I'm in direct contact with brokers, rather than working for a company, they evaluate who they do business with using your MC# as your ID. So when one of our guys calls and agrees to a rate/load even without the Rate Confirmation sheet it's basically considered a done deal, and nobody else SHOULD be able to steal it from under you while waiting on paperwork. Unfortunately, some less honorable individuals will agree to a rate, keep shopping for better loads, and then "fall off" the load they agreed to. Once this happens enough times, even if you didn't do it, you're burned because of their behavior.[/QUOTE

I had the displeasure of eating at a Subway today, but not because of the food. I get behind a very, very old gentleman, or at the very least he's seen a hard life...probably both. He's clearly uncomfortable with the situation, probably hasn't frequented places like this much, if at all.

The young guy behind the counter, who would rather be sitting on his arse at home collecting a Covid check, asks the old guy what kind of bread he wants, and not in a very polite manner I might add. The fella has NO idea what bread he can choose and this clearly flusters the man while the kid stands there, doing absolutely NOTHING to help, waiting for the man to make a decision. The older guy is getting a bit more confused as the kid stands there motionless staring at him. I couldn't take it.
PLEASE TELL THE MAN WHAT BREAD YOU HAVE AVAILABLE! The kid doesn't look at me and CONTINUES to stare at the gentleman. At that moment, I saw the bread selection board pasted to the front cooler window and told the fella to make his decision from those choices on the board.

I tell ya', there aren't many things that piss me off more than people disrespecting our older generation. It seriously frosts my ###. I just about jumped over that counter to wring the kid's neck.

Why do we treat our oldest folks the worse? Back when I was in the commercial emergency generator biz, I'd have to visit government subsidized old folks' facilities. You wanna' wake-up call? It's embarrassing how the government spends our money. Really, it is. ####tards, they are.

I'm proud of you. And I appreciate you.

Ok, look.
First. I wouldn't know Mongolian or Hibachi bbq if you delivered it to my house.
I'm a white bread Chinese lover. Rice, hot n spicy chicken, egg rolls, and those fried thingeys with cream cheese in them.
Second, I have no idea where you are. It was my understanding that you were going home to annoy the neighbors and cop some Sheila brownie, (whatever that means).
So, I stand absolved.
Carry on

I won’t be long out of bed myself after the day I had today.

I was planning on finishing the 2nd quest of Legend of Zelda tonight for the first time in 30 years, but I’m too tired to get into that.

Zelda was awesome. The original ones were great.

@Dave_in_AZ was spot on. Pallets and treated 4x4s. Find one of those places that have extra long ones and it won't be so tedious. Slap a coat of white paint on that rascal and BOOM, instant fence.
You're welcome.
T minus 13 minutes until lift off......

That’s a great idea, cut the tops into a picket design, for the little lady. She’ll think that’s just so sweet and romantic. Lol.

They were, although admittedly it lost a bit in the translation.

You cook food on rusty old truck rims? Ah do dahclair..

No, I cook on the coals of the wood I burn. The rusty metal was cleaned with a whire wheel prior to welding. Then the metal was holding the fire. A series of steel bars (in parallel) are welded to support the food above the fire.

Sign at this rest area says to report illegal activities.

So I called and reported Opus for telling big stories, and Okiedokie for not accepting brain washing.
