The Christian Science Monitor<\/a> tells the story that when an online career guidance firm, CareerBliss, polled folks in regards to their current employer, the top eleven employers included all of the military services and the Army Reserve;<\/p>\n

CareerBliss used independent reviews to evaluate companies based on opportunities for growth, compensation, benefits, work-life balance, career advancement, senior management, job security and whether the employee would recommend the company to others.<\/p>\n

In a review from the more than one thousand appraisals written by military members in 2010, an Army administrator in Georgia wrote, \u201cServing in the Army offered the ultimate job security, not to mention an unmatched benefits package. It was also a good source of gaining valuable technical and real-life experience.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was the hardest job I’ve ever had to leave. Even factoring in all of the miserable days and nights and the low pay (I made $156\/month as an E-1, which is more than I make as a blogger), it’s the only place (besides this job as a blogger) I got paid to be an asshole.<\/p>\n

The hardest thing I’ve had to do is be is a former soldier with world events swirling around me and I can’t be a part of it. I guess that’s why I volunteered to go back on active duty in 2006.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite challenges that may occur when serving our country, including the possibility of going to war, the military provides many of the essential elements to finding happiness at work, including having a meaningful impact on the world, having true camaraderie with your co-workers and having the opportunities to develop skills,\u201d Brummel said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Only those who’ve never served can’t understand why we loved it so much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
