To put in in prosective, imagine your boss (whoever you are and work for) telling you that you will be getting a 3 dollar and hour raise, but the catch is, you and your co workers must work around the clock and at any time may be killed. Your boss also informs you that you must wear heavy gear and he will be playing with the temperature so it will range anywhere from below 0 to 40 or 50 degrees. And he will be throwing anything he can think of at you to make your life miserable
Would you want that raise??
If you join the military you sort of ask for it...it would be like working for a boss without finding what they were going to pay you first....because it is the military it just not take away any responsibility from him....just makes it seem more honorable (stupid word) than the kid being ripped off at McDonald's....it is however not
