Hey Danny, I really appreciate that. The Job hunt has been successful and I start the new job a couple days after this one is officially over! As to the KZread thing, I'm very grateful for your sentiment, a sentiment that seems to be shared by a lot of the folks commenting here. You guys are what make this KZread venture rewarding and its not so much that I feel obligated to put out videos and answer comments, but I get a lot of joy from the two way conversation that comes out of the videos and subsequent comments. I've learned a lot from people through this medium. Thanks for the comment, Danny. Take care.

Our old Army motto remains the best: Mission First-People Always, Zack. Thank you for the service you and your family have given. My late husband and I both were over 26 years. He died on AD following Gulf War, I ETS'd to finish service in USAR to stabilize youngest son for his last 3 Hi. Sch'l. yrs. Oldest son is over 21 yrs. and still serving. I've been out 12 yrs. and still miss putting on the uniform, but not getting up at 0310Hrs. Take care of business and family; we will be here when you have time and desire to reconnect. Hooah!

Thank you CJ, and thank you for your family's service, it's an amazing legacy.

Atta boy brother, twenty is a LONG time in military, very hard on a person. Injoy ur retirement, U earned every bit of it I really enjoyed the videos on restoration of hand saw. Thank you

Thank you for your service Sir! It is GREATLY appreciated. Lord bless you and your family.

You are an inspiration, when a person loves the military it is a very hard thing to leave and transition into some new thing. I was privileged to serve as a Chaplain for 24 years in three components of the Army, Reserves, Active and Guard... but beyond that i have been privileged to work for the past 9 years with transitioning Veterans. If you ever need help send me a note. There is a band of comrades ready to assist all across the county. We all bleed red, so even Marines need help once in a while, but in reality they probably help all Veterans more than any other branch. Blessings

God bless you and your family. Thank you for your service.

Sorry about your loss and other stuff, but it does seem like you have an adventure ahead of you with family!!Sounds like life is going forward and I hope you enjoy the ride.

Thank you for your service. Just finished watching your shed build, awesome job.

I just came across your site and enjoyed your 500 dollar shed . It is nice to come across really good people here. Thank you and keep sharing your experiences. Bill

20 yrs active! Congratulations on finishing your career in the military, first saw your videos on a 500 dollar shed and picked up a scent of military coming from you and saw the quanson hut looking shed and that confirmed my suspicion and now you say your retiring, please note the v.a hospitals are nothing even close to the care you get now so if you need anything done do it before you retire, i did 6 yrs from 79-85 and a day dont go by I regret I did not stay in and retire at 36 or do 30 yrs and retire at 46 but I hauled mail for post office as a contract postal employee for 30 yrs zero pension but worked a hundred hours every week in truck, so congrats on an excellant job well done your still a young healthy guy so you are very blessed just subbed, some of my best memories are from the military back in the late 70s and early 80s can't never go back.

Dealing with the death of family, I also have that in common with you as you lost a good friend. Keep the faith, always look forward and keep making vids when you can. I am now a watcher.

Thank you for your service Zack, enjoyed the video's, great job, take your time, no hurry, oh, you tube helps people how to and what to expect from employers on how to , and what to wear, to how to fill out a resume and so on, i would like to think most of us will still be here when ever your ready sir, take care, and god bless you and your family,,, merry Christmas and happy new year,,,

Vulnerable. Relate-able. Something that all of us can connect and identify with. Although this video may have felt a little bit like a "tail between the legs" video, I think it was the one that just launched your channel. There is not a dude watching your channel that can't relate with this. Thanks for your service. Thanks for your honesty, and thanks for letting us into your life. Don't give up on this KZread thing. There is something about you that draws people back to you. I see a very successful future for you here. Please keep bringing us your content!

Hi Zack, you are now entering a new career in your life with plenty of challenges ahead of you.

I'm one of the friends from down under in Australia good luck and God bless.

I know what you mean with the spinning plates, have had to clear the table a number of times myself, so you just get everything in order, take all the time you need. sounds like you have major changes happening, so all the best with the job hunt - settling in.

