“I’m gonna start my own business, because I can choose CULTURALLY, who is a part of that.” I’m sold

[@norsemanbushcrafting1621]

Good mentality but dont lock down on it sht changes brither

[@thegreenlogbook]

Leaving military life is tough. It’s good to get out and find your next mission, find a purpose and surround yourself with like-minded folks.

[@David.M._1979]

Going to Veterans Job Fairs and never getting hired. Everyone loves veterans just not the hiring a veteran part.

[@yossidaiyan.6876]

I was in the marine infantry in my country and when you leaves that life you has the same problem that an addiction, abstinence syndrome.

[@NewTheoryMagazine]

Another interesting topic pat 👍

I retired from the active duty Army twelve years ago. My hardest transition was dealing with undisciplined civilians. Showing up late, lackluster effort and victim mentalities drove me nuts. Thank goodness I found a federal job at a nearby USAF base. All my coworkers are retired vets and it makes a huge difference.

I love what Black Rifle coffee does by hiring veterans but I would like to see them manufacturing their apparel in the United States. I bought a hat and I was surprised that is was made in China… still love the company and will still support them 👊🏼

the dude has activally donated multiple times to the Dems and has spoken out against kyle R during his self defense case and has shit talked his supporters

[@ashtonupton413]

What a B.S. excuse about Kyle. Then he & other owners gave a interview with NYT & bashed his core support & customer base. He called his base racist among other nasty comments. Every time I see an independent seller of BRC I tell them go read the NYT's article.

Biggest transition this man needs to make is on his Kyle Rittenhouse comments…

[@EcceHomo1088]

@A Man’s World 🌍 TRS is everyone’s worst nightmare… still doesn’t change the fact this man was seriously inaccurate on something so cut and dry…

[@dtsai]

@A Man’s World 🌍Military guys are great but they think they live in the real world. They lived in part of the real machine world that gets real ugly and we thank them for that if it was necessary. Machines have no feelings, people do. That's what makes us human. The military machine tries to take away feelings because you got to do things that aren't humane. Just remember, if you could be in the Military, you can do anything, including deal with feelings because that's what they fought for. That's liberty to feel differently, part of freedom of speech. In some place like China or Middle East, you have to think and feel a certain way. You have to be part of the giant machine, even if you aren't in the military. You don't want Military guys telling everyone to get rid of their feelings because that a step closer toward the China Borg aka Terminator Future.

he is the real MVP

[@poisonPpaully]

He’s a grifter and actually is very weak on 2a they are in damage control after throwing Kyle under the bus I’ll never drink their coffee again

[@AlexZ-lc6nl]

For me, it’s the opposite. I’m tired of the corporate BS and I decided to join as an officer because I wanna be on a train ride to success and not an unknown journey where there’s no loyalty and you could be let go at any minute. I’m done trying to apply to 30 jobs a day to get part time or whatever gigs.

[@tericlem6015]

I retired from active duty Army February 2023 from combat arms specialty. It sucks, hectic, bored, and trying to keep busy. I am able to do my seasonal positions as a Divemaster overseas with a dive center and personal trainer in the States during the winter. But it's still not the same. I've been looking to fill GS positions back in Germany and no offers. But being in the Army for 25 years and around GS positions, it's part of the good Ole Boy Club. Those positions are the ones you need to know someone, that knows that guy, that knows a guy. Even in the GS and NAF positions is cut throat and they dont give a shit you're looking for another position around the services. Bullshit!!!!!!!

[@brianbrownell689]

That's all good but we still remember how you guys called Kyle a white supremacist

[@ruru6881]

WOKE BRC .NO THANK YOU

[@robertdeffenbaugh9004]

Colorado is where you belong. It’s where all the normal people escape the crazy States. It’s also a great place for Veterans like my Mom to retire. Both my Parents were in the Army National Guard. My Brother was in the army but he got Asthma in Afghanistan. Luckily his only PTSD is the drills he sleepwalks the drills. My Sister is Air Force.

Did he just say on the open that he joined the military to be a comedian? What a bizarre thing to say.

[@mrfitness4724]

I’ve got the subscription for coffee. Love the company! Making the veteran community proud 🇺🇸

[@jkrogs1843]

Are you aware that they don’t actually support the 2A and also donate to Democrats?

[@bthegawd8113]

You love funding woke antifa supporters?

I'm a veteran, not making me proud. U got grifted

[@mrfitness4724]

[@shamblershamfam3597]

Perhaps vets have such a hard time transitioning because they act like they all walk on water and choose to surround themselves with like minded people. Stop living in an echo chamber. Thank you for your service. Do realize though.. not everyone who hasn't served isn't beneath you.

[@mr.destroyer3225]

Bro it's not even that. When people like me or the owner of black rifles in the military we have something called brotherhood, camaraderie, among other things. When we get out we don't get that anymore because of how civilian life is. It's ok that you don't understand what it's like and tbh I don't want you to understand the type of shit we had to deal with.

U were a civilian before joining the military dude. Aint that deep.

[@spooky6481]

That’s not true. You’re molded to be a different person when you’re in boot camp. You’re taught to follow orders and you get used to it. When you’re out, it’s hard to make a choice of your own because you’re no longer being told what time to wake up, where to be and what to do.

[@rayanmarianelli1371]

You got it ALL wrong, my friend!!!

[@edwinrivera5009]

You obviously have never served.

[@infini.tesimo]

Might be a little bitter but I remember vividly that they took pride in hiring veterans and prioritizing them in their hiring process. When I applied, they chose a civilian girl with zero history of the military unlike me and I have done more in the marketing space than this person. Not saying they lied but it's obvious that wasn't the case. Now I work for myself and make more than their CEO. That's how karma works I suppose 😂

[@ER-ge2xv]

Definitely wokification that's why getting out!

[@sbagwellfarms9059]

Pivot and realize your business was war and civilians will never understand that. I started a company called buyusa where we only sold USA goods and hired 75% military. The government hit these companies with compliance issues "vaccine mandates and affirmative action hires" good luck to Matt miss his old youtube shanigans
