After getting out I went to work as a contractor at NCMCI for a week until I realized that being on the other end of NMCI sucked just as much as it did in the Navy. (I was in when NMCI started.. and it was a huge pain in the ass from the beginning)

Then I got out and became a freelance website programmer which I'm still doing now. Along the way I ran a company with another Navy vet doing computer repair for awhile. But what I learned in the Navy definitely helped with programming, or troubleshooting anything really.. and being able to say I had a Top Secret/SCI clearance definitely helped on resumes

I just remembered, when I was working at NCTAMS, I was troubleshooting a circuit and had to deal with a civilian company, since a lot of the paths are interconnected.. the guy I talked recognized my last name, and said he was used to work with my dad who basically did the same thing as I was doing but for MCI. Then a few months later I was working on another trunk and actually ended up working with my dad on that circuit lol
