Exactly...being a professional bum pays well....imagine making 50 bucks a day TAX free and collecting a welfare check?

I realize it doesn't matter...I was refuting what Joe said about the Feds...a border crossing is a Fed responsibility not Mi or Ont...the traffic problems on both side are however and the slowing down of parts does effect the money flow...so it is in all parties interest to get on with this and...

as long as I continue to see help wanted signs and TS short of staff because people don't WANT to work for minimum wage... There IS work out there...most bums CHOSE to be bums...through drug/alcohol abuse...

Problem is too...Manny owns all the land on both sides of the border...where both custom offices sit...even that land way down on Industrial Drive on the Can side... The border (the water way) is Federal territory and ruled...isn't that why the Coast Guard patrols? The Saint Lawrence...

Must be spreading...now 36 hours in the heartland of Indiana...nothing...bout 65 miles east of where you were sitting.

Why, why, why....company policy...is all I know...If I want to sign on with them, then I jump thru whatever hoops they have. If I so chose to invoke my right to ask why and object,,,they too can invoke their right not to sign me on...

Thank You Turtle.... and some drivers get a pet AFTER they are recruited and don't inform the carrier so they can post it on your record... ONCE I've run into a customer that requires US citizenship... My wife was with me then..so she tied me to the fence, whilest she went in to unload...*L*...

Now we disagree....The onus isn't on the customer here...you can't make the customer responsible for every little detail... If I were a carrier there'd be one sure fire method to fix the issue...ya know....it would be..Take that dog for a walk and don't come back.

Mine claims it is an insurance company requirement.... a DOT medical... E-1 does not require a formal safety on a van, not when signed up or ongoing.... And SD does not require a safety or pollution test for plate renewal.

Personally I don't feel for any solo driver that has to deal with this... because that driver put themselves into the situation...They chose to bring the pet. The pet had no say in the matter. The drivers have nothing to complain about..only they are to blame.

So were they just a bunch of friends trashing the government? Having a few brews, talkin of strippers even....where's the intent? Maybe trumped up charges by the feds so Obama can make militias illegal and take your guns..? US takes early lumps in case against Mich. militia - Yahoo! News

Cold hearted? where...I just see people not wanting dogs in a CV/truck....I guess them 7 pounders are alright in a truck but a shepperd or a lab?
