[QUOTE="Orion inc., post: 1983039, member: 58808"] Did you enlist? Did anyone force you to enlist? No? Then you went into that knowing exactly what it should involve. And yet this whole paragraph you wrote sounds like you were forced. You weren't and good for you. I don't really care what you e been through in life. This holier than thou approach you have because you've been in the military? Oh ok. Many people have been in the military and don't have this approach. They're called "quiet professionals ". I've trained with many. I have a lot of respect for them. Not someone who stands there flaunting it like you seem to be. Go be an ORS. I'm sure it's not as stressful as your military career. But when you don't make their impossible expectations or you question what they want of you, please tell us how that works out for you. The culture of management is different today here. You've embraced it with blinders on. Nobody is asking you to sit on a porch. If you need this to validate yourself or prove yourself because of your failures you think you have in life, knock yourself out. But when it's not all roses and butterflies like you've painted it in your head then you can look in the mirror and blame yourself. I know nothing of you but what you've presented here. And it looks like you're doing this to prove to yourself that you're worth something. Maybe your divorce made you feel like a failure and you see this as your way of showing that you're something. I don't know nor do I care. But I think you're going into it with blinders on for all the wrong reasons. Like I said, good luck. You definitely will need it. [/QUOTE]
