I watched part of this documentary about how second-hand clothes from the US end up in Africa. Apparently the Salvation Army doesn’t even unpack most of their clothing donations, they SELL them to dealers in Africa who mark them up 400%. This industry has put almost all of the domestic clothing manufacturing out of business and a lot of people who had those skills are out of jobs, many of them gone from hand-making traditional clothing to selling second-hand US clothes at markets. Would people still donate to the Salvation Army if they knew what they were really doing?
Not to mention the whole “we don’t hire gays” policy but that’s another story …

So I am only 20 years old now with very little college education. I am in the US Army and am currently in Afghanistan. I strongly want to go back to school after I get out of the Army and finish up my degree in Sociology or Psychology. I wanted to work with the FBI, but I don’t see that happening with today’s job market.
So after the Army this is what my resume will look like:
-3 years active duty service in the US Army(1 deployment to Afghanistan)
-SECRET clearance from the US Army good for 10 years as of June 2009
-Fluent in English and Bengali. Also speak French, but not fluently
-Bachelor’s degree in Psychology(or Sociology)
I just want a job where I’ll be able to support myself(be able to afford an apartment, utilities, have enough to eat, gasoline, etc). Do you see me being able to get a job anywhere in the the northeastern United States with these stats? And should I major in Sociology or Psychology? Which would open more doors for me in terms of getting a job that pays enough?
Thanks!

I am an AGR Recruiter, and would like to affiliate myself with the Infantry unit I served with durring my Active Duty time. Is this still possible although my current PMOS is not 11B anymore? If so, how would I fill out my 4187? and would i need any supporting documentation? Please someone square me away as I have no real knowledgeable NCO’s to guide me in these matters
