  • The Army came to my highschool my senior year and put on an exhibition. They had Humvees and APCs and a massive wall of speakers that would make a passerby deaf at 40 yards. You were able to get out of class if you went to the event and listened to their pitch. I was one of like 4 kids who didn’t go. Parents weren’t told about this in advance, and there were recruiters there with pens waiting.
    TBF, my school did have JROTC program but still… I think thats what set off my long history of being anti-that.

    I still keep touch with some old coworkers. They give me all the dirt on how bad its been since i left.
    -It took 3 positions to replace me when i was “let go”.
    -They have gone through dozens of people in the couple years since ive left.
    -They lost a couple BIG contracts because of how many mistakes and mis-shipments there were (warehouse job).
    -Their ratings have gone from 4.5+ to a solid 3.
    Just for fun, i applied to their indeed listing last year because i know it costs them money, and it would set off my old boss. I got a phone call from my old coworker almost instantly laughing hysterically at how the boss was screaming and yelling with her mom over the phone and in tears.
