Should I Join the Military Instead of Work for You?

ceo qaDear Mr. Hlava,
I’ve been here two years and haven’t seen one pay increase. What’s up with that? Maybe I should join the military instead of work for you. At least with the army, I can shoot people while not getting paid. I also hear the coffee’s much better. What do you think of that?

Sincerely,
Jason in accounts payable

Dear Jason,
To that, I say, “I hope your aim is better than your invoicing.” The great thing about America is that it’s a free country, and I’ll feel a lot freer with you trouncing around Afghanistan for 48 months. For some people, the military is a great career choice. For others, the military is a great way to avoid the reality of what your next 40 living years will be like by participating in the most surreal pastime of man. Hopefully, the military can do something for you that we never could, which is teach you how to dress yourself.

Sincerely,
Richard Hlava, CEO
