I’ll take it

Veteran hiring events are beyond worthless

I checked out a “Virtual Networking Event” for military and veterans the other day. I already knew these things were beyond worthless, but I guess I needed a reminder.

At these virtual events a bunch of companies pay money to the company hosting it and then get to pitch to the sad bastards in attendance that their companies exist.

The talent people from these companies will that dutifully tell you to email them or to apply on the website.

These events provide nothing of value except to allow the same two dozen companies to appear to care about hiring veterans. It’s about optics and data farming.

Skip these.

And, as always, we want to get more companies added to the Friendlies List to best service the Reservist community.

Good or bad, reach out and let us know your company’s policy. If it’s good—we want to add them to our list. If it’s bad, we want to partner and help them—and you.

Reach out to [email protected] to submit.

Did we just become best friends?

The Fratty Guard Updates

Laxing a Difference for Veteran VCs

As a SOF veteran, VC, and 4 Time Tewaaraton Award winner, I was shocked and disgusted by the lack of resources out there for veterans in Venture Capital.

So I did something about it.

Vets2VC supports needy and underprivileged veteran VCs and landlords.

At Chadwick Capital, we believe they are the best of us, and they must be protected and funded at all costs.

Last week’s inaugural Chadwick Capital Special Operations Charity Lacrosse Classic during SOF Week was a resounding success, even if we can’t talk about it because it doesn’t officially exist, per government guidance.

You can still support this most noble of causes by purchasing an event tee shirt.

This is a high ROI shirt that makes a statement. It screams the following:

1) you’re fuckin SOF
2) you’re a fuckin VC
3) you fuckin Lax
4) you’re charitable as fuck

Together, we will Lax a Difference for veteran VCs and landlords who are the backbone of this country.

All proceeds will go towards CPT Chadwick’s shell company.

Cop this shirt for a LIMITED TIME on The Fratty Guard Store.

If you support the work that Friendly Forces does, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help keep the lights on. Every bit helps. Turns out stuff is expensive and we put countless man hours into the work.

That’s all for now. BIG THINGS COMING.
