The whole world has gone fucking crazy!

  1. I am a veteran.
  2. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a 3.75 out of 4.00 GPA.

And everyone wants to use asinine assessment tests to gatekeep me out of a job. I already jumped through four fucking years of hoops, spent tens of thousands of dollars, gave up tens of thousands of dollars via opportunity costs (I could have been working a job during that time).

And if I don’t complete their test I don’t get the job and the person with a GED or High School diploma who does complete it gets the job. They only want compliance and the abilty to utterly control you.

    Don’t kill yourself. Your life is worth living, even if this is a rough patch. https://www.va.gov/health-care/health-needs-conditions/mental-health/suicide-prevention/ ( it’s the va, I know, I know… just talk to somebody)

    Just because you have excellent ethics and qualifications doesn’t mean everyone else is so truthful and honest. An assessment is just a small filter to ensure everyone is on the same page. It’s like requalifying as a marksman periodically.

    Your four year degree has value, it demonstatres you can focus and complete a multi-year project successfully. That’s valuable in industry.
