You know I felt the urge to really lace you for this self absorbed, rub my **** its hurting of a bitch fest you are having, hesitated (it is xmas), and then I read this.

At least those meat sheilds are doing something, taking a risk, putting it out there. Just look at you with all your so called talents. You have a useless degree and a family that hates you and thinks that you are such a loser that they are leaving video tapes on their death beads. You are in such a panic about it you are losing your mind in front of 100's of SD'er, all of whom are just watching you unwind like a 100 person car wreck.

To think your granny could have been leaving her memoirs but instead in her dying breaths she was saying "lub dont be such a loser" to a cam corder.

Please take her advice you moron - I miss brat, and feeling sorry for you gets hard when say such stupid shit.

I got it you really are an Air Force recruiter.

Kids reading this, what he tells you isn't true.

Way to totally avoid the question I raised - high school kids dont know much about anything, the military does more direct HR adverts than anyone - none point

And I have the satisfaction of knowing that I rate some respect in an international brotherhood (any military, any country) based on the fact that I have proved something that didn't involve a #2 pencil.


Pussy.

#2 pencil. LMAO!

According to the form, we were all farting through silk, which was of course a joke, and hence led to the annual carnival of derision we heaped on it.

Quoted for the truth. When I got out as an E-4, the "pay compensation paper" said I needed to make $38k to equal the standard of living I had in the chairforce. When I got out, I started out at $23k, and I actually had a nicer place to live, better food, and money in the bank, which was something I never had in the chairforce.

My degress may seem a little lame to me, but making 6 figures isn't worthless to most people. I have a useful skill, I just want more to compliment it. That's what I'm working at now.

My grandmother left a lot for me. A 3 hour personal tape and 8 hours of tapes for us to listen to together. She was very proud of everything I have done, she was only worried about me because she knew I was incredibly unhappy with what I was doing. She was always my biggest fan.

I am successful by every definition of the word, just not to the degree of my liking. Go ahead, call me a loser for striving to better myself. I don't care, because I think I am better than most people that post here. I have the type of life you all covet.

Wow you just crashed another car into that wreck

Do you realize how ironic you are?

You start "don't hate the rich threads" and then start an "its not fair the meat shields make more than me thread"

You talk about high school kids, so ignorent for not rushing into one of the most advertised jobs out there, while you have joined thousands of under employed over educated students, who are there out of sure ignorence.

You say you think you are better than most of the people here and a live a life we covet, when you can't even make a 6 figures salary in the land of the plenty coming from a wealthy family. If you knew how many people with a six figure salary have lauged them selves out of their chairs reading this shit, you would sleep right through Christmas. Man I sure hope granny left more than a video, because if this keeps up, all the meds in the world are not going keep you from eating cat food out of a metal can.

Ok, I am over the meat shield comment, on a straight note - I have a cousin, his family (not my side) is one side step from American Royalty and his mother's family financial situation/status reflects that. He is a struggling engineer, nothing wrong with that, it happens. Try dealing with it better, its the tough times that test us make us stronger.

Mery Xmas.
