I know that most Marine careers dont transfer easily into civilian jobs, like Infantry, Force Recon, etc. But there has to be some that are civilian related.
Thanks.
Answer
Computer related work like Computer Networking, Computer Security, etc.
In the civilian world here are just a few of the careers below that could translate to. Remember you would need a 4 year degree on top of your military experience but with those two things you could be pretty marketable.

In a small business the list above might be one or two people doing all these jobs. In a large Enterprise environment this could be hundreds of people.
How do I start a new iPad without installing iTunes or sync'ing with a PC?
Rob
I just got an iPad for free (wouldn't have bought one with all the limitations), and the screen is stuck on asking to install itunes and sync. with my computer. I do NOT want to install any iTunes or iCrap on my computer. How do I bypass this ?
Also, I don't need any updates at this point. I just want to use it right away like I didn't have another computer around.
Answer
you're out of luck. my brother-in-law works at Apple, and even at Apple they don't allow staff to talk about bugs, issues and customer complaints about the ipad. I've seen people online taking it to the apple store to activate it.
anyway, you might want to read reviews about it, and decide if it makes sense to keep it or return it. my husband got one for me a few months ago, and we returned it (with a restocking fee) because it was more like a toy for kids who never had a real computer. it is more for browsing certain sites, but not youtube or others with Flash unless you accept their "sterilized" apps from their store. I spite of great marketing hype, here are a few things that you should know about the ipad:
- you cannot print anything from it. period. not even your e-ticket confirmation. plain dumb !
- no real multitasking, even their "fix" is not a real multitasking, but good enough for the masses
- you cannot watch Flash-enabled sites. this includes numerous e-learning sites and most video and games on the Internet.
- problematic WiFi support. Apple did it again, even with their wireless access point. Don't expect to use that in a hotel with WiFi. At least 2/3 don't work with there!
- impossible to synchronize to a PC that does not have an Intel chip. good luck on that one, since you MUST at least synchronize it once, as you just noticed ! ;-)
and now the obvious that you might have overlooked:
- no camera,
- no USB ports,
- no easy way to organize a file system and transfer/copy,
- no easy way to print your files, no interaction with office productivity software (Office),
- on-screen keyboard is not practical, if you need to type a bit, use a REAL laptop
- screen resolution is 4:3 so you see movies with huge black bars,
- there is no HDMI out so you can't connect it to your new LCD,
- no SD or other card readers for your photos,
- screen is glossy so you can't read on it outdoors,
- ridiculously low storage space (even netbooks have over 200gb now)
- very fragile and slippery in your hands (one drop could kill the screen)
- much pricier than alternative tablets like Archos with way more features and openness
- you cannot change the browser for a better one. remember Apple is a closed system
- expensive data plans if you use 3G
- no support for email attachments. feels like back in the 1990's.
- to watch movies from your PC, you have to download a video converter, or buy them from iTunes
- Air Video (which enables you to watch videos you have loaded into iTunes) only works with a few routers, and notably not with any AT&T Routers at all
- no tethering to anything
- no common laptop/netboook features: security software, voice recorder, or calculator
- extraordinarily fragile device, do not drop it on your carpet, it WILL break.
- heavier than you think. You won't be able to hold it in your hand for long.
- cannot rest flat on a table or your lap, you will block the WiFi antenna behind the Apple logo and weaken your WiFi signal.
And finally, to do anything you need on the iPad, you still need to connect it regularly to a PC or a Mac. You have to connect in order to sync up your latest podcasts and media files. You need to sync to get OS updates. You need to sync in order to get your latest business documents on the iPad.
Now you can make your own informed decision about keeping that iPad or not... Good luck!
