Man, I've been doing it wrong all my life, public sector is where it's at. And you're former military, tons of jobs there for you.
No!

That's your tax dollars. Wake up to the world around you.
I know a guy who sleeps two hours at work a day and gets paid 45 a year. I work two jobs and just rode a bicycle, that I bought at Goodwill for 30$, home 5.5 miles at midnight. I am doing shit wrong, lol.

That's not a military saying, that's a saying in literally every job every where.

I was sitting there filling out some paper work and I look up and see 5 employees trying to unload 6 pallets. (You know, take the plastic off, carry the boxes to area correct area, etc etc).

About after two minutes of watching them completely fail at trying to operate a pallet jack, I say "Here, let me handle his, I have some experience in this." Get them organized, knock out those 6 pallets into the store room, deconstructed and placed under 20 minutes. 6 people working it? Too many people. Spent most of the time in traffic jams. I could have done it by myself in less than an hour no problem, boss looks at me and goes "you got the job."

Had to laugh a bit on the inside.

I've no idea how long it would have taken them if I hadn't taken over.

Don't use any form of the word deconstruct. One breaks down pallets or skids, okay?

Breaks down is a form of deconstruct.

Nope. Remember, I don't do credit, or mortgages, or loans.
