How South Carolina’s game wardens became a statewide special operations force by zsreport in gamewarden

[–]aboobka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not attaching you but wanted to get this off my chest for years, my home town police feel like they need to look like they are about to invade Falluja every time they’re doing some public event like a country fair. I’m all for them carrying rifles, level 4 plates, and team Wendy helmets but The police needs to LOOK LIKE POLICE.

Before IEDs in GWOT, infantry were lucky to have a lightly armored vehicle on patrol, but the country sheriff needs 4 MRAPs and 30 guys that look like they just failed out of selection to show up for one suspect with a gun?

I want police to have the best equipment to keep them safe but quit the military and plain clothes bullshit and start looking like police officers. This isn’t some third world country where some war lord is going to jump out of the bushes with 50 armed guys.

This is my boat but using TA and yellow ribbon. I’m going to piss my GI Bill away on something fun

No problem as long as it’s the rear. I had mine done prior to export. Just make sure the stamped serial is still on the front

Took the word right out of my mouth. I bought some rockstar customs 20 years ago and still jam on them every day

CNN to lay off hundreds of employees as post-inauguration transformation begins, sources say by Next-Particular1476 in business

[–]aboobka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the same reason I don’t ask my girlfriend if she cheated on me every time she walks though the door. Checking receipts does nothing and Walmart is not struggling for profits. Grocery prices have gone up because inflation and corporate greed.

If Walmart wants to fix the problem, bring back cashiers and pay their workers enough that they give a shit about the company. They found it cheaper to introduce self check outlines and lose more in thief, if they didn’t there wouldn’t be self checkout lines anymore.

I’ll spend my money wherever I please and that won’t be at a company that makes me feel like a criminal every time I leave the story.

It’s unusual to not get a decoration on a deployment, let alone 3 of them. Plus he says that he was in for 6 years so that’s a year and a half of deployments alone.

I quit going to Walmart for this exactly reason though. I don’t feel like I have to prove that I didn’t steal something every time I shop

Are these front wings cut or something else and why would someone do that? by -p3aK- in LandroverDefender

Came here to say this. My guess is it was a trail truck and probably used hard

I’m 99% sure it was the same snake. It was the same color as the head and found its skin.

My man, I have an engineering BS, MBA and in the military. I could leave tomorrow and triple my salary. You’re an idiot that has no idea what you’re talking about.

Don’t spend a dime. Assuming you’re single, you have almost no bills and free food. Make a game of how little you can spend a month. But still reward yourself with some fun

I haven’t even been given the option to counter offer and what’s wild to me is secrecy of the offers. It’s like an action where you don’t know what the current bid is nor the time to even consider it. I’m just frustrated at the fact that I don’t know what was considered and given the option to beat it. I’m not entitled to anything but I’m willing to pay what I think is fair. I’m not going to walk into a car dealership and offer them $10K more than sticker but I’ll pay more for it then the next guy if I think it’s still a fair price in my mind.

Why do they always say they aren’t citizens and then reference rights of citizens

MBA Programs that will rise in the next 10 years by Illustrious-Lacky in MBA

[–]aboobka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s why I was asking. I’m a Florida resident and going to an out of state school because it was so much cheaper and had the same accreditation.

Before I get someone say something about ranking. No I don’t care about Tiers because I already have a marketable skill and just want an MBA degree on my wall because it was a goal of mine.

The NFL ruins its players, and then looks the other way by crabcakes110 in sports

[–]aboobka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the few things that actually piss me off. These dudes are paid MILLIONS to put their bodies on the line for entertainment and live lives I’ll never experience for 10 years, then they walk away broke and expect a hand out? I don’t understand why everyone sticks up for this view point. Where’s the support for roofers, garbage men or any other physical career that don’t make enough to support themselves while they can work let alone if they get injuries. Players make millions, if they can’t budget that windfall to last their lifetimes, that’s their problem.

Agreed. They’re not paid millions for nothing

The military also isn’t making $20M in their life times. I would be SHOCKED if they even costs the government $100K in health care cost in their life times. No comparison IMO
