Hey /sci/ , I am currently waiting on my TS/SCI security clearance for my first job out of college! I had just completed my EIT certification thinking by the time i finished it my clearance would be in. That was a month ago. And my boss has essentially told me that it should be in this or next week, which puts my start date at a month and a half from now.

I'm just wondering what should i do during this time ? Like i'm probably going to have to work some bullshit job, but i want to stay intellectually stimulated. The wait is so fucking unbearable, seeing all my friends get jobs and do absolutely nothing.

I took this job because it was a once in a lifetime opportunity but the clearance is fucking me , guys.


Tl;DR - what can i do to keep my mind busy ? Watching YouTube lectures just isn't the same and i feel as if i'm mentally regressing.
