Any links to employment in Iraq?
The question came up at work - would like to see classifications - as a measure of what kind of work we're doing over there. Its now classified as a humanitarian mission. How much of what is happening is actually "human". :shrug:

1. Actually I think a fair amount
But it is worth checking out. Rebuilding hospitals and schools and what not, getting the infrastructure. Admittedly it's an infrastructure we bombed to pieces, but still.

6. not MY field
but i think its the need for careful preservation of "data" so that the experts can do the proper analysis work. Disturbing work, takes a special commitment to truth.

7. Yeah, what I wanted to say was I thought of this as I wondered
what jobs were for hire in Iraq. Were they looking for people to piece back the culture that was destroyed in Iraq.

However, the more I look at it, I think this job is probably more a matter of preserving govt files and crap.
