WOAH WOAH WOAH
national min is 7.50! mcdonalds has health benefits too if you stay a year. you know what though, I was making 2-3 times as much as i do now before the military. +i had health insurance and everything. I joined because i wanted to do something with my life i could be proud of. I almost dropped out of high school, i dropped out of college once (back in now) I had gotten lucky with a good paying job, but i wasnt happy, I hadnt done anything in my life that i could say i did with pride. thats the reason i joined, not to listen to country songs, not to follow blindlessly. I am sorry you signed up to pay bills and got suckered into something you arnt ready for. but i stand by my earlier statement. You shouldn't have signed up if your wernt ready for it. |

Incorrect each state can set its on minimum wage based off of cost of living which a lot of states do but there is also a federal minimum wage and that is only at 4 dollars or close to it. So some places aren't as lucky and people that work there can barely make a living. I feal it as a good thing we got him but a lot of you guys seem to be just blindly following what the media tells you instead of thinking of the very likely possibility that the govt. Lies to you on a day to day basis, and I could really hope that he is dead doesn't matter to much to me if he died this week or five years ago, he has only been a reason for our govt to go into other countries and get our money, the country in whole has a lot more to worry about than that bastard or other countries wars we need to look at home for a change.

Essentially, federal has a certain amount... the state can mandate a higher amount than the federal.
But anywho...

You have to except and understand that people don't have to have the same mindset as the GP. I for one like to think that I have my own beliefs and somewhat original thoughts. I joined knowing that I could be deployed at the drop of a hat. I was not forced to go and I understood that prior and after wards. My original contract is up, I chose to stay. But not for someone Else's war. Now to say that the military does not creatively tell the truth(especially retention) or hand out pipe dreams... Than you are blind... I was not told that I would deploy for 24+ months in 3 years and be on my 3rd deployment before I hit 5years of service. I was not told about alot of things about the army and how it works. Career progression mainly... But I am not bitter about that. I am bitter about the relationship it ruined, and lack of time I get to see my family especially my daughter. Not to mention the current one that is being tested by my lack of time I get at home. But this is not about a personal grudge or feel of mistreatment. To show you how the gov. hides things. We were at a live fire exercise and started a rather "large" wild fire. So bad that the state Governor got involved. The news later said it was due to a lightning strike. There was no damn lightning involved. They just did not want any bad press for the military. Now I do not try to convince others of my beliefs or theories. It is for their selves to figure out what they wish to believe. But to not question what we are told or led to believe is idiotic.

A fool I would be if I ate every thing up.
I know there are plenty of cover ups. This however, would be a particularly large one. Historically large, and un-realistic at that. I couldnt read your original account and straight faced accept that as the way it is... simply because the amount of secrecy and work involved in a lie that massive would be rediculous. Like I said, you were baited into the military. I understand that. I know the military's recruiting tactics... and I know the gold brick road they will pretend to lay out in front of you to get you to join. I'm not blind to that. What I couldn't agree with is what came off as your command for respect citing circumstances that were not (until your last post) even hinted as being your decision. Actually, had your original post been along the lines of your most recent post... no body would have probably even entered in this dick swinging contest in the first place. No matter how big (or small?) they are.

I intended to argue a bit...
Everyone was so against Obama until a few days ago. Now they simply praise him blindly. Shit is not right, thats all. This is just like kicking a wasp nest. But hey, its time to hop on the bandwagon... and just because it seems unlikely that our gov. would lie on such a large scale, does not mean it did not happen.

IDK if it'll help him get re-elected.
It's a good thing, no question, but I don't think it'll be enough if the economy isn't recovering quick enough. What would help is if he pulls out of Afghanistan & all wars by the end of the year (doubt it will happen). |

I never claimed to be a bible thumper.
As a matter of fact, I despise organized religion. I think you can have whatever beliefs you want, but associating with others in an organized religion can be dangerous. Especially since almost every (major) religion has their own clause in order to try to "convert" others. That is like handing knives to a bunch of blind kids and letting them stumble around in a ring. Also, if you read above.. I don't personally praise Obama. Obama certainly gave the OK to get him... but you can't really tell me that Bush would not have also given the OK to kill that guy. Signing your name on an authorization form hardly constitutes the entire thing being your work. That being said... team 6 (which I confirmed through my own sources thankyouverymuch) did very well.

They also had some guys making per diem ($50 bucks a day) and IIRC per diem in Gemany was even higher ($115 a day I think). I am now considered a veteran in my state so I don't have to pay tuition. On top of that I have an associates degree through the CCAF which is transferable to alot of colleges. Oh and I qualify for the Post 9/11 GI bill now. I'm just another mechanic in the USAFR. |

I say we should all put together and hire a bunch of midgets to dress up and sing "Ding dong, Bin Ladens dead" while doing the lolly pop guild dance. Put that on youtube, and recieve money from advertising.
This will fund our car parts.

I feel for that girl in the clear brook high situation. Thats some messed up stuff to hear. Some people just don't think before they speak. At all.
