My boy's in the WV air national guard. He's 25 ( been in for 5 years) and does ok for himself. He only does the one weekend a month crap and occasionally goes on short deployments for extra $. Hasn't had a "real" job in about 1.5 years and rocks a Audi TT pushin 22lbs of boost .....just texted me this morning, he bought coilovers and a bunch more 'ish last night.

Military is a good deal if you get in early....

Yeah right. Tell that to all the guys on the Stop-Loss program doing their 6-7th tours in the dessert.

Shouldn't it be the other way around? You guys should congratulate me by treating me lunch or dinner! And how about I personally treat you 2 scoops of ice-cream?

I know right? Like who does that? They said they looked up their own employees at that level that are doing the similar tasks and figured out what I asked for is lower than that average.
