    60/40?/fair?

    I don't get this part. As it was explained to me a while ago and practiced for a while when I had to hire contractors, 1099 contractors have some limitations, equipment was not one of them. Equipment can be provided by the person who contracts you to do the job, in the case of an IT...

    Injury Liability

    Well the problem is that even if the other owner has worker comp or some other type of insurance, you are at work and covered by your insurance. Thinking about it there also may be a clause in the contract you sign that pretty much puts the company's liability in such cases to Zero. There are...

    What A joke

    The Olympic Torch arrived in SF and for some reason there is more security over this symbol of waste than there has been for any leader of any country in our history. I think if the Pope was in SF at the same time, he would have to take a taxi. They have been trying to protect The Olympic...

    His new house. He is building a survival cabin and is off the grid. He has been collecting waste oil for a long time (I think he is up to 1500 gallons with a 3000 gallon capacity). The engine uses about .85 of a gallon right now at 1000rpm and he has talked cat into reprogramming it to lean the...

    1998 FL70, CAT 3126, 6 speed Allision automatic

    you can rebuild the 3126, not a problem if it has a good block. It is not like a wet sleeved engine, ISC for example so if you drop a valve or break a ring, the cylinder will either have to be machined or a dry sleeve put in or get a new block. However, I talked to someone this past weekend...

    Injury Liability

    I am not sure but I think it is no, because you are contracted to do a job at the same company and it could be considered a only a work place injury. But in all honesty, call a lawyer to get a straight answer because there are too many variables involved. The reason I say get a lawyer who you...

    American Axle / GM strike

    What a great way to wake up and start my day laughing. Little Joe, the last time I checked Canada is a foreign country. It is not part of the US, it is not part of Mexico, but it is Canada. A country I actually admire in many many ways. A country that is foreign. The problem is the...

    American Axle / GM strike

    You know you make a good point. Yes let's start building our economy up, first stop buying products made in foreign countries, like Dodge Caravans and Ram trucks or HHRs. Get rid of this attitude that Canada is the same as the US, they are a foreign country like India, China and Mexico. Let's...

    American Axle / GM strike

    What? They have no choice? They have a choice, either realize that their jobs will go overseas or take a cut in wages and benefits to keep working. They make about $65 an hour including the cost of the benefits, the reduction that is needed to keep the company solvent in the US lowers it to...

    American Axle / GM strike

    Inventories are up anyway for all involved, we are in a recession in the domestic automotive sector maybe even going into a depression so a shutdown going into the last quarter of the model year before the change over isn't all that bad. You know thinking about it, you don't hear much in the...
