Woo... patience getting rewarded? =O.o=

I... well, I just got called by the TSA. =o.O= Not in a bad way, either. It's been just over a year since I applied, pass the screening tests, and was put in the queue for a background test and all that. They just got back to me finally, asking if I was still interested.

I said yes.

If I get the job, I'll have to move down to Tulsa, but that's okay with me, means I'll be far enough south to not worry about any road-salt at all. I just... wow, didn't actually expect to hear back at this point anymore. Glad I answered my phone when I didn't recognize the number. =^.^=

If I get the job, it's GSD pay scale to start... so, $23.6k to $35.4k... I really need to think about this now. =-.-=

Thoughts, folks? I get the feeling it'll be 'now or never' soon for picking what career I'll be doing for the immediate future, should I really look into trucking at this point, should I stick to security work, or should I take the TSA job if I get the chance?

Holidays are a non-issue for me generally, but (relatively) stable hours and being able to get time off without a lot of trouble are semi-requirements for jobs I'll keep for any length of time. Good to know about those obstacles, sounds like TSA wouldn't be for me.

Narrows it down to getting my trucking license, or sticking to security work. Upside of trucking: What rent? Downside of trucking: Mildly unstable income/schedule, or difficulty getting time off sometimes, pick one. But it'd pay more (since I'll make under $20k/year before taxes doing security), and make it could make it relatively easy to stop and visit folks, admitedly on short notice.
