I was going to say, dang , youve had some crappy jobs then got to the end. You represent what these fools in the park will never understand, narcissists that they are. And I agree about your message to those fools.

I've had a lot of jobs over the decades. More than one that I disliked enough not to show up again after the first day. I had one that I never came back from the lunch break on day one.

If I was Sr. Program Manager for a Fortune 500 company, that would head my list as the worst job of my life. It's good that there are people who enjoy and are good at that sort of thing.

“Mess crank for 5 months onboard a Fast Attack submarine - slept on a 4x8 sheet of plywood on top of Mk48 torpedoes”

Had a high school buddy who went into the Navy after dropping out of college (1981), became a navigator on a fast attack boat, loved it, spent 22 years in, last 6 years at Groton as an instructor, earned a BS and MS in the Navy, now working for a to-be-unnamed defense contractor earning six figures plus, it’s what you make of it that counts...
