I was offered a 2 year contract after the 1st year with the district. I turned it down due to admin telling me to be data driven but they aren’t fact driven when dealing with me. Walked with 4 engineering certifications. I think the 2 year contract was offered to lock me in to their values. Fighting, disrupting finals, stealing knives out of culinary, stealing from cafeteria = no consequences. But, they had an issue with a few cus words that I used once

I understand your reasons for being upset, however, in normal civilian life cursing is not acceptable. Now, of course, it depends on what words were used, because some very vanilla curse words can slip every once in a while. But you are no longer in the military, people will see this as a negative impact on your brand, your personal brand. If you are not understanding that you are now in the civilian world and that is not acceptable, you may need to take a step back.

Depends on the timing, background, voice inflection too. I can say ssshhhiiiittt when a controversial commercial add comes on when showing a YouTube tutorial

Students will let me get away with cussing as long as it’s a situation that’s generally accepted by all in the room as something that’s not targeted on anyone in particular.

Like loosing a rocket on top of the school roof for example

I will take that under advisement

I’ve been at our football games and the coach says all kinds of stuff. He even tells jokes at their expense

Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

I am a traditional reservist so I never really used military benefits before, but could use advice here.

I am currently renting and my lease is not up until October 2021, however I found a good deal on a home and scheduled to close in June 2021.

My landlord will not work with me to end the lease early, so it looks like I will have to double up on rent and mortgage through the summer.

If I went on active duty orders, can I use those orders to break my lease early without penalty?
