Always remember to thank veterinarians for their service, it’s fun to see the confusion on their faces

Jokes on you, I could care less either way. I was in but I feel I didn't do much to be thanked for.
"Thank you for doing the job that generates profit for corporations that you signed up for and were paid to do"
Thank you for your service and here are your awards and medals. Your family will thank you even more when you die and they hawk your medals at my pawn shop for a few extra bucks of inheritance.
My father in law used to run flea markets on the side. Used to say that in the service he worked hard as hell and never got a medal of honor, but working the flea markets he had a jar full of them. Nobody gives a shit about service.
It's only the virtue signalling that annoys me. If you're just trolling me, then it's good for a laugh.
I swept for your freedom.
One of the guys I work with now won't stop sweeping at work it's annoying as all hell. Now every time I see a broom outside of work I have a negative response to it, I might have PTSD. Anyways thanks for your service.
LoL
I tell everyone thank you for your service on memorial day
It's always awkward to respond to it, too. Like, my service sucked. Don't thank me because I was poor and needed a job and healthcare, lol. Most of the people I was in didn't give a shit about patriotism. We just wanted to not starve to death and go to college.
Like 10-15 years ago, I contacted the air force to join and become an officer (I have a degree). I wanted to do a gs-1102 job. The recruiter asked why I wanted to join. I said for a job. They said no, they wanted patriots. Guy, ask service members, they aren't there to "serve their country," they are there for a job.
I once got a call back about a job I applied to online informing me I’d have to commission as an officer in the Air Force for it, but that they really liked my resume. It was awkward af because I had rejected the Air Force industrial complex but it met my ethics (it was something like an environmental engineering role), but I had to inform them that as I’m hard of hearing I’m ineligible for the military. Sucks, I really could’ve used the stability, permanent health insurance, pension, and free extra college…
It’s very awkward for me especially since I was only an electrician fixing lighthouses, I wasn’t getting shot at overseas or anything.
I watched a documentary at a film festival a few years ago about a Vietnam vet, who was there for the premiere and took questions from the audience afterwards. The vet mentioned how much he hated hearing "thank you for your service" all the time. Another Vietnam vet stood up and asked him a question, and the first vet started off his answer with "thank you for your service".
😂😂
Thank you for your service 🫡
Thank you so much for your service
That's why you shouldn't thank them for their service with mere words, but with song. A rousing round of God Bless America sung by the entire room is how you properly thank service members. Remind everyone in the audience that if they don't join in, it's because they hate America.
If I never hear Lee Greenwood again it'll still be too soon.
The suicide rate is already high enough don't sing at them
i got service connected depression, but i wouldn't kill myself if someone did this. I'd just cringe myself to death.
I've heard it's Schrodinger's virtue signaling. Most military guys get annoyed, but then when you don't virtue signal, it just happens to be the one guy who actually enjoys it and gets upset that you didn't say, "thanks for your service".
"Thank you for aiding a corrupt military-industrial system."
That guy spent 4 years fucking up people's pay in finance never deployed, then didn't reenlist, fuck that guy.
Fuck that guy though.
That’s why I thank teachers for their service instead.
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
