No, he got turned down. As did I for the last twenty years or so.

I was turned down for a new position yesterday. I guess I didn't handle the rejection right because I finished folding clothes after getting the word, then put a light coat of oil on the appropriate parts of the guns in my safe.

Those clothes don't fold themselves and rust is one of the two enemies of firearms.

The new position, was it scaring teenagers to take the straight and narrow path? Because if it was they were nuts to not select you.

Community outreach to "little old lady groups"?? Maybe not so much.

It's a daily problem. I feel you.

I'm not really a union guy or anything, but if this happened to me, there'd be some mandatory collective bargaining or I'd be applying elsewhere.

People need to start telling him to get rid of the guns in his security detachment.

I see your problem, KG. She found out about KomboJoe feeling you.

She suggested it.

Update:

(Can't imagine why he was turned down...)

Sheriff Kevin McMahill identified the suspect on Thursday during a press conference as Anthony James Polito, 67. McMahill said that Polito was a resident of nearby Henderson, Nevada, and applied "numerous" times for jobs with several higher education institutions in Nevada, and was denied each time.

(I see why ECU canned him.)

The sheriff said that Polito had a "list" of people he was "seeking" on the campuses, including faculty from Eastern Carolina, where he previously worked.

(I think this makes one a terrorist.)

Polito also mailed 22 letters to various university employees across the country with no return address, one of which had a white powdery substance inside, McMahill said.

(We are still waiting for the motive in the Vegas mass shooting...)

Police are still trying to determine a motive, McMahill said.

(Not SWAT, detectives. The first people who showed up with guns eliminated the threat. GFZs, aren't.)

Two detectives who initially responded engaged the alleged shooter and fired their weapons, leaving the suspect dead.
