UKsparky in N.I., United Kingdom 39 months ago	KBR are still looking for 100+ electricians... UK JIB electricians in Iraq as it is British Standards. But only paying the Journeyman rate... they are saying there is a chance of being upgraded to a master but the word on-site in Iraq is that this is not likely! 12 - 18 months work left. but on B site camps are left I think. - Was this comment helpful?

max88 in Lima, Ohio 39 months ago	DOUG, HANG IT THERE, IT WILL WORK OUT.....They need mechs and I understand with the driver snafu, there may have been some rec's let go, with all on their plates just what they need is a second serving, I'm sure it will be corrected they are not just gonna deep six you..... After watching what Journee,Barb and the rest have done I think you'll be ok. If you force the issue by just showing up ???? I know that it's easy to say if it's not you........JUST BELIEVE IN THE FORCE, IT WILL WORK OUT. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

carrigon 39 months ago	mona weir in west columbia, South Carolina said: You all are not gong to believe this ! I had this feeling in the back of my mind that I need to call and make sure this is for real. Guess what ? It isn't . I called Pauls recruiter and he said no , he's not supposed to be coming , that must be one of the requisitions I forgot to pull. Isn't that nice ? I hung the phone up on him . So now we are back to sadness Mona - so sorry! my thoughts and prayers are with you guys...hope something comes through soon! - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
max88 in Lima, Ohio 39 months ago	GEORGE GO TO page 230.... then jump to one of the freq. flyer pages listed....YOU'LL have to go to each site and sign up.....Don't know anyone that does it for you.....The YA-YA's have been doing that for their guys. Good Idea was to put all airline w/your account #'s on a small card and laminate it. If you can find a UPS store they do that. I'm gonna put my calling card info on it too!!! Put it inside the passport, it'll be there went you check it. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
carrigon 39 months ago	Debbie Creery in Gatesville, Texas said: Greg is home. We returned home this afternoon after 2 days in Bossier City, LA for a couple days of gambling. Lost our money but he had time to catch up on sleep and quality time for us before we came home to the grown children and the three grandkids. He was looking good but still a bit tired. I will be watching the site and posting when needed but I think there are plenty on the forum to keep everyone's questions are answered. Good Luck to all and I'll me back in 13 days. LOL Debbie Enjoy every minute!! - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

jdcs wife in Southern, California 39 months ago	Koko Wilson in AS, Florida said: There is Kathy. Debbie C has it all down pat--be she is off enjoying RR with hubby for now. There is info somewhere on this board--many times over I am sure. I haven't any info on other then I know they start to get paid on wheels up day--8 hrs. Switch and JDCS may be able to refresh us. I know if my hubby gets out of there in the next few days then we should see a pretty good check come April pay. Your hubby left after mid mouth so you are probably right, won't see anything until April pay--but will be a good one. i think if they are in country by the 15th they get paid the first fri. of the next month. tell your hubby's to check with HR to make sure that direct deposit has been activated.. someone dropped the ball in houston with our account and jess was persistent once he got to victory and he got payed the thurs. after everyone else got paid.. \ - Was this comment helpful?

George Turner in Texas 39 months ago	GAZ, I suggest you take it to Houston and you can always put it in a flat rate USPS 10.95 box if needed, to send it home. Im gonna be in Houston tommorow, and I KNOW that as a Heavy Recovery Mechanic I will be at Anaconda for atleast 2 weeks for training. I plan on bringing my cell, laptop, and some other entertainment for the 16+ hrs of flying from Houston to Dubai. I may keep my cell with my and take the battery out just in case of an emergency.... - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

When i came over last march i roomed with a recovery mechanic. we wheels up at the same time. anyways it took 4 weeks to get thru all the training. I used my laptop in my container to watch DVD's since the MWR only had 2 tvs and they were always on sports - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

tstorm in Plan 39 months ago	George Turner in Texas said: Tstorm was that the training at Anaconda? Yes we got to anaconda on the 29th of March. i am MHE i left May 2nd he left the 3rd or 4th but from what i remember he was on nights most of his training. You get to do a lot of fun stuff like pick up tankers that were blown up etc but you have to do it as a team and you wear that kevlar vest and helmet so lot of additional weight on you - Was this comment helpful?

George Turner in Texas 39 months ago	I know that there are supposed to be 2 weeks of training for drivers but I wonder how long it is for Recovery? I would think that they would tell you how they want the truck hooked up per the base rules. Ive hauled alot of military equipment over here and sometimes the commander will tell you that he wants it secured a certain way ( Chaining a Humvee by the chain ties on the bumpers instead of chaining the axles down)...... - Was this comment helpful?

Koko Wilson in AS, Florida 39 months ago	Hi Atanyia! So do tell–if you get a chance-- is it everything you thought it would be? The sights, sounds, smells? What’s the weather like? Is it like a city where you are at now? The camp I mean? - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

Koko Wilson in AS, Florida 39 months ago	And they allowed him to keep his job? I didn’t think hankie pankie was allowed– no mingling between the sexes or the ranks as far as KBR and the military. The idea being that everyone is there to do a job. As a matter of fact I think this is considered grounds for dismissal. I am not naive, I understand it happens on the sly, and I am sorry it happened to you and yours. Sounds as if you were well rid of him. You are in my thoughts and prayers, and hope you hear something soon. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
switch in Austin, Texas 39 months ago	Morning everyone, Koko thats strange no holdovers. My hubby had to go at the weekends too, must have changed. Well only 11 days left till my hubby comes home, so much to do and not enough hours in the day !! Hope we have a better week on the forum next week and that people start getting jobs and departure dates. Its been a bit disappointing as of late. Take care and Doug i hope you got something sorted or you will just have to hang with us for another week !! - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
blessed2bme in Adrian, Michigan 39 months ago	Atanyia Smith in Biloxi, Mississippi said: As I was reading some of the previous posts I could not believe that some people family members were unsupportive. Like others I understand that there is more attentioned focused on the middle east due to what's going on, but I look at it as no different than being in a city with high crime rates, such as New Orleans, Detroit, Chicago, etc. You can not escape everything in life, you just have to be cautious. Good luck to all and take care. Another point I made to my friends and family who have been giving my DH and I a hard time...currently he drives about an hour and fifteen minutes to work, starting on the rural back roads near our home and ending up in Metro Detroit. I feel that he is more likely to be injured or killed driving back and forth everyday than he is in Iraq. With the economy the way it is, more and more people are having to make those kinds of commutes to find work and in my opinion, that is just as dangerous, if not more so. - Was this comment helpful?

Yes i went to see him at the weekend and he had a holdover meeting both sat and sun, i went with him. Do you live in Houston? They dont usually let you go home even if you have finished training and waiting around. They might of changed the holdover meeting deal seeing as this is the first time ive heard that noone checks in at weekend. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
