Did 8.5 years in HAA. For the most part it was pretty good. Mostly decent med crew, ok locations and my pay was good for the industry at the time. ~182 days a year on a 7/7 working 2-4 hours from home.
came across some long line training, started fighting fire then to precision work and never looked back. 8 years in utility now. The paying of dues sucked with a 12/2 but once I got on a rotating schedule utility is my favorite. I'm challenged or interested most days I fly, work 120-140 days a year, last year I made double my best year in EMS and I get to travel on someone else's dime. I use all the free air miles and hotel points to take my wife somewhere nice a few times a year.
The days of being a slave to a suitcase and working 300+ days a year to make it in utility are just about over. Wit's a decent skill set and reputation you can have work/life balance in utility now. |
