    Your professionalism will be tested in many ways. Saying effe it and walking away.

    Sometimes should be mumbled and not heard.....

    I had that problem many times when I hauled pigs. I've been around pigs my entire life, I know how to handle them properly. But at the kill plants there was always people watching you and telling you how you are doing it wrong but not willing to come in the trailer and help when that is what you really need. Lost my composure more than a few times and realized quickly I needed to dial it down or risk being kicked out and banned. Not always easy to do,

    Have you ever had those compassionate thoughts...Hollywood movie style, when being fed up with the animal inevitable slaughter, you would just want to let them go...somewhere in the middle of nowhere...let them loose and free. They would scatter around and go on with their animal life. Would that be all right? Or would they just die anyhow, incapable of living in the wild?

    sometimes the dip ####s that cause problems need to hear about it. so what you get banned from a place or a broker. plenty more places to go and money to make... if they had an efficient process and didnt cause problems, they wouldnt hear bad things about them. pretty simple concept actually. i been banned as a company driver and an owner op. dont regret it one bit and would do it again.

    They would probably die. They have always had food and water and shelter 24/7. Might make it for a while but depending on location I doubt it. Could you survive in the wild with nothing?
