My biggest mistake is finding GLP. Biggest waste of time, yet can't stop coming back every week.

Re: What Was Your One Big Mistake In Life?
getting a bullshit nearly worthless business degree in college instead of trying harder for something like engineering. i wish someone would have explained to me just how much more an engineering degree is worth over the course of my life than business management degree.

if you're a young college punk reading this, learn from my mistake.
 Quoting: 508527


Exactly the same mistake here. Business management degree is fine if all you want to do is manage in retail. Otherwise, think again or supplement with another degree.

Also...I regret that first cigarette.

Re: What Was Your One Big Mistake In Life?
One mistake? Choosing to go to my permanent duty station in Europe in 1990 rather than staying with 2nd Armored Training Brigade like the LTC asked me to after training was over. I was pretty high speed then, and the light colonel took a liking to me. He wanted me to stay on with the unit after OSUT was over.

This one statement, "Sir, thank you for the opportunity, but I would prefer to go to Germany." changed the whole course of my life.

If I had stayed at Ft Knox, there is a possibility I would have stayed in and be retired 3 years ago. If I had stayed I would not have gone to Desert Storm. If I had stayed I would not have been subjected to serin nerve gas fallout, pyrostigmine bromide, and lungsful of burning hydrocarbons.

I would not have gotten shot at. I would not have PTSD. I would not be a killer.

When I look back at my life, that day in the colonel's office of 2/13 Armor, as an 18 year old Army private, is the day I can safely pinpoint as affecting the rest of my life.
 Quoting: TheBiss


I made a similar choice in the military. Worked for the CINC of Korea(Gen Gary Luck) and was then given the option to work for the Commander of 7th Special Forces Group as they were friends.

Chose not to do it and the rest as they say is history.

Every mistake I have made is part of me. I try to remember them all. if I remember the mistakes I will remember the trouble that came from them.

Never forget your history or you are bound to repeat it.

I don't have to tell the mistakes I have made, just knowing that I remember them, is enough for you to know.

I made a promise to God...never...ever...ever do that. It ruined my life.

Also, never, ever ignore your gut. If it says leave...LEAVE!

Re: What Was Your One Big Mistake In Life?
I married a smokin hot woman, smart, and loving. Then divorced her because I thought she was cheating on me. Because she told me she was. Then find out later she lied to test me. Well we got divorced before I found that out.

Getting divorced was a Big mistake for me. I think. Who Knows.
You?

Please don't feel that way. Your Dad would not want you to.

Of course you were upset. I am a heavy smoker and know it stresses my children. You - like them - are not to blame in any way.

He would have been short with you if you had had a drug problem that you could have dies from - and then did.

You having nothing to feel guilty about. Neither does he. We all need to use whatever helps us get through life. No one lives forever - smoke or not.

Go a bit easier on yourself. Your Dad would have been the same to you if reversed. But you know that already.

I bet he was proud of you! I sure would be if you were mine.
