If you ever end up at Ft...Thanks for the response.<br /><br />If you ever end up at Ft. Benning, let me know. I still have some friends at a few of the big companies there (and I know some headhunters) and I could pass their information along to you.<br /><br />I know the career thing is really a crapshoot. I understand exactly how hard it can be and so much of it depends on where you end up and if there are any companies in that city.<br /><br />Another option is to do freelance from home. www.elance.com is a decent company to work with. I did that for about 3 months and probably pulled in a total of $1500-2000. I viewed the biggest benefit of it as maintaining my "working" status so that when I moved to an area that DID have jobs, that "hole" in my resume was filled. <br /><br />Good luck with the work thing. It's difficult, but it can be incredibly freeing and it keeps the Army from becoming your entire life. Plus, it can create all sorts of opportunities for your husband if he decides to get out. I've had several employers offer him jobs if he decides to cut his career short.<br /><br />I know I say this all the time, but I really do mean it. Good luck!Army Wifehttp://www.armysuperwife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
