Military here. I went through the whole religious waiver (and denial) process and was days away from disciplinary paperwork before the court injunction came in. I've deployed to Afghanistan and have numerous TDYs under my belt (temporary travel for civilians out there, measured in days or weeks).
I'm proud to say I'll be voluntarily separating at the end of this enlistment before my 20 years is up, after being both an asset to my coworkers and a massive pain in the ass to those above me.
