My usage of the word "fuck" and all of its derivatives
And who says that that’s a bad thing?🤗🫡🫡
Staying in shape
For me it was the realization that nearly all corporate jobs, especially mine, are meaningless. Being an Army officer was a source of pride and purpose, while being a consultant is just a way to pay the bills. But it pays the bills a lot better than the Army ever could have, and my boss doesn’t have legal authority over me.
Staying in shape is definitely the current challenge.
I had the existential crisis about a year and a half into my post-Army career, which was also right around the time Will Swenson received the MoH and requested a return to Active Duty. Nostalgia is a MF and not to be trusted.
I’ve found that even with the lack of purpose from work, I enjoy the day to day of consulting so much more (or at least am far less frustrated by it). And while the people in my year group are hoping to get selected for LTC in another year or so, I make more than a GO and get to live in New York. It’s not a bad deal.
Stay in lower body fat, I cope by saying I’m been bulking since I EAS in 2013.
Pro
I’ve been bulking (very efficiently) since 2015; might be time for a cut soon 😬
My sense of humor. Even after 8 years my wife still gets mad at me when I laugh at her. 🙄
Civilians are weird….they are just so blah
I mean you can only have so many “I got a payday loan to buy a chromed out F350, I then drove it to the strip club and met my future wife, we got married in Vegas, and now I need to figure out how to get her and her 5 kids registered in DEERS.”
The vast majority of civilian jobs don't matter. They simply push paper. They are meaningless.
Working on PowerPoint presentations to brief managers to brief directors to brief Csuite so they can move the share price $.30 is meaningless, soul sucking drudgery. Find what makes you happy and pursue it, because you're job probably ain't it. Do the job well, take your time off, and do something meaningful with it.
If you don't work out, nobody will force you, and therefore I am fat.
Shut your fool mouth before you say something that gets you fired, sued, or arrested for harassment... the same kinds of things that we said every day while active duty trigger snowflakes something fierce.
Realizing my military background will get me zero credibility in my org. Humility, coachability, and a tenacious need for feedback is what was needed. And yes, staying in shape has been the biggest challenge.
At first it was having to slow down and adjust my pace, and also have patience with new co-workers who worked at a very different operating speed! Later (and to this day) it became finding a meaningful work-life balance and letting my guard down to those around me.
Definitely my colorful language and sense of humor. Took me a very long time to be tempered enough to not get pulled into HR.
I honestly can’t figure out how that is an HR worthy thing. Seems like a perfectly rational comment.
CSR, why the ask? How do you feel about your Qs?
