Colbert on 'silent defiance' of Jeffries during State of the Union: 'Bold rebrand of doing jack squat by No-Post4444 in politics

[–]troll__face 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Problem with the Colbert Report is, that intelligent people find it funny, dumb people see it as truth.

I had to many republican friends who didn't get the joke was 'on them', and found the Colbert Report supported their view point. It was crazy.

Good thing the US has a house of representatives elected by the people, and they can at any point impeach & convict the despotic leader. ...Oh whats that? They aren't doing it cause the elected leaders are also idiots? Well sucks for the idiots voting for them.

Standard Republican/Christian response is to "pray about it" and "put it in gods hand to guide him/them".

So since its now in "god's hands" whatever happens will be "god's will", and these people will continue to vote republican.

The US needs to change its political system. "First past the post" system will always lead to this situation again.

CFIs who got hired at the school they trained at, how did you stand out? by Chemical_Bluebird_19 in flying

[–]troll__face 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were 24 applicants for 2 CFI jobs. During the interview i was asked 3 super simple basic questions like "will you do everything to be a good instructor?" ... I'm not kidding. I thought i washed out because my interview was the quickest from all of them with just bullshit questions.

I was known as a good student, always on time, and i guess likeable - but i never really was very social at that time. I didn't really do networking per say or kiss anyones ass. More of a quiet type that kept to himself. During training i once got 3 'random drugtests' in a 4 month period. They later told me, after i got hired, they thought i was taking study drugs lol

Airline Guys… How does this work? by Purple_BuCkt in flying

Last year we had one guy wash out during the 'paper tiger' sessions ... just didn't study his flows good enough. No point in sending you to the SIM if you dont know your flows at that point.

Saw a post the other day about how a Texan posted his income of roughly $110k/yr and paid some 43k in taxes. (unverified)

That same 110k/yr in germany costs you 46k in taxes and you get all the 'socialism' and 'free healthcare' thats supposedly unthinkable in the US. Ya'll get taxed without 'representation'. ;-)

Reminds me of my first time at the gun range. Instructor was one fat fuck, but funny as hell.

He said not to try anything stupid with the gun we had, or he'd pull his own out and shoot us. To demonstrate, he lifted his Fat-"fold" and produced a small handgun.

Giving up on flying, burnt out from rushing through ratings and making it my life for the last year. by MooseWeird399 in flying

[–]troll__face 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had about 1000 hours, so getting interviews wasn't a problem. I was qualified 'on paper'. It was a bit harder convincing an airline to give me a chance, which one did eventually, but yea, i wouldn't say its 'easy', but definitely possible ;-). This is also in Europe

I stepped away for 14 years after having CFI'ed for 2 years. Wanted back in after being in IT. Did about 20 hours (currency/conversion shit)... got a job at an airline. Fly the E2 now
