That makes it pretty clear Bob, you're more knowledgable regarding your post than any other. That's all I've got to say. I defer to the sidelines waiting for your next reply. Thanks.

HAHA,,,,finally, something to laugh about, thanks.

Hello Joe, wadda ya know? It's been a month to the day since your last post. What decision have you made? I'm in much the same stance you've described. Granted I'm in the southwest, supposedly an even less fluid expedite freight lane than most areas of the country. Just bein' nosey.

Rhetoric is tiresome. Faith is inspiring. Much as it was to those who penned their creators mind. To take the stance to stand for nothing of faith is simply groundless.

It's been said many ways and of many men. You get the most noise from an empty barrel.

As I said, I won't comment. You can continue prove you're mistaken. It doesn't matter. Believe what you will. I know the industry.

Greg I won't go into every detailed remark you've made about the retail meat industry yet I will clue you into this. You're wrong on all counts. I was a retail butcher for well over 30 years, managing many large/upscale markets. As well as a federally licensed meat inspector. I know the meat...

Would the U.S. be a healthier nation with 261 million fewer people straining it's "system"? Granted 10+ million of those folks are undocumented residents. Most of whom had no pre-natal care or childhood immunizations. Could a corridor from our nearest Latin American country directly to Canadian...

There are more to unions than sweatshops or child labor. Although those still exist in 3rd world nations operating under the rule of the US dollar. Much of the freight carried in this country is produced by those nations. Most believe union "boss's" call for a strike. There's nothing farther...

What does any of this have to do with expedited trucking? Of course the day is likely to arrive when those products you buy from a third world manufacturer will be delivered to your local China-Mart via third world expedite drivers. Realize there are more unions operating with company's that...

I'm not aware of their positions. Where does OOIDA, Highway Watch and Truckerbuddy stand on union representation? This much I do know, many of the "join now" posts remind me of the organizing arm of a union.

RE: Is Everyone sick of people tooting their own h At times tooting takes precedence over muting. The lack of tact or too much temerity taint's the value of talent regardless of it's message. Isn't the question really "toot or get off the pot"? If you've a wealth of knowledge offer it up with...

How is it that organized employees under a union contract are different than OOIDA represented employees? It's been said a number of times in this string about joining OOIDA for the benefit of "group" representation. Yet when there's mention of organized men and women under a union banner...

The unions I've worked for far from removed my ability to increase my wages and chance for advancement. Assertiveness is an estranged phrase for many. Yet know this, when you sign on to do a job you sign on to work with, accomodate, advance and promote. In whatever endeavor. Here's a good...

I'm far from brainwashed. That's also as far as I'll go in addressing childish remarks. I've likely more union experience here than most. I can tell you this, there was never a union worker along side me or under my authority that didn't work harder than the foolish I see that settle for less...

Robert you stated that you had been "arrested" twice in the last 13 years. Not that you were convicted. Not that you were charged with a lesser misdemeanor crime. Nor that both charges were dropped. When applying for a DOT commercial license, as well as with a carrier you're asked about tickets...

Stealing dues? Membership dues guarantee so much more than an individual could procur for the wage standard, working conditions, job requirements, health benefits, retirement package, political clout, and legal representation they create. If OOIDA could offer any perks close to what bargaining...

Would you leave the expediting industry if your only means to it's employement were through a union? Excuse me for dropping the focal point of my post. A phone call and the worlds best cup of coffee at the same time disoriented me.
