when I switched careers from the navy into Digital commercial ad operations, I had it hard. If I hadn't been lucky to have a manager who wound up becoming my mentor, I would've failed at that job. I don't know that people, at least in my experience in America, are readily able to ask for help, and I think it's a cultural thing.

That mentor and I still hang out to this day, but we're only friends now, as her mission was deemed complete some time ago.
