This week was a busy week but it was one where I stopped to help another ‘expediter’ out. I won’t name the company, it really has to do with the pom pom squad more than anything but here is what happened. I have some work that takes me to an odd place, multiple companies using the...

Turtle, You are partially right, the conversion will reduce the up front cost but then you have upkeep now to contend with as government employees, which in the long run causes two things, more costs and an inflexible workforce. With the contracting out of the positions, the government doesn't...

Now Dave, let's clarify that.... do you mean write as in post or write in as "right"??

cough** (Rigged)

I know the problem, but most of the time they know what is going on if they are now a 90 day wonder. I find that many of these 90 day wonders don't get the idea that there is something called cruise control and a lot of us use it. I maintain a single speed that gets me up hills while under a...

Well OVM, the first thing is that we are not recovering from anything - the stock market increases are not a good indication of what is going on and we are still putting money into the system which is bad. Job creation is not really going on, I don't see a lot of jobs being created to help with...

There is a very good example of an inequity in the law. If the child is not a child by the court's decision, but it is when the law is applied in a different case, isn't that a violation of the civil rights of the accused? [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][COLOR=Black] AND Well here is a little lesson...

Ok, that's a new one, breech of security.... haha To answer the question, yes it can. I am pretty sure that they do run a credit check on every applicant and if there are flags that indicate a possible problem (selling information, theft of cargo, etc...) they will decline the app.

I think we should be like them, take Citgo and make it a US government run company.

Well if FedEx CC ever goes union, it would be great. You drive their truck, you take their loads without question and you get paid the same amount of money regardless. No more favoritism, no more high paying loads but everyone is equal and it is all fair.

I was reading the report from the EU on market share for the automotive groups there, the leader is the Volkswagen group, with some 205 of market share, followed by the Ford group with 11%, the GM group with 9.5% and the Fiat group with 9%. If GM sells Opel, they will lose 8.7% of the market...

My cat who was sick for the last week. She is mad at me for being here and not making money for her fish habit.

I don't know, I am moving three out of the five days by my option, so it is hard for me to see that. I do know come July, I will be moving one out of four.

I don't remember if this was touched on a while ago here on EO but after talking to a couple high school kids and what they should go after in their 'computer' career, I just had a thought who out in EO land is certified or was certified with computer skills, like MCSE or MCT or CCNA or what ever?

Well I think you understand what I am saying, which is good. A lot of forums do this to eliminate the "multiple personalities" that some have and for the most part we are more mobile than not which brings up that privacy issues have been address through a change in technology, there seems to be...

Why do people always think Harleys are loud? They came with mufflers and sound nice when they are new and unmolested. Other then the straight pipe crowd, the one I had was nice to ride, and quiet.

What's that noise? I don't know, it sounds like a swarm of bees No it sounds like.... I don't know but it is coming towards us Oh God its....... its..... HELICOPTER PARENTS

Oh yes of course, even some of the Wikiversity has some good courses and educational resources. http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Educational_Media_Awareness_Campaign Even Wikipedia is a good resource to learn from (not totally accurate but good enough to keep interests in things). I know of two...

Hey Buddha, I am wondering are you an open source guy? Do you promote open source products with your Hispanic friends? I was just reading about the push of Internet explorer in Mexico and Brazil, and thinking isn't this what you are driving at - bad US corporations exploiting the poor third...

Yea bring me a cup of coffee and a burrito.
