Directed production efforts of 66 personel, employing 16 computerized communications systems valued at over $17 million to satisfy U.S. Pacific Command and national requirements. Managed unit's communications systems accumulation, processing, and transcription effort to satisfy Kunia Regional Security Operations Center (KRSOC) objectives.
• Established workloads, monitored mission activity, and implemented mission adjustments to enhance productivity.
• Ensured adherence to operating instructions governing acquisition, recording, and forwarding of voice communications.
• Performed spot and in-depth analysis to satisfy time-sensitive reporting requirements.
• Analyzed work centers' production statistics to detect trends and appraise performance.
• Developed and monitored training programs to meet position qualification and manning requirements.

About what I do now? In your dreams.
As long as you're sure then it makes it true.

Since you were the best why aren't you still there?

Truth is you didn't do shit, and a Specialist acting as a team leader has more responsibility and implications to his job than you did. All the while he is getting paid jack shit.

You can keep using all the COLA and bonus pays and make people sound like they get promoted every six months, since you are bitter you couldn't hack it somehow.
