Change is not always easy. It might not only be the prestigious work. I get the same kind of freight that he does. When I have talked with other carriers NONE say that they can keep me at my present income level. Is that true? I have NO idea. I can only go by what they tell me. Competition...

Well, cleaning up the mess on our border, closing it as it should be and taking care of "real" reform will NEVER take place as long as Obama/Biden and most of our congress remain in power. THEY are the problem.

"The best advice I can offer anyone is that with FedEx, it isn't and will never be about you but them and ONLY them." This is likely true of any large carrier, business etc. FDCC being one of those. Everyone should always keep that idea in when working on there business plan.

Sounds good. A straight truck would have to check on the plastic tank thing.

I invest in lead. All different shapes. Some steel too. Again, in several different shapes. All FAR more useful than gold. All assist either in the defense of my family or food production.

They already do this out on the Detroit River. Detroit Police, Border Patrol etc pull fishermen over all the time checking for "papers".

Does DOT allow that boat tank on trucks? How long does that 6 gallon tank run your generator?

As I have said in many other threads, there is only one thing in this world that never changes, that is the fact that every thing is always changing. All it will take for us to move is more money. We are not in this for our health, just our lively hood. You could consider us "free agents"...

Still at the house. Picking up a load tomorrow in Columbus, OH and heading for Austin, TX.

No rose colored glasses. We have always looked at "other options". When I have asked other carriers about rates I could expect none were able to say that they could meet what I made now. Will that change? Most likely. Nothing is static. Part, not all, of what FDCC is doing is getting their...

Nope, you have either a "Prime Minister" or a "Prime Mistress" LOL!! And they sometimes wear funny wigs!!

Reminds me of a book and movie. More forms of control. Freedom lost.

"Shall not be infringed" NOT allowing me to carry when ever, where ever and what ever I want IS infringement. So is doing a background check for purchase or keeping records of what I own. We are either free or not. There is NOTHING in between. I choose freedom. You can accept what ever you...

Why are we fooling around with a "civil war" in Libya? Is if for "humanitarian" reasons? Are there no "humanitarian" needs in Mexico? Why is our border still wide open? Why is our government NOT doing there job and protecting our borders from this mess? Are they open for "political" reasons...

Many do. They are often bothered by police for no reason. In this country we are NO longer considered innocent until proven guilty. We are NO longer are allowed to exercise our Rights. All by a government that is corrupt and driven to do away with our Constitution. People conceal because of...

Michigan's law does not allow a person to carry in a bar where booze is sold. A restaurant that also serves booze is OK. The law itself is wrong. ANY infringement of a Constitutional right is a BAD thing. There is no more dangerous thing than a government. The mail purpose of the Second...

Is there a need for this at all? There are so many units/programs out there, which ones would be taught? What would be the purpose? Higher pay?

Also, as bad as gun violence seems, it is not even close to being a major cause of death in young people. We, as a country, have NO problem ARMING KIDS, not adults, with missiles that weigh well over a ton, that are able to travel at speeds in excess of 100MPH and turning them loose with...

Those "kids" are, unless the US code has be changed, members of the militia. School shootings have NOTHING to do with guns. They have EVERYTHING to do with a total lack of respect for everyone and every body. They are a VERY complicated problem. When my dad was of school age kids used to...

Not only is it the RIGHT of those people to carry, it could also be considered a responsibility to do so. MOST college students in the United States will fall in the age group between 17-45. All natural born, US citizens in that age group, who are NOT on active duty are considered to belong to...
