    Difference is I don't give a rat's ass about the details of your compensation, or feel any need to crow about the details of mine.

      I'll listen to your benefits union boy

        Not nearly enough my friend. If I have never said it bud, thank you for your service and personal sacrifices you have made for our country. It is appreciated by many here, including myself. Those that do not know the military code will never understand, no matter how much you try.

          And me, reading the articles about Frost really put it into perspective. Some people will never understand the brotherhood.

              Edited to remove boring dick measuring

              So FT, how do you measure up? And don't you owe someone a grand for not showing your paycheck against theirs?

                You paid me to do a job and I did it. I'd have done it for free (and pretty much did if you look at hours vs pay) but I'm honored to have served the Republic and her people. I still try to do my part in DC and the state legislature.

                  Your turn FT. I posted up some of my benefits. No unions. What do you have? My cards are on the table. I also forgot to mention every dime is tax free, I have 100% covered dental and medical and psych care, most businesses offer military discounts and I get automatic veteran's hiring preference on state and federal jobs AND then you add the purple heart preference. I also get free plane trips, space available. I also get curb side assistance from the TSA. They pick up my bags from my car, walk me and check my gear in, walk me to the front of the line at the security station, run me through a metal detector and then escort me to the plane. Sometimes, the agent even buys me a coke.

                  So FT, how do you measure up? And don't you owe someone a grand for not showing your paycheck against theirs?
                  FT gets free train rides though, and that little perk alone more than offsets the benefits you speak of above. After all, can you make solid barg that you get to experience firsthand the thrill of riding in a choochoo engine and pulling a little cord that makes a train whistle go "toot-toot-toot"?

I'd look for a career in a different line of work. Of course I also believe that only skilled, specialized, and licensed professions should be able to form unions in the first place. We don't need a lunch lady union, or a semstress union. All those do is cheapen the cause of the legitimate unions.

                      That's like being excited you can ride a bike as you're being passed by cars. I can't think of anyone who would take a train anywhere versus a car or plane. In a car you get privacy and comfort and on a plane you get speed. A train is pretty much a semi on rails. Haul goods but it's days of being the go to transportation for people are long past

                          Dude you just make yourself look like a douche. If me laughing at how lame you are is considered getting under my skin, by all means...continue.

                          And for my age, I have a pretty high income as do more people on here than you think. We dont rely on that to make us feel cool, or feel the need to mention it in every post. Why do you try so hard for acceptance than act like its intentional doucheyness when called out?
