    Whatever dude, it’s defective. End of story. Safety even told me it was defective. Or needed to be recalibrated. They’ve had it in the shop twice.

    There's no need to work for companies that have all that horse ####. It lets them think it's ok and acceptable and will only make them go farther.

    I've always disliked drivers that whine, "this is all I know how to do",,,come on, such a cop out. Really, all you know how to do? That's a terrible attitude. Bob Dylan said it best, "and you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone, 'cause these times they are a' changin',,,

    The dismissal was warranted. He basically let our enemies know the carrier wasn’t 100%. That was very dumb. I’ll bet he sent it over unsecure email to several people (30 or so) knowing full well that some slime-ball, in the mold of Lt. Col. Vindman, would leak it, and of course to the NYT. He also usurped the chain-of-command. I read his immediate superior was in the office next door to his, but he chose to send out a flame-thrower of an email to a bunch of people not in his chain of command.

    SECNAV made the right call.

    One post results in five pages of discussion concerning everything from truck radar systems to the inner workings of the USN.

    Troll level: Expert :D

    It’s not a secret at Stevens Transport. They’ll tell you that in class. However, they won’t tell you when or where they will monitor you. That part is a secret. It only happened to me once after 4 years of being there.
