  • Hey Elok!

    Someone poke him if he's off the site for lent or something (I have no idea when Orthodox Easter is). The FAA is hiring people off the street for air traffic controller training. He was contemplating joining the military before and this is a much better job than that.

    He said something about being super busy for a while IIRC.

          You realize you could Google "Orthodox Easter" right?

          Also, PM'ing a poster sends an email to them. Hence, even if giving up Poly and Social Media for Lent, one can read any info.

            Sure. Especially since 1981.

              NPR only reports 'news' about lesbians, so not interested.

                    Unfortunately for him, that job will likely be taken by people who did join the military.

                        Meh. They only get 5 pts. If he really wants the Job he can just keep taking the test until he gets it.
