So the other day I said I had some big news and here it is
I accepted a new job!!!!!!!!
I am going to be working in Alaska this summer. Yes I am still going to be fighting fires, but I am no longer going to be on a hotshot crew. Yes I will definitely miss being on a crew but at the same time I think it is time for me to take the next step. I have never been to Alaska before but have always wanted to go so it will be a big change, I am excited and scared. I am going to be working as a fire suppression specialist. what is that you ask. well go here and it will give you a little more info about what I will be doing.
I am starting work on Apr 14. I have yet to figure out if I should drive or fly. I am going to be stationed at a remote location for part of the time, so I wouldnt even be able to use my car then. I haven't really had the chance to talk to the guy that I am going to be working for yet, I dont know a whole lot yet.
I will be sure to keep everyone updated and I will take lots of pictures. It is just like me job now in the aspect of I will be working 6 months and then having 6 months of, I am still considered a full time employee and I get benefits and everything like that. So come fire season I new chapter of my life is about to begin. stay tuned for the adventure
