Since your side wipes millions off the unemployment roles to cook the employment rate numbers you quoting it just makes you a bigger bullshitter than they are.HHusky said:
Unemployment is 3.6%. And you trannies can’t figure out why that affects military recruitment.thechatch said:
Now you want to tell me that minimum wage + a 28k one time endowment is competitive with the US Military? 28k ain’t 80% of tuition unless we’re talking about community college.HHusky said:

There is a lot of bullshit people put up with in large employer organizations if the pay and benefits are right. The Armed Forces have to do more when people have perceived alternatives. They aren’t the only employers that offer pay and benefits.thechatch said:
I don’t think I was ever whining about anything, but let’s assume the recent “wokeness” of the military is a flashpoint issue for some on the board here, or with a percentage of potential enrollees…HHusky said:
The military has always been a jobs program to some degree. It can’t realistically be an at will employer though. So when the demand for workers is high it has trouble finding and retaining them.thechatch said:

Want soldiers? Pay ‘em.
GI Bill still pays for college, and these days that’s a lot of money, tax free. Two years active duty gets 80% of all tuition handled by Uncle Sam. That’s pretty damn good.
MS is a good deal, provided you aren’t being sent to a place like Iraq, Ukraine or Afghanistan to fight in some war for corrupt politicians and their defense contractor donor base.
Whining about “wokeness” is still just whining.
Do you have data points that suggest this recent cultural policy pivot has been a net positive for enrollment?
Are you telling me we’d be even worse off with military recruitment if we didn’t have transgender awareness week as part of basic training?
Or are you just saying that, given the current job market, a two year salaried commitment to active duty that gets the vast majority of your college tuition paid for just isn’t good enough for the kids these days, and we need to re-think what we comp our recruits.
Because while I’m willing to entertain a discussion on the latter, the former is fucking stupid.
A kid can go to work at Dicks and get some tuition assistance. He can also quit instantly in favor of a better job.
When the civilian opportunities are there, or perceived to be, military recruitment will struggle. When civilian opportunities are few, sitting through some lecture on inclusiveness just isn’t a big deal. You just sleep with your eyes open and wait it out.
And that’s not to ignore the fact that your civilian employer may also have some woke nonsense for you to pretend to care about.
No two year commitment to work at Dicks. You’re still free to explore your civilian opportunities.
You girls were for low unemployment before you were against it.
If I’m 18, a two year run with the army before having my college essentially paid for sounds better than working at Dicks, even with the market freedom to go get a job at McDonald’s if I decide I don’t like re-stocking soccer cleats.
Oh wait it sounds like McDonald’s isn’t hiring right now…..
Also I’m not a girl, HH.
You wanted to have a serious conversation, but we’re one serious thinker short. -
Loser just doesn’t want to accept the defeat. It’s over stupid. You lost. Your side is destroying our military. Bye!HHusky said:
So serious.thechatch said:
In fact that’s what I wanted to focus on, because your assertion that a cash register job at a sporting goods store was financially competitive and allowed the worker freedom to move in between jobs doesn’t pencil.HHusky said:The girls want to kvetch about military recruitment.
But economics and demographics are off limits.
Good luck the rest of the way, ladies. -
I thought you were going to try and do this without the name calling.HHusky said:

You’re projecting. -
The Dazzlers panties are in a bunch.

Ladies, many administrations have had low unemployment and horrible recruiting numbers.
Losers lose. -
Who wouldn't want to be a part of this proud national institution that defends our country?

I have an idea what we can do to improve recruiting. Why don't we shit all over the people who make up the core of our combat troops. We'll mock them as backward rubes and call them racists and bigots if they don't salute the BLM and Trannie flags. We'll denigrate their values and their religon while continuously removing merit as a reason for promotion while replacing it with gender and racial quotas.HHusky said:The girls want to kvetch about military recruitment.

Where do I sign up to serve under this kind of leadership?

Government agencies, like corporations, are led by culture.
Good culture is a prerequisite for success and bad culture is a guarantee of eventual failure.
So what do we think of the top down culture in todays armed services? -
Would any of you tell your 18 year old that they should sign up to serve under Biden after watching the Afghanistan withdrawl cluster fuck? Young men who want to fight in order to prove themselves aren't too keen about serving under a bunch of fucking trannies. While that maybe Dazzler and Mello's dream job that's not what most young males who aren't pole smokers are into.
