Training: International UXO Program, Texas
Here is an idea for the job seeker out there. In the past, I have worked with a few guys that have gone through this training and really made it work for them. This type of work will take you all over the world, cleaning up munitions in war zones or old military ranges. It can be quite profitable as well. The UXO guys I worked with were in Iraq, and I got to see first hand what their job entailed. It is tough work, but interesting, because you get to treasure hunt for cool old bombs and muntions and blow them up. On the downside is that it can be dangerous, obviously. But on the upside, you get paid six figures(in war zones) and are saving lives by getting rid of those munitions.(keeping it out of the hands of the enemy, and protecting the locals from accidents) (more…)
