    If I thought I could of gotten away with it I would of dropped him on the floor.

    There is a lady that works in the office she is disabled one of her arms doesn’t really work well and she’s like 80 pounds. A month ago she told me that our fat pig of a boss who probably weighs 350 got mad at her and slammed his arm on the wall right above her and she was on the verge of crying as she’s telling me this.

    That was on my mind when I was I was in the office. I’m as tall as him but a good 125 lbs lighter and I’m retired military so confident in my skills to give this fat pig a beat down and really wanted to do so but I knew better that it would of led to me being in handcuffs. So I just dropped the keys and fuelman card right at his feet and looked him square in the eye and he definitely had fear in his eyes.

    So while you compare me to your 14 year old son truth be told I’m anything but. Just old and wise enough to know that if that type of revenge is to be had it would have to be without witnesses and certainly would never be spoken of online.

    How can it only be activated during an incident? Think about it, if it was only activated during an incident it would just capture maybe the moment of the accident or right after. It's filming you 100% of the time, doing more than just snapping pics of you

    Like what Zvar said

    yeah, thanks. i did do a google search, and found out about con-way.

    i just thought it was a conglomeration of Red Star, Reddway (SP?), GlenMoore, and a few other long gone LTL companies

    ...and if you remember, ConWay/CCX was an offshoot of Consolidated Freightways.
