Thanks.  PMEL world is small so I probably would know whoever called especially x AF.  Look forward to hearing from you.

[RedBones]

In all honesty, it will be based upon experience.  But hold some faith, becuase the company is very competitive for Los Angeles.

Thanks for all the help folks, the position has been filled.  Got a 6492 out of the USMC, because face the facts, Marine Calibrators are the best!   

Semper Fi!

I agree, Jarhead calgeeks are the best OOHRAH! Who is this devil dog? I might know him!

[USAF PMEL]

I'f I had a dime every time a jarhead said he was the best, I'd be rich.  The proof is in the pudding, not how much you blurt out "we're the best".  LOL

   If I had a dime for every PMEL guy that thinks they are the best, I would have Bill Gates cleaning my house.

I don't understand. . . How would you being rich make Bill Gates poor enough to have to clean your house?

You Air Corps & Naval Infantry slay me.

[Ronic]

I'm not too concerned with being "the best" but it would seem that the USAF PMEL were smarter because they never had to spend a night in a foxhole or a tent.   :wink:

Yeah for carpet and fresh cooked meals!  :-D
