If 10,000 guys got furloughed and were offered 91K jobs a tiny percentage might choose Home Depot or being a receipt/bag checker at the Costco door exit. 91K is NJ and FJ. Those are good jobs. Hard work but good jobs.

I had the same thing happen to me. Just completely ghosted me. Then emailed me months later after I had already found a new job to try to reschedule. Ridiculous

I recently went down to their offices to interview, and it was a confirmation of all the things I read on here before going there. I would take the interview, Oxford is a cool little town to visit for a day, but I wouldn't reccomend anyone sign their draconian training contract unless it was impossible for you to work anywhere else.

Good lord, get a grip and put some value on your skill set. Being a vet and deploying for months and years is no excuse. There industry is full of us.
First lesson: your civilian employer is not your friend, does not care about you, and will pay you as little as possible. There is no "greater good" other than money. Your mantra should be "more money, more time off," and fight to get it. Don't settle for scraps.
