I guess you do not know who my employer is?

You still indirectly work for the people who pay your wages by following the orders of a CinC that is elected to office.

End of civics class for today.

So you indirectly work for me because I puchase goods from someone who ultimately purchases goods from your employer, thus keeping you employed?

Not sure what CinC means? I am unfamilar with that terminology.

Then yes.

He is actually my boss on two fronts, being the commander of the military, as well as being the Chief Executive of the executive branch.

Yes, thats called good old fashioned customer service, and believe it or not that used to be the standard that good salespeople working with the public would hold themselves to.

I know that in the current era of hiring untrained idiots //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif as salespeople that concept is no longer valid, but its the way it used to be when being in sales used to be considered a career.

CinC stands for Commander in Chief, I thought a military guy might have known that.

Hey faulkton,
How close are you located to Ellsworth, AFB? It is near Rapid City or Big Rapids....near the badlands.

The brochure said they do not get much snow due to the mountains, but you posted huge drifts.

There are some opportunities out there, I was wondering if I should take advantage of them.

Rapid is west river. Less precip, and more scenery- mountains/hills/forests. Rapid is the second largest city in the state. Its not bad really, but rapid is like the only thing out there....the rest of the western part of the state is pretty desolate.

I live east river, where its flat farming country. I am about 6 hours from rapid.

It was shit where I worked. I used to work in a small town kind near Camp David. We couldnt do deliveries to certain shops, the roads were blocked off, you had to show proof that you lived on that road to get down it. Jets flying over like every half hour so low you could hit them with a baseball. There are small bases all over that mountain near Camp David. I didnt get to leave work, the owner was like they arnt going to bomb us. Well all the phones were down from all the call traffic, nobody showed up to get their cars worked on. We just sat there. What a tight ***, his *** was so tight you could stick a lump of coal up it and a diamond would pop out an hour later.

I've never heard anyone call the president CinC, or commander in chief. They say Bush or president.

Only one I have heard is DIRNSA. Which is the DIRector of NSA.

Me either. That is why I had to ask.

This thread turned that way because of the interpretation that civial service means civil servant. Although the terms are used interchangebly, it does not make me a slave to the taxpayers.

I have to decide to either quit or get my PhD. After several discussions with students, it will impossible to do both.

How's that for a threadjack?
