Soldier reintegrating into civilian life A military veteran is assimilating back to civilian life and begins applying for jobs. He puts in an application with the state hoping for a 9-5 office job with decent benefits. They call him in for an interview. The interviewer is looking over his application and asks him about his military service. ""Yessir,"" says the vet, ""I was stationed in Iraq and then Afghanistan before being honorably discharged."" ""Thank you for your service."" says the interviewer. ""We do like to support our veterans."" Then the interviewer gets a thought. ""You aren't by any chance disabled in some way are you? We could check off another box and you'd be even more hireable."" ""Actually, I am."" He replies. ""I was hit by an IED and was emasculated in the process. I'm considered fully disabled (hence the discharge) but it doesn't really stop me from doing anything other than the obvious."" ""I am sorry for your loss, but that works out really well in your favor for this job. We'd like to hire you! You can start tomorrow, your schedule will be 11-5 Monday -Friday."" ""That's great!"" says the vet, ""But I thought I would start at 9am?"" ""Oh,"" says the interviewer, ""the office does open at 9, but we just sit around and scratch our balls for the first two hours and there's no sense in you coming in for that.""
