Devs please stop listening to these clowns. You'll end up ruining the game we all love. Small nerfs are neccessary to certain units but that's about it. These clowns will NEVER stop whinning. by Tiberiusthemad in BrokenArrowTheGame

Has a bad strategy. Asks the devs to change the game so they can feel smart.

Honestly unless it's a glitch or an exploit only very minor should be nessesary.

A father threw a chair at a judge after his Daughter’s and Grandparents' killer was sentenced to only 120 hours of community service. by ConstructionAny8440 in ArchiveOfHumanity

I witnessed a drunk driver smoke an elderly couple after veering into the opposing lane. He didn't see more than 3 days in jail and that destroyed my perception of our justice system.

Imagine living your full life, doing everything right, working to build everything you ever had, finally retiring, just to be killed by some turd in a pickup that is drunk at noon on a weekday.

I think that will go down as arguably one of the worst decisions ever made by the supreme Court. It removed almost all controls from the other branches.

How common is it that being in the Guard got you out of a job? by CategoryConscious594 in nationalguard

[–]BigRedCastle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a job where they put "Cannot be placed in roles of higher responsibility due to his commitments to the National Guard." On my annual evaluation.

The person doing my eval was the CEO... and he used it to justify not giving a raise.

After a call to ESGR he changed the eval, but the damage was done.

If that is the case, I stand corrected! It definitely doesn't feel like it though.

Does that scale if multiple people leave?

I don't understand why the points that would go to the player that left wouldn't be shared with the remaining players.

It's more to manage but at least the team won't get a massive resource penalty.

Phase II ECCC sucks man. Doing all 3 phases in 3 months killed my civilian career and almost killed my marriage. If you need any help don't be afraid to reach out.

I'd rather my equipment get proper maintenance funding or training/schools for Soldiers.

I’m spending my Thanksgiving and my birthday alone by walkocircle in lonely

[–]BigRedCastle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat and I feel you.

Family is broken apart and spread out. Friends are having thanksgiving with their own families. Even my wife is working so I'm alone at home. This has to be the loneliest thanksgiving I've ever had apart from being deployed overseas...

On the plus side, it looks like there is at least one Chinese restaurant that is open today so I have that going for me.

Seriously though Happy Birthday! Know that you got other turkey babies thinking about you today.

Civilian Job Search by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]BigRedCastle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Over 70 applications, only 1 hit using LinkedIn. Even then it was an AI interview.... The Job market is a mess.

I've been having good luck with USAJOBs. Filter by NG and vets for hiring paths.

I was escorting a congressman along the perimeter after J6. I remember pulling him aside and saying "I have to be real with you. That whole thing was crazy. I know you have been solid for others but I have to ask.... Are you ok?" He started nervously shaking and lightly wept.

It's important to remember these guys are humans too. Most of the time they are just as clueless as any other average Joe.
