    Wasted 28 years trying to protect our Southern Border. Now it seems it was all for nothing. Thank God I retired before we became daycare workers instead of enforcement.

          dino21 I can only imagine if loyal people like you didn’t do your job in the past. It was not for nothing. You protected our country. Thank you for your service.

          We are not responsible for decisions made that are out of our sphere of influence. You can be proud of your service. It is not representative of the decisions being made today. Those in power will be held accountable for the destructive decisions they make, if not by the voters, then by a much higher power - God - for not being good stewards of what they were entrusted to.

              I’m always curious what everyone does for a profession in these groups. It is always cool to see how diverse we are. I am a State Trooper and have been since 2007. Prior to that I worked many years in home construction and taught second grade right out of college.

              I am a robotic/minimally invasive surgeon. Currently doing mostly general surgery like appendix, gallbladders, bowel resection, hernia repair, etc. As well as being father of a 7, 5, and 3 year old. Hard to find much time to myself but I think it’s important to make some and when I do I really enjoy cooking and such. Plus a mans gotta eat. 😁

                      dino21 no not a waste. You were trained and paid to do a job under different rules and circumstances than today. Frustrating? Yes. But a person doesn’t waste their time/life by doing the job at parameters they are given and then one day changed. Thank you for your service.

                        Surg I think that is a pretty interesting and challenging profession. Technology constantly changing along with changes in procedures. It looks like someone tricked you into pushing the 🔵 button.
