Navigating the Complexities of Wi-Fi Installations

Wireless installations are often seen as an easy replacement for cables, particularly in situations where running wires or fiber optics is impractical or too costly. While wireless solutions can be convenient, even the simplest application of a wireless networking standard can come with challenges that need careful planning and troubleshooting.

Operating as a Commercial Sniper The Myths and Facts

To start with, let’s kill a central myth right off the bat. And that myth is that jobs for commercially employed snipers are widely available and accessible. That is not true. You will not do a sniper course and then be hired as a sniper in a war zone. You will not find any companies that are advertising such jobs. If they are, then I’d be dubious.

Empowering Strong Women Through Training

Talented and motivated professionals understand this and continuously train and educate themselves in current methods. They also take note of changing strategies to be most effective in their pursuit for the opportunity that will set them apart from other men, and a small number of women, in the industry.

Workplace Discrimination

I walked into, no, I barged into a profession that has historically been male dominated and I did this at the highest level of law enforcement, as a United States Secret Service Agent. I did this by choice. I expected there to be doubters, critics, chauvinists, and jackasses alike. And, there were. There were also men who were tremendous supporters, authentic cheerleaders, and firm believers that female agents were not only necessary in the Service, they we are more than capable of doing the job.
