I have around 12 years and some change experience of working in IT, but recently got rejected from a job because 8 of those years were working IT in the Army.

The people I were trying to get a job with said it didn’t translate. The resume I put in with them had no military jargon in it, I explained the software and hardware I worked with, and for my reference sheet made sure to only include civilian contractors, General Schedules, and the professors from CompTIA, Microsoft, Cisco, and Google whomst I got my certs from so no military personnel, but they still said I didn’t have the ‘correct’ kind of experience.

What the fuck happened to the job market, gamers?! Like the job market now feels like the dating scene and every single person you wanna have a relationship with is either only looking for a hook up and has stupidly high standards! What the fuck do you mean my IT experience in the Army isn’t the ‘right kind’ of experience?!

Bitch out my dick.
