No good deed goes unpunished. An interesting thing happens in the military. If you are too valuable at your job they won’t let you go do the extra training that you need to get promoted faster. The shitbags that cause more work are sent instead.
We had a total shit bag in my unit and while we got to go do work, he was jumping out of a Black Hawk. When I was being processed out with a medical discharge, my life became so chill as they sent me to do the tasks they didn’t want to send their capable people onto. My 8-10 hour days turned into 3-4 hours. If I wasn’t being processed out, someone like that guy would have been doing it instead.
The military really does encourage being a shitbag.

I do not think that is unique to the military…
