^^^ this dude wants people to leave the marine corp after they put in 20 years and go to work in the drivethru at McDonald's...

You mean like the rest of us ? Ohnoes, work!

k bro

When did the military become such a sacred job where you not only are immune to all criticism, but also don't have to work afterward?

I agree with this, but also somehow agree with the sentiment of wiper's post.

Today's what now? What is 'newspaper'?

Clearly this man has never seen the released straight to dvd film "Time-shark" starring Wesley Snipes and Guy Pierce. Its about this exact subject.

Since when did bitch ass internet hipsters get off on pissing on the flag and ****ting on our veterans?

His comment didn't do either?

How was his comment/question "pissing on the flag"?

You seem upset Jerry. Deep breaths.

rakeme supporting the troops so ****ing hard with that post.

the answer is probably around the end of 2003. and WHERE IS YOUR FLAG PIN I CANT SEE YOUR FLAG PIN

You obv have a reading disorder so I will help you, like I was trying to help that vet. I essentially said stop being lazy and looking for handouts. There are several job opportunities but that would involve applying one's self.

There is no shame to taking an in between job if you have bills to pay. The "perfect" job doesn't fall into anyone's lap... you have to aggressively go get it. This is similar to poker in that if you don't continue to apply yourself, study, etc you will become withered.

Finally, it would be completely up to THAT individual service member what they would want to do after completing one career (that many internet warriors wouldn't be fit to serve). A service member with 20yrs + 50% disability will earn close to $3000 per month for retirement. If they want to go fishing and play poker for life... cool! If they choose to actively seek a 2nd career... also fine.

Hopefully this interwebz warrior Wiper will use the couple of brain cells, read thoroughly, and understand that McDonalds is not the only option I was offering.

Please quote the part where the vet was being lazy and looking for handouts

Yeah, she was looking for a loan, not a handout.

Im first on board to loan and match/beat all offers for said Vet. But I would want some additional proof that I will get paid back.

1) Non altered copy of DD214
2) Most recent pay statements
3) Copy of photo ID
4) Explain reason for loan
5) Signed contract for loan amount

If the "vet" can provide this I will do a reasonable loan.

You realise that actually offering loans is going to get this thread shut down, right?

Pretty sure she's gone anyways. But 3 and 4 are already ITT

Thanks man, yeah 2003 sounds about right. God damn internet hipsters.

lol

Hahaha... if this whole thing was legit, it would have been dealt with differently. I was making a point that I am not here to dog vets (I am one myself) but to offer ideas/alternatives.

But obviously the person seeking a loan shark wouldn't be willing to provide those items that would be basically needed. Therefore this was never in jeopardy of becoming reality.

Solid thread through and through tho

OP come back

Sounds legit.

Say goodnight, Courtney.

I love how she says she found this guy after being scammed by OTHER fake loan companies. If this company was legit, shouldn't she say she found them after being scammed by fake loan companies. Use of the word other implies the company she found is also a scam.

Any relation?

To Carmen?
