I had to jump through a lot of hoops to get this job; I imagine it’s much the same with Polar Services. I had to do the medical, psych eval, and chemical/biological warfare training (that was a joke). Plus loads of paperwork. My contract ends in July, so maybe I can transition straight over. If not, I’ll do another year here- it’s ten grand a month tax free, but this has got to be the most dangerous place in the world. Working here is very much a game of russian roulette. If Raytheon gets back to me before the end of my contract, I’ll follow up on it- time will tell 🙂
