I am thinking off joining KBR and going to Irqa Too Drive a truck as they will take my UK driving intoo account and will not need too take test in US have got haz pack 1 through 9 is is alot hard from what is too get in the US as the eu reg are alot stricter over here.........dose anybody know off any one that has gone or going as they have offered me a job

 

Just Google Irag driving jobs. Listened to Sirius Satellite Radio a while back. On the "Road Dog Channel" they had several drivers who have been to Iraq. Sure the money is OK, BUT you drive junk and when the "shit hits the fan" the soldiers protect themselves first, not civilian contractors. You are not allowed to carry weapons, the heat and living conditions are really bad. A LOT of civilian drivers have been abducted and killed..You should look beyond the money, your life expectancy is not that great there. Will and try and post a link. KBR basically offers anyone a job who applies. They are pretty desperate.

 

Before you decide to go to Iraq, goggle for "civilian contractor deaths in Iraq"..lots to read

Why go there?

I have been to a place where they don't want your help and you can't tell the friendlies from the enemy.

Good Luck to you; but you should really consider staying out of there for health reasons. Not a good thing to lose your head over an issue your not a party to.

As far as weapons....a few of the KBR drivers I have talked to that have just got back have told me that even though carrying weapons was "against the rules" many of them carried them anyway without getting in trouble. Dont know if thats true or not, but thats what they told me.

 

Yes But they are offering green card ..................yes its double what iam gettingeleak in the UK about 65K stirling a yr but its more the adrline rush and danger one thing I know is the ragheads wont cut my head off they might blow it of but no way will chop it off.............the raido staion u told me ihas not back cat so cant get liesen to it if u check Liveleak.com they couldnt hit a barn door about 1 in 95 result in injury or death .........but if my number comes to the top of the big man list it dose not matter where Iam UK canada US Irqa or Timbuck2 I die soo if it what he wants then thats what happens Full Stop u see somefolk are scared off death Iam not...................

 

Good luck :wink:

 

So if you think the "big man" is about to pick your "number" save the time and off yourself.....just kidding. If this is what you really want to do then go for it but it seems a bit drastic just for a "green card", that green card will be worthless to a dead person.....my 2 cents....bd

 

Mind if I ask how old you are?

 

You sound overqualified to be a driver, why dont you enlist in the infantry instead. Sarcasm intended! :lol:
