So you TG3 or ex TG3 now 4 guys I was wondering IF you do leave, or looking at the possibility of leaving....What exactly would you be interested in doing on leaving.....Occupation wise that is.

Serious question.

Do you want to stay in the comms world, or try your hand at a 2nd career?

JL.
 
I'll be moving into the Business Intelligence arena.
 
Must admit had enough of the IT stuff, I fancy going back to the trade that I was before I joined up..

I was a Butcher (Still a skill that is needed and in short supply) Its a bit of a nightmare trying to find resettlement courses etc for this as I must be about the only person at my Location that wants to go back to this.. I just get blank stares at the resettlement centre I go to at the moment... They must be all veggies :):PDT_Xtremez_31:
 
T93,

Pension trapped at the minute, unfortunatly 7 years to do.

But if I were to leave tomorrow, maybe a postman, driving instructor, golf course marshall.

Something completely different from the thinking enviroment.

TG 3 type employment

TG 3 type employment

...been very lucky and always stayed on Radar and Airfields so my I.T. is very limited. (well Rapier - lucky ?) 3 and a half Yrs to go and im really looking into Radiographer. X Rays - CT Scanners and the like. Its a 3 yr University Course which is a pain but they take people on them up till late 40s and its guaranteed work till your 60s with tha NHS plus second pension. Had a look at a text book and an awfull lot of the technical stuff is very very familliar. Got to bone up on anatomy ( bone up - heh heh heh - never mind !) but doing an OU Science course to get me into the bracket for Uni acceptance. Not deffinate at the moment but its the only thing to float my boat job wise....
 
Few irons in the fire, may put on civvy suit and stay depending on DTR, may go and teach First aid courses. There are a couple of other possibilities.
 
2nd Career....

2nd Career....

No contest, I'm more than happy to cut grass anywhere (preferably a golf course). At least that way I can look behind me and actually see a result for my labour at the end of the day!
 
2 words for the career of choice for a proffesional swordsman like my good self:

MALE ESCORT!

Hope the wife doesn't read this, although she does call me "Lancelot" in the sack!:PDT_Xtremez_30::PDT_Xtremez_30::PDT_Xtremez_30:

Just what i wanted to do.

Was on det once in a random small airport, watching a guy on a ride on lawnmover. Not a care in the world, start at one end then up and down until you reach the far end, then start again. Brilliant.
 
I left 3 years ago and stayed in IT

Aimed too low though so it took me 2 years to get into the job/level that i should have had straight from the RAF but you live and learn

now in a good IT/Comms PC/server/IP telephony job on fair pay good holidays
 
22 years, bloodhound, dvcs, HF TX and RX, Rapier, ASACS and finished in GRMS, so i hit all areas of tg3 and no IT, so im off to do ground radio job with a civvie company on an army airfield........

Funny that, she calls me "King Arthur", and the "sword in the stone".
 
Retire. Book a round the world airfare with 21 stopovers and stay away from it all for 12 months. Then move to Spain and buy a villa in the sun.
