Default Is serving in the military classified as a "job"

Military service can be a 'job', but for most it's a lot more than that.
I'm not going to spend a lot of time on what I think of it, because I
don't
think Harry, or his puppies, would appreciate it anyway. I'm sure Harry
would give the same reply he normally does when he has been shown to be
the
fool.


It's unfortunate that some people can't understand this. To completely
understand it, you first have to accept and realize that some things are far
more important than one's self.
The fact that many can't understand this underscores their mindset and how
highly they perceive themselves.

It is a job. Different than other jobs, but is still a job. Also is
service for country. As to John's definition of job as 8 hours and go home,
maybe for the Union Label, but most of us in the exempt category put in more
than that in civilian professions.
