There is nothing like getting a raise just for showing up for work.


Our soldiers got an even bigger raise this year, but then, I guess you'd
say they just showed up for work.


Who said anything negative about the military, asshole? And, I do mean
asshole with as much disrespect and ill will as possible towards you.
You pulled the military into this mess. The topic was federal civilian
pay. I have 8 male first cousins and 4 of them have or are serving in
the military. If you want to start talking about the preceding
generations we can bring them into the mix too. You really don't want
to get into the question about support for the military with me.

Besides I was a federal civilian employee and I was in the US armed
forces (ie military). I am qualified to comment on both.
