Tell me again, what were you planning to do once you got out of the Army?

Yeagh, I know. Computer programing, or IT in general is not a good line of work to be in if you want to make a lot of money. There was a time, during the Tech bubble that it was, but not anymore. I know this and expect this.

I have a set of principles and they don't change when its my butt on the line instead of someone elses. I'm not going to tell someone, "hey thats unfortunate, but its what happens and we just have to adapt" and then when the same problem faces me turn around and say "Wait a minute, I didn't really mean that. . !" Even if I try to get a defense job, the market is still saturated.

In that case I'll be tutoring english and drawing my GI Bill and Army College Fund to get a degree in something else, maybe Geology? Thats quite a long road. . .
