 The Exposal Ordinance Disposal Job Field is a master of nothing jack-of-all-trades. You can't learn everything that is required for you to learn because at the end of the day you're going to forget the stuff you learned in January when it's December and it's going to be time to relearn it again and that appealed to me greatly. I enjoyed the challenge every day of coming to work as an EOD technician and having to figure out new problems, find new solutions to things that people haven't seen before, and deal with new situations that people haven't dealt with before. The idea that I'm going to get something new, something different, I'm always going to be learning truly appealed to me. Exposal Ordinance Exploitation gives us a deeper understanding of all these ordinance items. Anybody can read the publications on many of these ordinance items that we carry in our library but everyone within our community agrees that a deeper understanding is always gained by taking these things apart and understanding how they function, how they work, what makes them safe. A uniting characteristic that I've noticed with a lot of EOD technicians in my time is that we are an interesting bunch because of the way that you have to think about this job. You must always be flexible in your way of thinking but at the same time there's always going to be an eccentricity to a lot of EOD technicians. You learn in general that when you tell somebody you're going to go do explosives work. It takes a very interesting person to say that's a good idea. I want to go play with that.