Good luck to you, Zack. I'm looking for work right now too and finding the market to be exceptionally strong (I've had a few good interviews and I'm expecting an offer soon). I'm sure you'll be able to find something soon too. As far as interview tips, always draw from your experience with specific examples when answering questions and try to keep things brief. Employers want to know more about how you handle yourself than they do about how you would handle their specific job. They can teach you the job, but they can't teach you to be a problem solver or a team player or whatever they're looking for. There are lists of common interview questions that you can review so you can start to think about some of your answers or at least good situations that you can draw from (maybe your experiences tech school would be good to draw from? Maybe you really had some tough situations on a deployment where you think you really grew? etc..). Common questions I'm almost always asked are "Tell me about a time when you overcame a difficult situation" and "Tell me about a time when you had to work with someone you didn't like". Employers will ask you straight forward questions about your skills, but it's the personality questions that are going to require some thought and good responses. With a military career as long as yours I'm positive you've got plenty of excellent experience to look back on and pull from if you can spend a little time thinking about specific examples. I've worked with lots of former military guys that had very good careers after retiring so you do have a lot of value to private employers even if you're unfamiliar with that process. It's also a good idea to ask them questions about their business to show that you're engaged and interested in the job. I almost always ask why the position is open (are older employees retiring? Are they expanding? Do they just need different skills?), what the history of the company is (if they didn't already tell you), what has the career path of others in that position been like (promoted? stay put? do they quit after a few years?) and finally I ask them what they thought of the interview shortly before I'm about to leave. Most employers will just smile and tell you everything was great, but a handful will give you valuable feedback and if you don't take the gamble of asking them you'll never hear it. Once again, good luck! Thanks for your service!

God bless America :) Your building project is really cool. We hope to see more in the future. We bought some land suited to camping and can't afford to go all out cabin yet. This looks like a do-able shelter while saving for it. A surprising amount of retired military and law enforcement go to driving school bus. Opportunity for various management positions open up. Safety Supervisor is a fun one. Look for a large national or international company for most job diversity. I found the mom and pop family owned transportation companies to be on the angry and hostile side as well as stingy. Perhaps your neck of the woods is different.

Thank you Andrew, I'll make sure to keep adventures posted here :)

Hey Zack, Please do yourself a favor and forget about youtube for the next 6 weeks, and just get on with the important things in your life. I have said to you once before that I think you are the nicest guy in woodworking youtube land, and no doubt you are that way in real life. I would like to say that you owe us nothing but for the real people in your life, family friends and work, you maybe owe them all your attention. Once things are all good, have another go. My suggestion to you if you feel you need to do videos, why not just a weekly 5 min Vlog, DiResta style. Just an update, a bit of footage and we all get to spend time with you. Thanks Zac, all the best mate.

Max, you're very kind and I appreciate your words very much. I like the suggestion of a DiResta-esque vlog, something to keep engaged yet not the full-on production required of the more elaborate stuff. I believe I'll look into that. Truly, thank you Max

Thank-you for serving our nation, I hope that in the end you are blessed for your sacrifice!

Thank you for your service sir.

Thank you Justin, it truly has been my pleasure!

God bless love your style. I'll be eagerly

First thanks for your service. First I have lost most of my friends in the last 10 to 15 years, but it makes it easier for me knowing that they are in paradise. To be absent of the flesh is to be present with our HEAVENLY FATHER. I just found your channel and was impressed with your corner stone comment on the arched shed video. Hang in there, GOD is in control. And if you can I would love to see more videos from you, but if not, as a fellow vet, I have your 6, in my prayers.

Thank you very much, my friend, I'm sorry for your loss of companionship and am encouraged by your outlook. I'm glad to have you here. There'll certainly be more videos to come, as I'm feeling pretty settled in my new routine and the creative videography process is coming back quite a bit. Thank you for your service.

One foot in front of the other. Keep moving forward. Normal is only a setting on your dryer.

Thanks for your service keep up the great work

Just discovered your site and want to welcome you to the civilian world. I retired in '94 after 23 years service and now ready for social security. Good luck. Thanks for your service and sticking with it.
