Default Re: Coolest job i ever had.

Damn ninja bumbers, but ok I'll bite.

It's a toss up between commercial fisherman and Marine Combat Correspondent.

Combat Correspondent is the best job in the Marines. You show up for the fun stuff, only do the actual fun stuff, and leave before the clean up begins. I got to do a lot of really cool stuff with a lot of different units. Plus a lot of unit commanders kiss your ass to get their name in the base paper.

Commercial fisherman - We'd go out for a week or so. Spend all day out in the sun drinking and fishing then eat like kings at night. At the end of the trip, we'd go sell the fish for cash, have a big roll in our pockets and spend the next 3 or 4 days spending the money partying, then back out again.

Good times.
