Depends on how many people with guns show up when I call for help, which is why the charger is critical, silly man. :cool:

Moot: read the FAQs, Goober - they explain everything. Including how to charge a cellphone [or mp3 player] using the stove, which is what I really like. When the zombies show up, I want my phone & mp3 player working, for sure! ;) OK, it's probly gonna be terrorists with an EMP, but that's just...

If it'll help put Al Gore out of work, I might buy 2 of them! ;)

BioLite CampStove - BioLite Stove Could be quite useful, and takes up very little space - I want one. :)

You know they're just jealous, lol.;)

I'd love to be more productive & profitable, and am hoping to find more focus on freight outside the automotive area. Waiting at the shipper who won't have the freight ready "for another hour", and my ability to have a good attitude is wearing thin. Some customers need to be reminded that the...

I second that emotion! :D

To the best of my knowledge, the only forklifts you'll encounter will be the property of the shippers & receivers, and you have about as much chance of being permitted to operate them as getting a load to Hawaii. Damifino why the forklift cert - Plan B, maybe, in case you change your career...

AJ: I'm glad, too, to hear that your nightmare is over. I'd also like to see a forum, thread, or sticky for service locations, but it'd almost have to be one where posts get previewed by admin before appearing. Way too many of the "Joe Blow sucks" kind of nonhelpful posts otherwise. Thoughtful...

If you meet folks during orientation that you just 'click' with, trade phone numbers with them, because sometimes you have questions that just won't wait for an answer online, lol. Once orientation is finished, you likely won't see them again for a long time - if ever. Maybe take enough...

100% irrelevant.

Tennesseehawk: your statement about affirmative action meaning that minorities don't have to perform as well in their training - can you point to a source? I've heard that minorities get advanced in the admittance queu, but in performance during training? I believe [and sure as heLL hope!]...

Ditto for the Class A in Mo - I had to parallel park a t/t, which never ever happened once I'd done it and was driving one. Stupid rule! Jackie: the pretrip is an important part of the test, because it's an important part of driving commercially. It was like a foreign language to me, too, but...

You're silly! Men are allowed to post here, and they only need to run for their lives if they say dumb things. You're safe. So far. ;)

I'm really surprised to read that this is an 'open secret' in hospitals, because in nearly 10 years of nursing in a major hospital, I never once heard of it. The only objections we encountered were to the opposite gender, based upon religious and/or cultural grounds, and those we honored, same...

If you think all women object to guns, you better be real nice, or the one you tick off might shoot you, lol. ;) PS Great clip, I really want to see the movie again now!

Muttly: you're quite welcome to question my assertions & conclusions, [that's why we're here, innit?] but I do insist that you read them carefully first. 1: I do assert that professors do not exhibit the blatant and one sided bias alleged in the OP's story, because that would be contrary to the...

It wasn't the qualifications of the professor being questioned, but the perceived bias in prohibiting Fox News as a source, but no equivalent 'left leaning' sources. That was supported by a photo of a torn bit of paper with two typewritten rules [no Fox News and no Onion sources] and a "media...

Hometime ends when the driver notifies dispatch of inservice status, which would be when the driver is picked up, no? That's the policy - in practice, as Armin said, dispatch will call you if they need you, even if you're not in service. ;)
