It makes no difference - one cannot make an informed opinion, judgement, or comment on an article one did not read, and this is a perfect illustration of the one little detail that changes the whole situation: the LEO was not in court, but in front of a classroom. Big difference, when telling a...

Because the pigeons work cheaper than the union guys, no doubt. :D

We've had this discussion before, lol, and pretty much agree that a GPS is an excellent tool, though it can't replace the atlas. [I learned with an atlas, and really need to see the route - which helps when the GPS says "turn R onto 70 East" but a R turn is onto 70 West - I know which one I...

Kind of agree with LDB. Not that they will steal it, but you shouldn't put anything in there you can't afford to replace - at least until you're sure the drivers are trustworthy. It sounds like you want to be a good boss, and I think that's the best you can do for them, up front. If they work...

Making new friends is not my first priority here - making Load 1 look good takes precedence, so when someone says something that reflects poorly on Load 1, John E, or the dispatchers, I will speak up. I stand behind my comments.

There are many situations that require that physical contact [mostly involving a doctor or Xray tech] that we accept without batting an eye. If someone cannot accept it for the purpose of security on airplanes, they have options: having it done in private, or simply traveling by other means. I...

I read it as 'the boys' just making sure I know they don't want me invading their territory - especially when what I have to say doesn't flatter them. I stand behind my comment, and will make no more on the 'boys' thread.

That you see no problem in saying that you don't need me telling you what to do, which is YOU telling ME what to do, is exactly why I will never be part of 'the group'. PS Sarcasm is what people use in place of reason.:(

Okay, now you've hurt my feelings, and I don't wanna play in the OVM/Juju/ChefDennis sandbox anymore. To be frank, I didn't really want to in the first place - [any post outside ' the group's' seems an unwelcome intrusion into a conversation, IMO] but someone dragged my name into it, right...

which part of RAPE IS NOT ABOUT SEX are you not getting? Do you contend that the majority of rape occurs to women who are dressed provocatively, and it's for that reason? I don't think so. A very large number of women were raped while in their own homes - were they 'asking for it'? Attracting...

Wait for what? :confused:

While I am not a fan of the MTV style of dressing, [wearing underwear as outerwear], particularly among young girls who haven't a clue about sex, I have to wonder just how much clothing had to do with the many women raped in their own homes - especially the much older ones. And the nuns, too...

"Water in the fuel" by Fred Eaglesmith is a good one, if only to show how far we've come [as professionals] since then.

I totally understand the expectation that people must be self sufficient - the only problem is, most require a job to accomplish that. [Not enough rich relatives or winning lottery tickets to fill the need, sigh.] Not since the Great Depression have so many been 'out of work', through no fault...

You don't mean me personally, as I ensured that my children were educated and prepared to be self sufficient adults, which they are. You mean society, and the reality is that too many parents fail to live up to their responsibilities, but if society fails to fill in the gaps, where are we then?
