I never thought I'd say this ... (Kilala.nl (Cailin Coilleach)) by Cailin Coilleach

Over the past year a career in the military has started to sound pretty good to me.In the past I was always very much against the idea of joining up, mostly because of my distaste for anything related to war, which is what makes me so surprised about the change to my inclination. It's been a gradual process mind you, fed in part by my brother in law who's in the airforce, by Menno who tried to get into the commandos and by getting glimpses into dutch military life (televised they may have been, yet still they were glimpses).

As I said I'm rather opposed to the whole idea of war and I have no particular fondness or pride for my country, but there are other parts of a career in the military that attract me. Now I'm not saying that I'm going to make a switch at the drop of a hat or that I'm even going to. It's just something that I'm adding to my list of possibilities if I ever get tired of corporate IT. In case you're curious, other items on the list include carpentry, cooking and gardening/landscaping.

This blog post was brought on by one of JeffX's buddies suggesting a military career to Jeff, knowing that he's not that interested.
