Lucky, don't you have to be 18? Or is it 17?

Besides, I don't think I could leave Hardee's because it's the same one my dad worked at back in the 70's, and the owner is aways depending on me and stuff.

Hardee's?

hardee's is a fast food chain, not as many of em around these days. i work as a painter at my school, sounds like fun doesnt it? i pick up a good $400 in 2 weeks of work, so i got myself a decent income for my stuff...man id love to work at a movie theatre, too bad the closest one is a good 30 minutes away...

Edit: Sorry, I totally forgot to comment on the outfits. I think they look good, im no expert in that type of stuff, but from pictures and stuff I've seen, its very convincing.

how long's the training? lol

maj_barnes · Post by **maj_barnes** » Wed Aug 03, 2005 12:34 am

The training for the place I work (since it's a Franchise) our training is done while you work. They get someone to go over stuff and help you out until they feel fit that you no longer need babying. Same for backline, but they make you memorize everything on the burgers, and how to do chicken and breakfast stuff.

ohh i see...I just figured since you had the best burger, the training would be intense, you know, down to the last detail haha...perhaps it is?

maj_barnes · Post by **maj_barnes** » Wed Aug 03, 2005 12:42 am

No, even at our crappest, we're still the best.

Sure!

DEDFX · Post by **DEDFX** » Wed Aug 03, 2005 2:10 am

Hardee's burgers look soooooooooooooo gooooooooooooood.

maj_barnes · Post by **maj_barnes** » Wed Aug 03, 2005 2:26 am

Because they are; I think we're getting a little off topic here though. (I like the 6 dollar burger!)

Hmm, my thread seems to have de-evolved into a pile of fast-food. Anyhow, since Spartan_Monkey is actually on topic and wants to know my costume I appreciate it. I put time into de-constructing the SWAT-style outfit.
-Black (or blue) military BDU pants and shirt
-Tactical vest with belt
-Thigh holster
-Tactical knee pads and elbow pads
-Leather gloves
-face balaclava (mask)
-PSG1 helmet (I got a plastic replica, same look but without being bullet proof)
-military goggles

DEDFX · Post by **DEDFX** » Wed Aug 03, 2005 1:16 pm

Could you send me a burger via mail?

maj_barnes · Post by **maj_barnes** » Thu Aug 04, 2005 2:02 am

I think I need a permit for it like if I would ship paint.

crossfire · Post by **crossfire** » Thu Aug 04, 2005 3:30 am

LOL i can only imagine what a burger would liek like after being tossed around for a few days of summer heat in an envelope! LOL

DEDFX · Post by **DEDFX** » Thu Aug 04, 2005 4:17 am

I really would buy it too, but o well.

rep22 · Post by **rep22** » Thu Aug 04, 2005 5:19 am

lol...where do you live DEDFX, there's gotta be one within 100 miles or somethin lol...and shawneous, just because we don't want to know what all you bought for the outfit, doesn't mean we're not interested in/like it...i do believe all you wanted was opinions, and it appears as though you got that...^

How much were the Tac vests, they look great.

SgtPadrino · Post by **SgtPadrino** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 3:36 am

You can find a good one for around forty bucks.

Check out www.blackhawkindustries.com and the gear section of www.airsoftextreme.com they should have everything you need in terms of gear.

And if you think that they're too expensive, well, that's because gear is expensive.

I live in Massachusetts... kinda far from Florida.
