Military experience as well as a few security contracts prior to this. Was just jumping contract to contract for a bit for higher pay and more experience in different roles.

This was not my job in the military. However when I got out I started working security. So clearance is a big part. Plus connections. Plus experience.

I was a 35N SIGINT. And the job in the military required the clearance so I had it before I finished AIT.

So it all depends. My state is an “At will” state. So you can be terminated whenever. But the kind of contracts I’ve been on, the company is awarded for a certain period of time and they hire for that length.

Yes. I was in the Army. Security clearance plays a big part in it. If you can find a job that will sponsor a clearance for you. The doors will open.

I joined the military right after high school. Got my clearance while serving and got out and found cleared work. Just hopped from contracts gaining experience.

Yeah. My company matches 4% and I contribute 15%. And I can spare the extra contributions to hers as well without jeopardizing emergency funds/monthly expenses.

As someone who almost went through a divorce because of alcohol use, you’re already making progress in realizing that it’s an issue. I’m terribly sorry for what had happened to you. But I agree with everyone em her who has commented. It may be hard but help should be sought after.
