Early JAG years

Hi all! I just passed the bar this summer, and I have began my first assignment this past fall. I’ve been at my base about 2.5 months, and I’m feeling a bit down. I’m just not given much work. I’ve been told after I go to tech school, it’ll pickup a lot. But it’s been a bit disheartening just going and having to ask for work or just shadow after having worked so hard to pass the bar. Curious if others have had a similar experience?

Also, for people who served and then transitioned to the civilian side, how was your experience? Obviously very early for me, but as I learn more and more about how the early years will go, I worry I’m not going to develop the skills that civilian employers look for.
