This is a bit of a pre-emptive search but ten minutes ago I was handed papers that said my heart condition was too severe for the Navy & I was to be separated within 30 days. Seeing as how I really have no ties to any specific states and can work anywhere for peanuts this may be my one chance in life to pursue what I am passionate about which is cigars. This brings me to my question does anyone know of a cigar shop, or really any job dealing with cigars, in need of a worker. I have college degrees if that helps any. Thank-you for taking the time to read this. VR Stoops.

There has been a recent add in the Orange county and LA area craigslist posting for a cigar rep for a local company. Search CL job postings for Cigar.

Sorry to hear about the sudden notice, but it sounds like you now have a great opportunity to pursue. Good luck in your search, and take care of that ticker!

are you getting a med sep or retire? i got the med sep from the navy and they let me extend the 30 days to 90 for job hunting and such.

good luck on doing what you love, i did the same thing when i was pushed out medically and i haven't looked back.

right now it is unknown how the sep will be classified so I am going to legal in the AM to try & get things squared away. I just don't want to call my parents till I have everything ironed out that way they don't worry about this.

I'm thinking about giving notice at the B&M where I work. However with that said I wouldn't suggest seeking the place out. There is a bit of a nepotism there and that's why I'm seriously thinking about leaving.

Maybe hook into one of the large distributors or one of the reps that come to the stores for the dog and pony show? Good luck with your search and your health!:ccowboy:
