First, I rarely start topics so I hope I am placing this in the correct category.
So here is the situation. I am a Active Guard and Reserve Soldier for the Army National Guard. (So the military is my career, in case AGR is not something you are familiar with). I have been an EMT-B for about 2 1/2 years now with a volunteer department. I am start my Masters in Emergency and Disaster Management through AMU. I am also in the process of a divorce. I am also on the team for our building with does emergency planning, including training occupants, planning and executing drills.
Here is the question: Pay the wife an supporting the kids (three LOVELY girls!!) on an E6 salary right out side of DC has left me a little cash strapped. I am considering looking for some part time work at a private company in NOVA. Does anyone here know much about them. I had been living in Southern Maryland until recently, so I am not as familiar with the NOVA stuff. I know the privates are mostly Interfacility Transfers, which I have never done, always been a 911 EMT-B. Wonder if anyone knows about part time availability, pay, etc.
Also, anyone think I might be biting off too much? I usually perform better when under stress, plus it helps keep my wight down! LOL! General comments and criticism are also welcome!!
Thanks!!
