFSC (job) in the Guard.....This is on top of 100% tuition, loan repayments, GI Bill....all for one weekend a month (24 days) and 2 weeks (10 days) a year....Figure an OSU Tuition is $12,000 a year (4 Quarters)...Throw on GI Bill monthly pay, your drill pay....and the signing bonus....you are getting paid thousands upon thousands of dollars to attend school and do roughly 34 days of "work." Which is rarely ever considered work to me...Point is, if you know of any youngins looking for the greatest deal ever and a way to pay for school, Send them my way...I will be completely honest with them and can not stress enough how unreal the deal has been for me. Of course, if you still have a few years of school left, or just want to see the world, make some extra cash, serve, and hey need $20,000.....you can sign up to...and for those of you who know me, you know this is a good deal...
