Yep, though I've been given the feeling that today's Hi-tech industry doesn't really require academic degrees much. Experience in units such as mamram seem to be enough.
Do you still work in hi-tech? if so which company?

Re: Farewell cruel world
My Tironut should be 3 months, but I also know it should end at November 2 at the latest, lets see if anyone can figure out where I'm going to
As for females, by default they got to none-combat roles and only have 2-3 weeks of Tironut. I'm a bit exaggerating when I say this, but most end up as some sort of secretary 
Of course, there are quite a few that want combat duties, and they do the same things their male counterparts do.
And yes, I'm home for saturday, but that probably won't be happening too often.

I think that's the difference between "female soldier", and "female military support personnel". I know I'd be annoyed at anyone calling themselves a soldier for going through a 2 week camp on how to properly make your bed, and what an MRE is.

Re: Farewell cruel world
Yes, they usually let you go back home the first saturday. In my basic training, only after the first weekend did we get weapons&proper-training so we could start doing guard duty ourselves.
