Never let strangers handle your CAC.

PIV**Cat** was good

you're just mad you didn't think of it

Maybe a little...

But my two mental states are basically angry and sleeping.

So it's hardly an accomplishment.

I got interviewed as a character witness for someone's background check. I think it was for a secret clearance.

The interviewer asked if there was anything that wasn't covered in the interview that they thought I should know, so I said that she really likes anime. Sadly, the joke fell flat because the interviewer didn't know what anime was.

>she

Imagine helping a woman get a job outside of the home...

Surely you of all people know that the security clearance comes long after getting the job.

wat

you get _SOME_ job

but not _the job_

you can't get jobs that require clearance without it...

surely you know you can't get a job that requires security clearances before you get those clearances

@wolfman1911
Wat...?

I did my initial screen before boot camp...?

Even in the military it's part of the process when you're getting a new position... you don't start the job without the higher clearances....

As a civillian it's much more of a pain in the ass, but you just get some other job, or get sponsored before you have the job to go through the process...

but, if you don't get a clearance, they don't go, "WELP, enjoy the job"

Oh, I didn't know you meant you had a security clearance from being in the military.

Really we need to loosen up regulations on security clearances so the free market can do it's job..

It creates a monopoly because it's a burdensome cost of entry

@wolfman1911
That was one of them.

The two people I know that have or are getting security clearance work for defense contractors, so apparently the story goes that the clearance comes something like a year or so after getting hired.

@wolfman1911
Lol.

No.

Lol.

Fucking no.

🤣

To quote a downie...
> but, if you don't get a clearance, they don't go, "WELP, enjoy the job"

Well no shit

You think they get paid to not work for a year...?

I never said that you don't lose the job if you fail to get the clearance.

You're not getting the job with the clearance

you're working in some other position

Do you think defense contractors don't have things they can have employees do that waiting for a clearance?

Depends

they'll pay you to sit in a box to do nothing so they can write it down as part of their budget
