Indeed, participation in the last sorta precluded the possibility of the first.  ;)
Or second, for that matter.

QuoteHere are just a few of the perks you will be offered upon joining our team:
• Medical, Dental & Vision
• STD, Life, and AD&D

I think that's the first time I've ever seen "STD" and "AD&D" in the same sentence.


Indeed, participation in the last sorta precluded the possibility of the first.  ;)

Because AD&D players are above-averagely careful about using condoms? :unsure:

Or perhaps because they, as a race, are more resistant to disease?  :hmm:

Someone needs to join the Military.

I'm actually looking at the USAF site now.  It's rather obtusely designed.  Apparently rapid dominance requires a lot of Adobe Flash.

Careful Ide, you're beginning to sound like Shame with his "many careers." :lol:

I think it's a design choice by all the makers of military website. It must suck.

Well, I was looking at the the JAG office (ha ha, JAG office).  It's more competitive than I thought.  They say they only hire about 120 a year, and given the economy and number of law school grads (and experienced lawyers who have lost jobs or are just sick of the shit), I don't think I would make the cut, even ignoring the fact I'm not admitted to any bar.

It's a reaction to experience.

Knowing about "saving throws" leads to increased condom use.  :D

I looked into it here a couple of times.  I don't know how useful my information is, but I found it was indeed very competitive, and they do not hire people right out of law school.  Ironically my years of Crown experience would make me a good candidate now. :unsure:

And Ide - what's stopping you from being admitted to the bar?  Seems like that would help you out a lot.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

i'd think knowing above saving throws leeds to decreased condom need :P

Probably wise.  Otherwise I'm going to start speculating in the open.

Because peoplewho know about saving throws are more likely to be in steady, monogamous relationships and test themselves regularly? :unsure:
