Should I Switch My Mos From 68w To 88m?
OK so my current MOS is 68w(medic) which i know is a good job, but i want to switch to 88m(transport). I currently work right now as a delivery driver for FIS, and i like driving around all the time. I picked 68w only because i heard it was a good job, but i have no interest there. Like blood and all that stuff doesn’t bother me, but i just cant really see myself doing that. Where i like driving trucks around and i am kind of a gear head. So i know what some of you will say, if you don’t want to do 68w then just don’t do it, but i wanna know from peoples personal experience at these jobs, is it a stupid idea to switch to 88m, and if so why? I would just like all the information available so 1. i make the right choice on the job and B. i am not unhappy coming in, thank you…..

Are you insane? Why would you ever switch from 68w to 88m?
68Ws are treated better than any other juniors in a company, by far. As long as you aren’t an ****bag, you get a large amount of respect from the soldiers who rely on you. Also, you sometimes do get to drive around plenty as a 68W, it’s called evac.
88M are essentially treated like crap and are often viewed as, not always justifiably, the bottom of the intelligence barrel in the army. They are also called “IED detectors” for a reason. But, that said, I do know some 88Ms who like their jobs.
