Man, you got off lucky. Have you ever seen the movie "Nothing but Trouble"?

Is it anything like "Deliverance"?

So, if you had not gone to work for UPS, what do you see you would be doing (or if retired) or had as a career?

Fireman.

Male dancer but I still practice on the weekends.

Funny, I had you pegged as a sock puppeteer.

Id probably be in prison by now if I hadn't started at UPS when I did.

I had the pleasure of meeting one of these "good old boys" on I-95 when we were heading down to Disney.

I would guess they were not wanting to ask for their package, this was a different type of "roadside conference?"

 

[HardknocksUPSer]

Why? What was so bad about them?

Just curious. thx

Not a place i would want to go to make a career out of, same work less money.

If you took it as if I had a job at fedex and was working there THEN...UPS called, that's not the case, I was called and told to come to fedex on a Tuesday to start working for the first day however on Monday UPS called and asked me to start on Tuesday so I choose UPS

Not anymore. I have State Farm and when I was rear ended they sent out a contractor. My daughter used to work for Farm and Family and they also used contractors.

State Farm's claims department also never heard of BF Goodrich tires and couldn't identify a windshield post if you put their face in it. I don't blame them for hiring some professionals for once since they obviously don't have them internally. They also have a majority of their estimates written by DRP appraisers, so they don't have a need to employ too many of their own. On the other hand, companies like Progressive write all their own estimates, even for DRP shops.

A very expensive one.

 

[trickpony1]

I wonder if the first thing upstate said to the cop was, "Don't you know who I am?".
