anybody else out there reached a cross-roads and unsure what to do next? well i have. don't know if anyone else can help, or even whether or not this is the correct forum to try but here goes.
been in over 7 years as a rigger now on brink of promotion (2 spec recs but still not holding my breath), been told several times to go for commission but unsure if the forces is going in the right direction to entice me into commiting myself (let's face it, it's become more work less carrots) to a commission.
thought about entering the world of the civvy but once the safety blanket of the RAF comes off i haven't got a clue what i'd do, don't think civvy a/c work is for me.
volounteered to come out to basrah, to try and sort out what direction i wanted to go in i.e. stay in the RAF or leave. i go home tomorrow and after 4 months with the army i'm still no closer to knowing what to do.
it's too easy to stay in and pass the time in an attendance course RAF career and i don't want to do that.
feel i have outgrown SAC life and want fresh, more demanding challenges. i do plenty outside of work i.e. sports and secondary duties but feel no reward or satisfaction from my job.
not sure anyone can help but any suggestions, or if anyone else is in the same boat please reply to this. cheers
