Does anybody else have a best, worst job you've ever had?

A job that absolutely crushed you, but looking back you're like "man, that was a really valuable even though I wish it went differently"  😩😩😩

I was an aide while in the Army and worked 15 hour days for a year, but damn I fr got an education on people.

We’re you an aide in a deployed situation or on the home front?

Either way, I’m sure it was intense & thank you for your service!

So what happened once the brigade was deployed? You didn’t stay on as an aide? On the one hand, could see the value and efficiency in keeping an aide in place, especially when being deployed, but do they rotate aides regularly to provide experience to more up and coming officers? (I assume aides are officers?)

I was an aide while stationed at Fort Bliss in El Paso, TX while the brigade trained for the deployment. 

So it was like military Office Space in a Catch-22/Vonnegut preparation context haha

I was basically the “fixer” for my 700 person unit - if the boss wanted it I had to figure out how to make it happen 🫠
