Jobs ( curious question)

It's all to each his/her own... Some people's ways of doing things are different. If you feel that the only way to provide for your family is to be gone all the time, then do what you feel is best and what will provide for your family. Personally, I couldn't do it. I'd go crazy. But good luck man! Life has some wild curve ballz. I do have to agree with Cutter a little though. If I told my dad something like that he would deff snatch that stuff up and say " you better get outside and do something productive with your life!" I got plenty of that with my Sega!  I won't analyze you or try and preach, but I will say that you could probably find something closer to spend more time with your family. If that isn't a priority, then like I said, to each his/her own, and who am I to judge. Good hunting out there to ya bud!

To each his own,  this post has me speachless.  My son lives out of state, our time together is limited, so i make sure when he is with me that l spend every moment possible with him.  It is my responsibilty to share time, and our country lifestyle together.  I do without a lot but i will never have to look back in life and know that i didn't spent every moment possible with him.   One reason he wants to be with me and spend time with me is because he is my priority!  Had i not made  our time a priority, he wouldnt know my lifestyle or want anything to do with it.  I could go on all day about this!   The close i get to GOD the closer i get to my family!

Im going to throw my 2 cents in here just to give yall an understanding about charles and why we do what we do. yes i am his wife and i support him in leaving me to work overseas. I have been a military wife for 8 years and went through 3 deployments with charles. My mind set is if i can handle those deployments i sure as hell can handle this. for one he is in no way in danger. I guess im a tough army wife and independent i learned to live that way with being a military family. I work full time at fort hood i have our dogs, family and friends that im always around and most go through the same thing im in. do i want my husband home hell yes but i know in the end we can live a little bit more comfortable. the military taught me alot but it broke us money wise. i know money is not everything believe i know. but with him working overseas it is getting us out debt getting our credit better got us our land and house. i firmly believe in everything happens for a reason and we all learn from our choices. charles was able to get a new job learning something new that he has always wanted to do and i knew in achieving that goal he would have to leave again i understood that bc he let me achieve my dreams. this new job also brings him a better chance of having a good job bck home here at fort hood once he gets done overseas and now a days the chance for a good long time job is far few in between i know once he is done overseas we have a better chance at finally being stable within our jobs. i have that stability and long term i want charles to have that to. i know this situation doesnt fit everybody but we all make sacrifices to make our lives better. i just sacrifice time with my husband. it just makes me cherish that times and texts and phone calls more. we dont go a day without talking to one another. some people on here might think he has no heart but thats bc yes he comes across that way on here but meet him in person get to know him u will see he does (sorry babe for blowing ur cover) just ask his friends and family he does alot for so many people i guess thats one reason we got in so much debt bc we helped out friends. now his son thats a whole different story. charles is a good father even if he dont believe it. he does spend time with him when he can yes its hard when u live 3 hrs away. im not going to get into a big spill about his son bc there is so much backstory to the whole situation. his son knows he is loved by his dad. charles is a good dad good husband and just wants to provide to the best of his ability and he is a guy with a tough outside and softy inside that he only shows to a few people. thats my spill thanks for ur prayers

kudos goes to you for supporting your husband and hitting the grinding stone right along with him! It takes s strong woman to do such things. In this day and age, you're right, it isn't the easiest to make a living that you can afford to be comfortable in. I understand this all too well... I am not judging him nor you other than saying I couldn't do it... But I hope y'all get back to where you need to be so that y'all can live a happy life together as a family. Best wishes!

Kudos Angel, I came up the hard way , the way you did what you to do and went where it required you to to pay the bills. A lot of people today insist on large salaries and big idea dreams but want to be 10 minutes from the house and dictate there salary needs . I don't work that way and A lot of America is quickly coming to that exact realization. I ve done everything from military, meat cutter, insurance saleman , oilfield rig hand and now I have a carreer working for the Federal Bureau of Prisons , We are hiring but people may have to get out of there comfort zones a little but it is a nice carreer. Just my take on everything .
