So you are saying that provided housing and meals has no value?

It reminds me of the "teachers are underpaid" falsehood, but for different reasons.


Jesus Christ man….do you really want to try and argue that the military is “highly paid”. Really?

I don't understand how that happened unless it was tactical speed job. Normally for controlled stuff they're really, really careful about everybody being out of harm's way before detonation.


If someone was killed performing a controlled detonation, it is because the explosive was not stable or the “downed drone” was still weaponized. Do mistakes happen…sure, but who knows what happened here. I’m pretty sure it isn’t like most people are thinking and the guy didn’t use a long enough fuse or take proper cover. Something probably malfunctioned.

The military is not some organization where you just hang around for a time and get paid and money for college/university.

There is risk associated with it, which is why it is highly paid.


So…you weren’t in the military I see. It is the opposite of “highly paid”. LOL
So nothing gets done and more money is pissed away…lining some connected person’s pockets. Typical. frick all politicians.
It’s like the world is waking up….at least a little.
Someone has taught these guys how to properly engage a vehicle moving toward them. They seem to be proficient.

Ukraine's wartime government is getting another shake-up after Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko stepped down Sunday, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy saying he has offered her a "new, important" role as he reshapes his administration during the ongoing war with Russia.


quote:

Zelenskyy, who has remained in office under martial law because wartime elections are prohibited, framed the move as part of a broader shift in Ukraine's governing strategy.

"Ukraine is changing its political strategy," Zelenskyy wrote in a social media post, adding that he had offered Svyrydenko the chance to lead "a new, important area" in Ukraine's relations with a key international partner.

The Ukrainian president said each major area of foreign policy would be assigned to an experienced official responsible for carrying out agreements reached with foreign leaders and advancing the interests of the Ukrainian people. He also announced planned changes to the country's top law enforcement leadership, though he did not immediately provide additional details.

I can’t be the only one getting strong hitler vibes from all of this.

Damn dude. That sucks

As soon as you mentioned the name of the employer in this thread you likely opened yourself up to legal action by them. What you’re describing sounds pretty damning but I’ve worked with employment lawyers multiple times in the past and if I’ve learned anything, it’s that there always seems to be things that appear pretty illegal that an employer can technically get away with so maybe there’s more to it than what your eye sees. I’m not going to quote the employer’s name, but if I were you, I’d go back and edit it out of your post. Just to be safe.


We don’t, collectively, hate lawyers enough.
What we did in the Balkans was wrong. I was over there in 96, 97, 98, and 00. The whole thing bothers me to think back on. My issue with everything after 01 is we fought with both arms and a leg tied behind our backs most of the time. Losing friends/brothers during that time then witnessing the withdraw after I retired makes me sick to my stomach also. Their lives were sacrificed for nothing. Outside of a few moments, what did we accomplish? Is what it is, I guess. I’m glad my son has no interest in serving.
So he acknowledged that the law is broken as written…and knows as well as anyone that congress is also broken, but declined to vote differently. He had an opportunity fix a major wrong…for the obvious good of the country and future generations, but failed to do so. frick him.

Such a joke that we call them “undocumented” but yet they are somehow registered with selective service. Our immigration laws are a freaking joke. The true purpose of the left’s obsession with open borders couldn’t be more obvious.
shite…sign me back up for a ground invasion. We owe those fricks an arse kicking
