Message	There is literally money coming out of the ground. Someone competent from the military can work their way up to 100k a year with entry level skills, year 1. After 5 years in the right company you could be looking at a $250k salary. Ridiculous benefits. Anyone struggling with life or jobs or whatever should consider Odessa/Midland texas for the job market with 4% unemployment. Also Texas is going to have the next housing boom and it wont burst like California. Biut there are plenty of good paying energy jobs in Colorado, Wyoming, Dakotas, Alaska... just gotta look around. ___________________ "If everybody is thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking." ~~ George S.
