You think people would actually stay if they were able to leave? You think these people are masochists who enjoy being unhappy? Or do you think that they are merely pretending to be unhappy?
Which of the above seems most logical to you?

Funny, because I have seen guys who complain and moan endlessly about the army. The pay is crap (true), the postings suck (true), the officers are wallys (errrrrr…. True), the kit is junk (true) and every other soldier is a thieving bisexual wimp who cant be trusted to cross the road alone (true).
And yet they stay in, and sign on for another term. I remember one guy like this who actually had tears on his face when we paraded him out on retirement.
I guess they have no other career to go to, or just enjoy a good moan.
I remember a guy who drank Courage Beer in the UK. He was always saying “this beer is crap”.
I asked him “so why do you drink it”.
He replied “I have drunk it all my life”
(Whatever happened to Courage Beer)

Of course - because it's simply not possible that anyone could genuinely dislike somewhere so magically fantastic.

Because leaving is not a practical option for them. Is that really too difficult for you to work out on your own?
You think people would actually stay if they were able to leave? You think these people are masochists who enjoy being unhappy? Or do you think that they are merely pretending to be unhappy?
Which of the above seems most logical to you?
