    Even blue Dickies from Wal-Mart like my father wore to work probably since long before I was born would be a huge improvement over how the “new breed” usually presents themselves.

    Agreed.
    The ROI for these companies ain't there.
    Having to commission tent makers to make company shirts isn't cost effective.

    Just say'n.

    Hell he came in the house and drank like a whale , took a nap , Ate a bowl of food , took another nap and then was pestering me to let him back out but I made him stay in for the night.
    He was outside most of the day yesterday and again this morning .
    He's lost a lot of weight and is shedding like crazy but I suppose being locked in a 100 plus degree shed with no food or water for 7 days has that effect lol.
    Maybe he was a green beret or navy seal in his previous life cause he has very tough constitution.

    Hopefully things work out for you with Hummer. You've been through enough BS and wrong doing from your previous 3 employers, that you deserve a good company to ride out out until retirement.

    I appreciate it and I have a good feeling about hummer , especially after the phone interview I had with them yesterday where they layed out they're expectations of me and mine of them ..it was after that we agreed to proceed .
    As for as my last 3 employers let's just say that I've learned trucking companies tend to change the rules as it suits them and talk out of both sides of theyre mouth .
    I know of 3 people at Morehouse that are very unhappy and 1 at fcc that isn't exactly happy either .
    Everything happens for a reason and I wouldn't go back to any of them .
