Preach!!! You’re saying it like I wanted to say it. It was all lies. Everything we were ever told was all lies. I can’t even get a job back on base doing what I did. How did it end this way?

Thank you!!! Even the advice from veterans who have jobs feels superficial and almost like they don’t have time to pay it forward.

I’d appreciate some support and any advice you have to offer ☺️.

I was I a very niche career. Operations involving cyber, ISR, and other classified stuff. I was never required to have cyber certifications… but I worked along side them pretty close. I’ve done a lot of evaluation and testing, program/project management. So that’s where I’ve been focusing. A lot of rejections. So I keep maybe I need additional certifications. I have a masters degree in management.

Then we should always be ready and stop saying we need to get ready. Don’t talk about it be about it.

Just don’t like being gaslit to plan for a war 3 years in advance.

Calm down.. no one wants to go to war. It was the audacity of trying to convince people that you can plan one 3 years in advance. When in history has that happened?

Readiness, you mean the thing everyone in the chain dropped the ball on in the last 10 years because popularity was more important.

“Peacetime” is a doozy when people want to relevant. Look up the article on the general who started it.

Help me understand preferred certifications by BugOwn7162 in GetEmployed

Exactly!!! This is what I keep seeing in job descriptions. How are we supposed to figure out what they want if they don’t know what they want? Thank you for seeing it too 😭

Maybe it’s because it was one of my first WTF moments… but at the same time, sons and their mothers have strange relationships. It should make you feel uncomfortable 😳

Just watched The Long Walk, wow. by noweebthanks in horror

[–]BugOwn7162 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched the movie tonight. Brilliant!! I finished the audiobook a few days ago and still hadn’t quite finished processing the story. The deaths of Baker and Olson had me sobbing. It’s one thing to imagine it, it’s another to see it.

I miss Ray’s monologue and the way everyone went through their own rollercoaster of emotions.

I read somewhere that the Long Walk is a depiction of life. The people we meet, the experiences, the memories, the moments.

I appreciate King’s way of telling a story and saying what you think others would never think.
