re: Calling BTHog to the flight deck.

Here, I'll just make this simple. Here are the things I've tried to argue. If you disagree with any then tell me and I'll attempt to hold your hand some more and spoon-feed you why they are what they are.

1 - Simply being in the military does not make you qualified for jobs that require unrelated experience or college education.

2 - People in the military who do not have the accepted experience/education mentioned in (1) do not get exceptions made to them because they were in the military

3 - Because of (2), this puts many vets at a disadvantage when it comes finding particular jobs after being in the military.

4 - Jobs in the private sector are not, in general, going to be bias towards people in the military just because they are in the military. They are going to hire the person most qualified for the position. To not do this can open them up to being sued for a plethora of things such as preferential treatment, discrimination, etc.

5 - Government jobs, by federal law, have to have preference towards veterans via the Veterans' Preference Act. This is an established law that has been around for decades, and abiding by it is not only legally required, but also monitored on a yearly basis.

So which one of those do you disagree with?
