Not true. Either you are in the wrong trade, or not looking hard enough.
Argue all you like - you usually complain that black is actually white. Just in case you didn't know, there is a recession on. Yes, there are jobs out there and some people are doing very well. However, across the Armed Forces as a whole, there is a slow down on people leaving at option points / before retirement - this is put down to the uncertainty of the civilian workplace and reduced recruitment elsewhere.
People are not leaving because there is less to go to, so promotion also gets hit. I didn't say there were no jobs - I said there were less
