Coast Guard info? I'm thinking about joining the reserves. Mainly going that way first to make sure I enjoy it and that I can finish my next 6 months of tech school. I'm going to a tech school for mechanics. Will that help me any and should I wait to join or no? I understand that I wouldn't be doing to much as a reserve and that sucks but I guess I just want to get the feel first before I dive in. How bad is the pay? Anything I should look out for or do when signing up? What do you think?

Tech school won't help you for say. I've been in almost 9 years it ain't bad. Guaranteed pay check and medical for life. I'm a mechanic a lot of my friends are and work for dealerships. They hate their job. I get to travel all over and pull in cool places in the Caribbean. Pay sucks in the beginning but it gets a lot better. If you do your job and study there are so many idiots all you have to do is be competent and do your job and you look like a rock star.
