    Foreign Workers Walk Off Job At Hershey Packaging Plant

    Spoiled? I guess some were, by having a job for 20 years, with benefits & some feeling of security, enough to pay the mortgage on a modest house in a decent neighborhood, drive a decent car, go out to Sunday brunch at IHOP every now & then. Then getting the 'pink slip', bucking up & printing...

    USA - Food Stamp Nation

    Working 2 jobs sounds pretty simple - if you're not the one who is trying to do it. Part time jobs are 'entry level' - read: a dime a dozen, "you don't like it, there's the door, and send in your replacement from the many waiting". Those jobs don't include any flexibility in days or hours...

    August location

    Maybe something about how you make 'a place for everything' in very little space? Because there are so many creative solutions to the problem, and even folks who've been at it for years enjoy a virtual peek into another driver's truck. We're not nosey, we just want to flatter someone by...

    A TOY Gun Buy-Back Program....

    Grrrr - I didn't say 'Republican', did I? Because conservative Democrats can be just as odious about trashing liberals. The party isn't the problem [except for idiots who vote a 'straight ticket' rather than actually think about it], the problem is looking for things to feel 'superior' about...

    A TOY Gun Buy-Back Program....

    Every one of the brazillion articles you post has the same message: liberals in general [and the President in particular] are evil scum bent on destroying the American Way, which makes your admission that one is as bad as the other seem a bit, shall we say, hollow? It's not too hard to find...

    A TOY Gun Buy-Back Program....

    Agree that it's the wrong approach to teaching kids - better to teach them how to make their own choices, based upon accurate info and critical thinking skills. Don't teach what to think, but how, and they'll learn what they need to know.

    New Owner

    Hettick: welcome to EO! In your research, pay special attention to the subject of how to heat & cool your van [hint: insulation is critical], because before you know it, you'll be shivering instead of sweating, lol. :eek:

    J robbed in Houston

    You know what he meant: nobody got hurt, and that means it was safely robbed, yes. And if anyone decides to safely rob some banks, please pm me, I have a couple favorites. ;)

    Story Time----Let's hear 'em

    Oh! Please do it again [a different victim - I have some suggestions, if you need them;)] and this time, don't forget the video!!! [Note to self: do not open door for anyone for any reason!] PS First time I heard The Meanie, I was sleeping on the top bunk & codriver didn't mention it - I very...

    Vice or Virtue

    Chances are, since you obviously did marry, the question is moot. Which segues nicely back on topic. :D

    Vice or Virtue

    There are enough angles to factor into a load offer [$, ending area, day of week, toll roads] without stirring some emotional baggage into the mix, at least for me, because dispatch generally wants the answer like yesterday. Oh - the answer to the ex spouse question is 'in a heartbeat - if I...

    Vice or Virtue

    Moot: would you have taken the load if you didn't know about the prior one? There's your answer. :)

    Trying to startup a hotshot company, could use some O/O advice

    Awww - we like helping, but the thing is, if you mean traditional 'hotshots' [pickup truck pulling trailer for mostly the oilfield industry], that's not what we do here. What kind of company do you have in mind? On the other post [and it's best to stick to one, or replies get split up and...

    Pumpernickel does go bad

    I've never seen one, and I loved mine, all kinds of good bread. You could just cut the recipe in half, but the machines are not very small themselves and once you find recipes for 'apple pie' bread and honey oat nut bread, the ingredients begin taking over the cabinet space, cause you only need...
