Why do certain professions deserve praise?

Wrong board.

Why does an a-hole get to ask a question?

people go into the military because they feel it’s a good decision for them personally,

This may be the case for a small percentage, but i'd imagine most people go in for the want to serve their country. To not acknowledge that deed makes you a POS in my eyes.

And good day to you to good sir.

Wait until you have a dread disease or a disabling injury and a DR treats you and gives you your life back.
I bet you will feel differently.
I had back surgery thirty years ago.
Thank you Dr Sanders.

While this is most definitely the wrong board, and I certainly would never post what you did, I can't say you're 100% wrong either.

I have served 17 years (so far) in the military and I have no particular need for your praise, nor do I claim any moral superiority. However, on whether military members have other options for employment in executive positions, you are wrong on two counts.

First, some like myself were fortunate enough to have a college education prior to entering service and quite a few obtain a masters along the way. Had I elected to go the commercial route, I have no doubt I would have had other options.

I assume by your comment though that you are talking about the enlisted service members. Admittedly, most do not enter with a degree. They join for a thousand individual reasons, but recognize that they also had other options. Even if they are placed in a non-combat role, most are still subject to long hours, forced cross-country moves, and if you stay in long enough, multiple deployments. Yes, they receive solid pay, good medical benefits, and the Post-9/11 GI Bill, but there are easier ways to get a future education. After separating, many go on to leverage that GI Bill into very successful second careers.

Bottom line, you don’t need to praise anyone because they don’t need you to in order for them to be proud of what they do. You should however simply keep your opinion of their potential to yourself, because it’s a terrible take.

There's nothing wrong with recognizing and telling someone "Thanks" who have ended up being exposed or more susceptible to the Virus because of the job they do on a daily basis...it does'nt matter if they work in health care..law enforcement...a cashier in the grocery...whatever they do....They're out there for their families and livelihood...whenever whatever they do....nobody chose where we're at today....goofball....
