I have a friend that gave up full time guard work here in the states for a contractor position in Afghanistan. Working with generators or something.

States jobs not likely to go anywhere ill make a bunch more money, and between the boredom of reg life and how much regular americans annoy the fuck out of me its a good time to go. Only downsides will be being away from vic, the animals, and the bikes (prolly sell most of the toys, dunno) but if I don't go next year ill go in 12 or 13 so why not?

Okay here's what I'll do... I'll take Vic, the NSX and the bikes off your hands until you get back. I promise that I'll keep them all well used and maintained while you're gone.

I think its Afghan, but Im not 100% certain...I'll see if I can track it down. Unless he's changed career fields, he's an IED finder.
