No, its not.
They picked up military vets because they understand the nature of communicating and effecting mission needs when they are performed under difficult circumstances.
No one active duty yells at people like a drill sergeant outside of a training environment, except marines bc rah
- MRD85 8y agoAnecdotally, I've been in the Army close to 10 years now and I cannot recall the last time I heard yelling in a non-jovial or non-combat manner. I've also had multiple experiences where people were stunned after I how I reacted in difficult circumstances. I can definitely see how certain employers would value these traits.

- MRD85 8y agoI see people have downvoted your comment but I sort of agree with the sentiment. I grew up in a rural town to working-class parents who hated me spending time on computers and wanted me to get a trade. I'm now 33 and halfway to my CS degree that I should have finished 12 years ago. The Army has been good to me but it's not the life I should have lived. Even growing up rurally was hard. I was a very intellectual child and rural areas aren't the best environment for that i.e. family that actively squashes your interest as opposed to encouraging it.
