Defense industry, law enforcement, and surveillance are all instant dealbreakers for me whenever a recruiter reaches out to me. And sadly that seems like the vast majority of positions for which recruiters are looking for candidates.
That or AI shit.
I'm so tired of the tech industry.
When you're 60 and the choice is either a permanent contract for the army or 1 or 2 years elsewhere, you're going to choose army.
Nope
Oh you will, you will. Trust me, young people.
PS I'm not talking about the US military, because I'd rather live under a bridge for the rest of my life.
Just because you sold your soul to the devil doesn't mean others necessarily will.
If anything, doing it in your 60s is even more morally reprehensible because you should have enough world experience by then to understand what militaries truly are. Both the atrocities they commit regularly on behalf of politicians and vested interests, and the lies and manipulation they perform during recruitment to get young people enlisted.
