Most likely you'll go to a ship but there are plenty of chances of pulling shore duty out of A school. I had an entire class that graduated a few weeks before me all get shore duty to Guam. Special CNO orders that had to be filled asap. You have no say in orders other than filling out a dream sheet and hoping you may get what you want.

Though you really need to get rid of that "I don't want to fix copy machines etc" because you'll end up working on a lot of equipment you don't want to fix and that kind of attitude won't bode well with senior ETs and especially Chiefs.
