"I’m 39. I started down an entirely new career path in mid-January. I’ve had horrible imposter syndrome since day 1 but the new job feels good. My boss (who happens to be a woman) sent me the nicest most complimentary email thanking me for being such a good addition to the team and I sincerely cried because in all my years in the workforce nobody has ever appreciated me so much. \
I imagine to her it was just one of those things a good boss does – “Hey, my employee did a good job, I should tell them!” I sent it to my dad when he asked me how the new job was going. Even HE cried out of pride. Men don’t get compliments, and when we do, we really feel it."

#16 I can definitely relate. I served with many good Marines during my 20 yrs. K.illed with them, bled with them, carried wounded comrades with them and scrounged up bits of that were left. Birthday? Name of Kids? Birthplace? No. Marine? Yes. 0311? Yes. 0326? Yes.

Not seeing a friend for years doesn't mean we we're fighting.
Seeing someone after 5 years and literally picking up where we left off.

Another Horiscope style dump about gender... I read very carefully to see if these apply to my reality... and no, as a female, nothing here applies. Maybe because I'm not small, frail, and grew up with three brothers, but every female "surprise" is propaganda based.
