How very "corporate evil" sounding of you. :D Unintended consequences. Always.

You mean the best thing that would happen TO cargo vans for those who are jealous that cargo vans can haul freight without having to log and scale. The sole reason for regulating CMVs is because their weight or their cargo is inherently dangerous and poses an unreasonable risk to the public...

Most likely yes. Thank you for staying on topic and not trying to derail the thread with irrelevant banal chit-chat.

The FanTastic Vent Model 6600R is the top of the line vent fan with all the bells and whistles. Reversible fan for intake or exhaust, 14-speed manual/auto variable fan, thermostat, rain sensor, automatic powered dome lid, and a remote control. It moves an insane amount of air (920 Standard...

They're not to keen on how a catalytic converter works, either. Un-burned gasoline goes to the catalytic converter where it is then re-burned? Really? LOL

Actually you did. Sorry, no. I mentioned "admin" but it was hardly in the context of a new topic. It wasn't in the context of a new topic anymore than "warm," "fuzzy" or "folk songs" were introduced as new topics of discussion.

As OVM said, that's a little off topic. But an admin manages all the technical details required for running the site. They manage the rules of the forums, site permissions, features to add or remove, create category sections and sub-sections, perform any database operations, control the look and...

That's what I used to do for a living, every day - work with the bottom line. I saw it, and I saw it at several different types of restaurants in both the big and small picture. I'm not talking generalities, theories or long-held beliefs, I'm talking about real-world applications cause and...

Poor Newt. He is clearly puzzled by the shiny black rectangles that we all carry around with us. What are these things? Cameras? Computers? Network access points? Phones? It's all too much to take in. Fortunately, Newt wants your suggestions about what these curious devices should be called.

That is, of course, entirely up to you. I'm sure you would, but it's not my place, nor am I going to post specific, personal details to a public forum about anyone unless they have already themselves posted in public about it.

There are lots more. I know several in vans, not to mention straights, who have moved on with success. One of them is an admin here on EO, in fact.

Chris Hadfield: NASA Astronaut, Commander of Expedition 35, International Space Station, Musician. Canadian.

I went to a Kroger once at about 2AM and the only checkouts were self-checkouts. Manager said from midnight to 6AM it's self-checkout only. I don't much like effectively working for the store for free, performing functions that a paid cashier would do (scanning items, bagging items...

Just imagine the chaos that there would have been had guns had been around before metal detectors and X-ray machines were invented.

Many people were confused by the designation of Biggie and Great Biggie (the former large and extra-large sizes). You are apparently one of them. A decade ago: Small - 12 oz Medium - 16 oz Biggie - 32 oz Great Biggie - 42 oz Wendy's discontinued use of their Biggie trademark in 2006, but...

That's true, but only to a certain point. The price of the product can never go above what the market will bear. That's true of a anything, be it a Big Mac, a Ford Ranger, tennis racket or a widget. It's the sales revenue that determine the labor and materials cost, not the other way around...

Some do, some don't. Depends on the labor market. Most pay higher than minimum wage, actually. It varies greatly by region, location and experience, but Hourly Managers (Shift Leaders) are paid in a range of $9.70 to $12.00 an hour, plus overtime and salaried benefits. Assistant Managers are...

"If you plead guilty you'll be out in a year. If you plead not guilty, and you are found guilty by a jury, you'll do 30 years." That's why.

30 years ago McDonalds and other fast food outlets were starter jobs. That was when we still had a manufacturing based economy. Today we have a service based economy and service jobs are no longer starter jobs. It's just that simple. Education and skills and 'Grumpy Old Walter' mentalities have...
