When I was discharged from the Army in June, 1969 after flying from Saigon to Oakland, California, that is what people said to me. I turned down the first job because it was with the Managing Director of Philadelphia. I have passesd a civil service exam so I guessed I would be offered another job
I did agree on the second job because it had no politcal feel. I worked in a super market in Natick, Massachusetts for three months before I had the second job offer.
