That's self awareness right there

[MrRyry]

Damn, Steve-O lived a whole nother life after getting sober.

In the military everyone is on board for the mission because if not people die. In civilian settings everyone isn’t even on the same mission.

I was employed 10 years at a private ambulance service. The company had a contract with the V.A. We would always respect the rank of everyone regardless of status (active or retired). Some of our older veterans had alzheimers and/ dementia. Play the role of a subordinate was far easier than trying to order them to do anything. The military life never leave a old soldier. In fact I would say as their mind the deteriorates it rises even more to the top. God bless all of our servicemen and women. I personally have seen how much a sacrifice way to many have paid.

My husband's post-retirement boss really gets it. He only hires ex-military and he understands the mindset. But he also knows how to redirect and ground these people's minds. He helps them to learn negotiating skills. It was a hard concept for my husband to swallow. He could no longer say, "Do it." He had to convince people to do it, inspire them, make them want to do the thing.

He just gets better and better and better. I love that he's still growing. Nobody should stagnate until they die. I'm so proud of him.

I love listening to Chris Beck speak. He is such an interesting, intelligent and well spoken man. The wisdom he has gained through his life experiences is so valuable.

I didn't know Gary busey was in the military

[patrickcoyne]

well that’s how it goes. when you want the power it corrupts you. when you don’t want the power, you are a leader.

I work for an engineering firm, and one time we hired a retired major from Canada's military who was a Civil engineer but also had combat training. He joined the military right out of high school, and ended up retiring at an early age and joined our company shortly after. On more than one occasion, he tried "pulling rank" with coworkers, and most of them either laughed or told him to fuck off. He was a great engineer, but his mouth got him fired, and he was so volatile that a restraining order was issued against him, and he's not allowed within 500 feet of our office.

It also happens a lot with some people who get out of prison. If they were respected and feared inside, they get on the streets and expect the same treatment and it can cause major problems and often leads to reincarceration when someone unknowingly crossed their boundaries and they respond with violence like they would in prison. I personally know people who have spent years in prison and in the military..and noticed both acted similarly for the first few months when they were back in public again.

My father was in law enforcement for 30 years. Growing up he would talk to me like a cop and never a father. He could never switch it off when he came home. He loved me and was a good father, but I never had a true connection with him because of it.

[youtubecensorship]

I dont mind, our boss as an electrician barks out military orders and some guys get butthurt, but its pretty nice having clear concise orders and well labeled time frames.

[Lymborium]

Dropped the shit as soon as I was out. Couldn't tell you the orders of a sentry a few months after I got out lmao

I took a job at a shipyard doing equipment maintenance. I had been a mechanic for over 20 years at this point. My supervisor was a retired Ranger. My first task was to find an electrical issue on a crane. The wires were bare in many places so I unhook everything and go up the harness to where it was good and cut it all off. He walked up asked if I found the problem about a minute after the harness hit the ground. I said yes wires are bare I am going to rebuild the engine harness. He looked at me and asked if I had marked and labeled everything. I thought he was joking and laughed. He turned red and thought he was going to yell at me. I jumped off of the machine and asked him if he was honestly so dumb to assume a professional mechanic cannot rewire a machine with six basic logic circuits. Well I was an MMA fighter at the time and he saw I was not amused nor intimidated. He calmed himself and said just do it and stormed off. A month later when I had removed the heads from a modern pickup had the harness with over a hundred connectors hanging over the fender all unmarked he just looked at me and said. ( you better not quit until this is back together) that's what I call improvement.

Sgt. Airborne still comes out 30+ years later. When he does the look on their faces is priceless.

[jackhaugh]

I work in a surgical center outside of DC where nearly everyone is either prior military or a military spouse, and we have the best team I’ve ever worked with in a career spanning over 30 years in surgery.
We all understand one another, and no one’s ego gets in the way of the mission which is to provide the best possible care to our patients on a daily basis.

[WaterBug]

He is amazingly self aware. As one married to a usn r captain who worked with seals from nam to storm I can attest to the difficulty of relationships with a god. A therapist once told me of 5 vocations they see the most red flag trouble with. Military, law enforcement, pilots, doctors and attorneys. What I wish I had known.

[nicholassprague]

I’ve worked with a couple former seals and they were both good at giving orders and were good collaborators… I never had any problems listening to someone who knew what they were talking about…

[Sixfigas]

For me the hardest thing about being a civilian after 20 years of military service is standards. It’s hard dealing with a world that don’t have the same work ethic and will to get any and every job done.

[dustinalexander]

As a Retired Navy Chief, I can say this is absolute fact. I couldn't imagine operating at the level these guys do. Controlled insanity. ⚓🇺🇸⚓
