Resume

I am a smart dude.

I served as an enlisted man for 22 years, holding a TS/SCI security clearance, and retired honorably as a Master Sergeant. I was a computer communications technician.

My superiors relied on me to know my job, and to complete any task they assigned. I made them aware of any setback, need, or other deficiency in capability.

I have spent my *entire life* asking why things are done the way they are done. The result of that has been to discover that often, there are very good reasons why things are done the way they are. I have also learned that the opposite is true. A lot of things are done the way they are because it was easier for someone else. And there’s things that are done because that’s the way it works around here. And because we’re used to it, or never thought about it. And because I said so. And because I have the authority. Or because that’s what it says on the screen. The screen that was trained to be the median, not really correct but who cares because it’s good enough for something not that important.

I don’t just follow orders. I stand for the sanctity of divine life. I stand with the understanding that each of us has the right and the capability to end our neighbor’s life, or to uplift it. Wouldn’t you like to be my neighbor? We can talk about whether it’s smarter to lie face to face so we can see each other or back to back trusting there’s not going to be any knives involved.

I have laughed in my superiors faces, and I will laugh in yours if you ask something that strikes me as comically inefficient or explicitly counterproductive.

I am a see through the cracks if there’s any daylight at all, infj, green, so deep inside the box that we’re in another dimension so it does it not even count surroundings of box thinking critical again we were where … so …

I have a mask I can wear where I’m a professional military retiree.

I have a mask of a crazy old man on the corner, screaming about the end of the world.

I have a hippie mask that says enjoy your crazy, stupid, short little life, you freak.

I have a wizard mask. I have a warlock mask. I have a druid mask. I have other masks.

I am a human being. I can make your organization or your product run better, smoother, faster, more efficiently. I can identify and propose solutions to ineffective processes. I am aware, alert and intent in each moment.

I do not care if you hire me, or join the literally every other person but one on this planet who has decided not to be part of my life. I offer my lightning anyway, whoever you are. I think you’re special, and divine, and have the power to manifest reality … or at least affect everyone’s in the vicinity.
