DCO was a risk...I was looking to further my career...expand my skill set... it did not pay much...the hours were short...and the shift rotated to make things worse...but the position would make me look good if I could do at least six months...I did exactly 6 months...I lost money on the venture...got no sleep...and it could be considered the only legitimate termination of my career/without my consideration...But I learned as much as I could...I think I impressed the supervisor on occasion...and picked up the stripes I needed...I guess what I liked was the fact that they didn't expect me to last that long...in Texas an opportunity is not always what it seems...sometimes they don't expect you to get it...they just put it there... Quick note: When they call your previous employers and ask about you...how do you make the difference?...In the interview... ...if you were incompetent you would not know how things worked...if you were lazy you would not put in so many hours...don't expect to know everything in a short term...and IMPORTANTLY, discrimination does exist... sign misunderstood...
