    You've got a lot more to thank my generation, like all the regulations because of what we did. Besides, back then, people didn't make $100g's pushing buttons, it was all hands on stuff, and even though it was minimum wage, it wasn't "shut up and deal with it", more like, there was nothing better, and that was worth something.

    yeah i was making 85k a year off of 70 hours a week. hazmat placard loads regular basis.

    i worked there 3 years successful 3 years of boosting their safety score still got a clean driving record.

    i was also working out of california where there is high state income taxes to gouge the take home pay. compare that to nevada with NO state income tax easily can save 5k or 6k take home pay a year.

    they was though, very laid back, and nice. atleast to me when i was there.

    Well, those are the old days and that sucks for you that you did all that and most have nothing to show for it today. I'm just glad I can legally make my money, drive my nice cars, enjoy my nice house, and be at home every day getting laid while doing it. I was also smart enough NOT to have kids. I'm enjoying my younger years before I have the crumb snatchers trying to eat in my car. What do you think of my play toy?

    Possibly, but I still enjoy racing the hell out of it. If you have one, I'd recommend getting it super charged by Hennessey Performance.
