I was smart enough to find a profession that pays $100k. That’s a good living in Michigan. And I work from home. When I don’t I’m 7 minutes from the office. No mortgage. No student loans or kids to worry about.So a used car salesman is bitching about how stupid vets are today........lmao
Whatever floats your boat.
This car over here was garage kept, only driven to church on Sundays by a little old grandma.
Most homeless people didn’t graduate high school and certainly didn’t get the benefit of serving for 4 years.I can ask the same of the other homeless peeps. And not all homeless are jobless. That just simply isn't true.
Inflation and gov't cheese might be a better understanding of that. Even as the Free loader train of unemployment extra money has ended.
I didn't specify vets only. But it effects us all when our dollar can't buy squat and housing costs go up 50 to 60'% since the plannedemic.You think inflation and free government cheese are why there are so many homeless vets? Maybe if blue collar jobs paid better.
Blue collar jobs only don't pay as much in areas where illegals helped lower the rates. Insulation and Scaffolding being prime examples. Pay out there even now is the same as before the plannedemic. Per diem rates have gone up some to cover costs for travelling to work. Not all the jobs are back probably because it's hard as hell to get materials to do the job now.I think the problem is more the fact that blue collar jobs don’t pay what they used to. And all those high paying manufacturing jobs are gone.
Good for you. Yet how does that make you an expert on slamming the vets on this thread. Which was the very point of the op.I was smart enough to find a profession that pays $100k.

I will retire at 62. I’m doing pretty good.
You might as well try to be a flying camel.Not trying to be a good person here.
Yawn You are just attacking the military. Lots of folks are homeless because it costs so dang much. California is Blue as they get and are the worst .......Most homeless people didn’t graduate high school and certainly didn’t get the benefit of serving for 4 years.
I understand why they are homeless but not people who served for 4 years.
Remember that commercial? “We don’t need experience, we give it.” Not always.
Well I’m trying to help us solve the misconceptions so you con vets stop hating civilians specifically us liberals. We support the troops not the mission.Good for you. Yet how does that make you an expert on slamming the vets on this thread. Which was the very point of the op.
btw........WE ARE WAY OFF TOPIC.
You seem like a dick.You might as well try to be a flying camel.
leave! Why are you in one of the most expensive states? Were you born there?Yawn You are just attacking the military. Lots of folks are homeless because it costs so dang much. California is Blue as they get and are the worst .......
We don't hate civilians. Hang on. Let me ask my wife............Hey baby do I hate you because you didn't serve.Well I’m trying to help us solve the misconceptions so you con vets stop hating civilians specifically us liberals. We support the troops not the mission.
I can’t believe there was a time someone would have the balls to disrespect the troops. People could hate viet nam but not take it out on the troops.
Like i said I’d go out of my way to hire a vet even pay them a little more because they served. Mad respect for that
LOLleave! Why are you in one of the most expensive states? Were you born there?
Sounds like Detroit. where half the population moved out.Same advice you give people who live in ghettos where there are no economic opportunities
Idiot....They can learn a skilled trade in 1 year of community college.
Erica Uleski fought to save her fellow service members as an Army medic in Iraq, working under brutal conditions to stanch bleeding, save limbs and bring back lives teetering on the edge.We don't hate civilians. Hang on. Let me ask my wife............Hey baby do I hate you because you didn't serve.
Nope........she didn't agree with you. We don't like the ones who trash us like we saw here on this very thread.
Well I hope you learned a little from this thread. As many jobs in the military are very advanced and have some of the best training there is on it.
They can. One year of community college, they can get credit for serving in the military. So then just go right into the one year program for CNC programming.Idiot.
Idiot.They can. ....
LOL
I'm from Alabama........
But yes......Leaving California is smart.
Sounds like Detroit. where half the population moved out.
And. Medics don't have degrees. But after treating the wounded on the battlefield they probably have more experience than Nurses with degrees.Erica Uleski fought to save her fellow service members as an Army medic in Iraq, working under brutal conditions to stanch bleeding, save limbs and bring back lives teetering on the edge.
But when she returned to Virginia Beach in 2007 after three tours in Iraq, she found her extensive combat medical experience had little relevance in the civilian health care world, largely because she lacked the required licenses. She was able to leverage her language skills to pivot to another career instead.
“You can tell all the stories you want,” Ms. Uleski said. “But if you don’t have the credentials, you don’t get work.”
So. I make good money and the cost of living is low......until this dang plannedemic happened.Alabama
Alabama is the fifth poorest state in the U.S., and 16.8% of Alabamians live below the federal poverty threshold – a noticeably larger percentage than the national average of 13.1%. ... While 28.4% of African American people and 32.2% of Latino people live in poverty, only 12.2% of white people do
LOL

I can ride my ebike to work and I work from home.So. I make good money and the cost of living is low......until this dang plannedemic happened.
Now my money is worth less.............And without the gulf coast doing the heavy lifting in this country you wouldn't have the gas to drive around in.
Choose your rate decide your fate. Jobs in the Navy are ratings. Each one being more adaptable to the outside versus the ones that don't.A majority of veterans say their military service was useful in giving them the skills and training they needed for a job outside the military – 29% say it was very useful and another 29% say it was fairly useful.
So 42% disagree with you.
Veterans who served as commissioned officers are much more likely than either noncommissioned offers (NCOs) or enlisted personnel to say that their military service was very or fairly useful in giving them the skills needed for a job outside the military
Some 16% say it took them more than a year to find a job, and 6% say they were not able to find one.
