"It depends on your job (AFSC), and even more on the people. If you enlist as a maintainer like I unfortunately did, you're going to be 'shafted' on a regular basis by people who have no idea what they're doing, your peers will be bottom or near bottom of the barrel kind of people, and if you don't like hunting/fishing/football or you aren't from the south, you WILL be singled out and ostracized... good luck! Take what experience that you can while you have the opportunity; it's a fantastic stepping stone if you know the right people, and are lucky enough to be at the right places at the right time. Maintenance sucks, and AMMO sucked even more."

"I have been an Air Force member for 20 years. I have worked in several areas at 5 different bases. I have had 2 different career paths. The military isn't for everyone but I personally enjoy the structure of it. The pay could always be better but for the one weekend a month I give it's not bad. I have had several different supervisors and supervised a few people. I have learned that no one answer fits 'em all."

"I've worked with the USAF since 1999, I have learned how to work with multiple types of personalities and shops. I highly recommend to serve for at least a full term (4-6 years). I have traveled to many countries that I would go back if I could."
