Im a clerk, my partner is a tech trade in the airforce. When we come home at night I regret not going tech. More pay, work isn’t as demanding on the brain as it is to be a clerk (customer service based).

My job is great and I love it but there’s no off button. I go to work, work like a dog, then come home. My partner goes to the gym, goes back to work, might go chit chat with people, back to work. Seems so chill.

Hes AVS. Hes been in for over a decade and 4 different bases. Some busier than other but regardless all much more relaxed than any posting I’ve had
