I've had jobs where I'm not able to talk about specifics but they're still plenty of good stories you can tell.

I was in the Air Force with a secret clearance, working on radar systems. There's some stuff i can't talk about for legal reasons, then there's stuff i don't talk about because it would make me look dumb. Like that time i worked on the circuit breaker panel without cutting input power. Or that time we forgot to open the vents before powering up the thing.
