Didnt help with much

But I found an old Singaporean dollar

lol, all those 80's engineers were over in south asia

He wasnt even an engineer

you didnt have to be to get a job over there

my grandpa didnt rven finish 8th grade and he was lead engineer on a wind power farm in the phillipines

(which is probably why they ended up hiring ghurkas to kill him)

Oh nah, my dad didnt even work an engineering job

He worked directly for those top of the class dickheads

IDK, I was one of those "too gifted for blue collar work, too poor for college" type of kids

joined the Marines as Infantry post 9/11

now im in my early 30's with no qualifications that dont involve counter-terrorism

My dad joined in 86

2 years after hopping on a plane from Colombia

He started off small, eventually he worked as an organizer for the logistics and deployment of task force and military advisers for US friendly regimes and shit

He was there until 1994

So he was in Panama and Desert Storm

yeah, I started as infantry, ended up intel, then ended up doing covert stuff

you get out into the civilian market, find out that about 200,000 guys like yourself are all looking for work, and that all the crazy shit you did never happened and that they'll give you $15 an hour as a prison guard

Militias should be the primary organization

'sall I'm saying

officers get to write memoirs and have tenured positions as war historians at some university, enlisted get to start at zero 8 years behind thier peers

But tHe Va GiVeS AweSoMe mEdiCal!

The war machine is truly terrible

@VICTOR117 Yeah my dad has a love-hate thing for the VA

He was lucky though

@VICTOR117 Fug marines army infantry better

Fukken pog

After he quit the military life, he worked for social security where he made good money at the time

Im trying to get on with state troopers

60k a year starting

The MIC is a deep and evil shit

But ever thought of being a contractor

got a baby

kinda need to not be an absentee parent

No not that kind

meh, its a flooded market

we've been at war for 20 years

unless you were an officer, or know the right people, good fuckin luck

Next boom is coming I can feel it

doubt it
