But... that is my point. The hospital did not refuse care..they offered care. The care offered was refused...tough! Don't let the door ya on the way out. What if the hospital was staffed by 100% non-whites? Whatta ya do now?

Ok... I should have shut my phone off 2 hours ago. I gotta get around. We're not going to go anywhere from here. If I were the administrator, there would be one less idiot in my facility...whether he found adequate care and lived or not...wouldn't concern me in the least.

I thought you had met Guido?

No sir...the patient is risking their own life. I didn't demand something stupid, they did. I've never made such an oath. I'm not sure that making an oath requires you to succumb to bigotry. Your oath is "do no harm"...what if the same guy pulled out a gun and pointed it at you?

I don't think you give them enough credit. If they were unlimited...it would get scary. At 200+ mph, how far are they going to have to push the stands back? The next county?

It's not about the staff's feelings. It's about the fact that they offered competent care. Unless you can show me a qualification or a performance issue with that person, I would not allow a change based on bigotry. I just wouldn't allow it. I'm not sure that I would even allow a change based...

Is there any power requirements listed. I know I could look, but then I would ask you to explain it anyway..lol. How many batteries required to run the 13k for 10 hours?

But they offered the care needed. The idiot chose to be an idiot and refuse it. One less idiot... would be my thought.

Yes...it is their problem...and they should take it elsewhere. I wouldn't allow if it I were the hospital administrator. Preference based on qualifications, performance...sure. Preference based on stupidity? the same door that let you in will let you out.

Personally...if it's my life...or a loved one's life on the line.... I couldn't care less what somebody's skin color is. I want to know who is best with that particular condition. It would be really stupid and dangerous to refuse treatment from a well qualified and proven provider because of...

But how does the person's skin color become involved in that life or death rationale? Some of the best and most caring nurses I had were black.

I think you have the freedom to choose who provides your medical treatments. But, I also believe that you don't have the right to demand a change of personnel at that particular medical facility based on anything other than performance. In other words, I believe the proper response from the...

I'm guessing that the rates for "easy entry" are equally dismal...lol

If they offered the right gig, I would be willing to try it myself. If they decide to make it a permanent offering, I would likely buy a new single axle tractor for the job.

Agreed. FDXCC does a lot of things that don't go over so well, but they have always been on the ball with trying new things. Most forget that corporate's main goal is corporate profits.

Kinda pushin the boss man's buttons a little there ain't ya? :D I'm putting a lot of hope in our new sales leader (forgot the title..lol). I'm hoping that he brings with him some knowledge of how to diversify a company's freight base. I'm also hoping that the powers that be at L1 are open to...

Should be "Sprinter for sale or rent".....eh?

Well...the title does ask "what will you charge?" What are they worth to ya? :D

I guess I don't understand...other than the actual swapping, the security would be the same ....given equal training. I guess it could be a risk at the moment that there is no tractor under the trailer. In a swap, that would be a very, very short time though. With a company the size of fedex or...

It would be just as secure as any team load... if that team stops for any reason. There are always going to be two people there and they will both be in on duty status, so both are actually "watching" the secure load. The swap trailer...the empty one... doesn't require guarding, so the secure...
