The idea that the military is overcompensated is just insane.
Don't forget, this doesn't apply to the threadstater. He was Air Force. I bet if he was Infantry(Army or Marines) he wouldn't be saying shit about being "overcompensated".

For the amount of hours I worked; if I was paid minimum wage, I would have made 4-5 times what my salary was. Not including overtime.
