ANY Thoughts Miloh.?? kc0iv You might want to see your own link, and start with rule #3! :lol: :lol: In this case I'm willing to take the heat. It is one thing which most of us do at one time or another to drift off topic. But to willingly attempt to change the topic because someone can't get a response from their own topic to me is a totally different matter. Let alone just plain rude. kc0iv

But if he WERE serious about "lying" about his unemployment time.... I'm SURE you can relate. And sometimes, it is NOT the worst option. Having elective back surgery, IF it won't affect his ability to drive a truck, is not exactly the same as "doing time." But, in today's industry, the insurance companies are pretty much blind to the difference. After you've BEEN here awhile, you will know when one of the regulars are kidding. And don't forget.... your kids are out there with a bunch of stupid 4wheelers, with cellphones to their ears, and coke up their nose, TOO! And not ONE of them could pass the CDL exam without studying or schooling for a fair amount of time. I THINK you misunderstood the nature of the posts. If so.... I believe Miloh will accept your apology. :wink: If NOT.... I offer you MINE! :lol:

Let alone just plain rude. kc0iv The guy is just a bit frustrated and desperate, and IMHO, showed at least some respect by "chasing down" those whom he thought could help him, and APOLOGIZED for his breach of the rules. Like you said, we are ALL guilty of hijacking at times. As I believe we have just done again! :lol: :lol: I'm sure you KNOW that I wasn't out to "burn your tailfeathers!" I just couldn't resist! :lol: 8)

No Prob
I was clowning about telling something other than the truth, I know that a man's past can't be hid. I just have not had anybody tell me exactly why I;m not getting any responces, I was asking for opinions from the fellas.
I didn't mean to jack anybody up. Sorry to any I offended. Miloh.

(IF he can be considered a real man.) We are not talking politicians who make lying a career, are we? I suppose you think YOU are a "real man" and you have NEVER lied? I doubt it! A real man is someone who realizes that LYING will get you nowhere and will get you NO respect. DO you trust liars???? I shouldnt have asked that question, as you will probably waffle around with some lame excuse, just like our resident lying felon.

Would that those who HAVE legal millions would do more of the same! What a load of horsesh*t! If he felt guilt at all, he wouldnt have broken the law. The fact is , and you all do gooders who always complain about the image trucking, is that he intentionally LIED on his application, just as he intentionally committed his crimes. Spare me the hypocrisy. I see nothing about counterfeiting that poses a security risk to the trucking industry. There are drivers out here with WORSE felony records! It may take TIME to overcome it..... but it is NOT drug dealing, murder, or even embezzlement from a company! More leftist garbage. Lets just evaluate each crime on how it EFFECTS....YOU. Hey, with that mindset, child molesters should get a second chance as long as they didnt molest YOUR kids, right? Apparently, MANY here are too young to remember the doings of both management AND truckers in the early days of the Teamsters! There are more than a FEW "dirty hands" out there driving rigs! And still are, so we should accept everyone , right? I, for one, believe this guy. He's learned his lesson and has a NEW outlook on life. I don't see ANYTHING in the field of trucking that indicates the imperative that we all be the "cream of society!" So why bother even trying. As long as the non-trucking world considers us scumbags, lets just not try to change that image? Good mindset, please dont complain anymore about truckers who run illegal, why bother? MANY of you couldn't even pass the negligible requirements of a SECRET clearance for the government.... which is all that is required to be a Security Guard at a govenment contractor site! A Hazmat endorsement, even under the new Homeland Security Act, is a JOKE! You've got no room to talk! I have room to talk because I have cleared all security clearances. Nice try...keep going. You are going down faster than the Titanic. If being a trucker required a "squeaky clean past," many of you would be working at McDonalds! The fact is.... YOU don't get to make the rules! YOU don't run the mega companies! YOU are just a driver! Apparently, a task that the government feels can be trusted EVEN to an illiterate foreigner! :roll: Not many have a squeeky clean past. But here is the difference I didnt TRY TO HIDE IT. In fact....because I didnt try to HIDE even the most minor of things and was HONEST I got hired for all jobs I've worked. Wow...honesty....theres a novel concept. I don't know just WHAT felonies are acceptable to carriers. I don't HAVE any. And unless you are a recruiter, I doubt that many of YOU know either! Yet, you get on your high horse and criticize ANYONE who doesn't fit your impression of a "good American!" Counterfeiting is akin to THEFT. And once a liar and a thief, always a liar and a thief. As shipper I'd sure trust that person to haul my goods....??? Did anyone ASK the poster if he was a veteran of the military? I have no reason to suspect he is, but.... you'd sing a different tune if he WAS... wouldn't you? No I wouldnt, I could care less if he was or wasnt, it has nothing to do with the offense. But, I suspect you can't even consider that veterans can sometimes become "criminals." And then, again, be rehabilitated. It happens EVERY day! Yes, veterans can become criminals, so can popsicle salesmen. But yes you can become rehabilitated, but is it rehabilitated to be all remorseful of your crimes, and still lie about it to employers. A real man would stand up and admit his errors, probably get more respect too. In your LITTLE minds, he is probably a leftist liberal who lives off the government! Because, of course, upstanding Republicans NEVER make criminal mistakes! :roll: No in my little mind you are the leftist liberal who is trying to make being a LIAR politcally correct. This post is NOT directed specifically at YOU, Inmate! For all I know, you've never had so much as a speeding ticket! But, that doesn't give you the right, under the Constitution, to place yourself ABOVE those who've made mistakes in life, and ANY "implied" right of superiority, is as you say.... a FANTASY! Yes it does, Bill of Rights, Freedom of Speech...maybe you heard about it? Editied to correct spelling of the word punctuation. My eyes are getting older than my "nads."

Sorry Yakman idea for Miloh,
Husband has a bad back. Needed some time off not for surgery but to change occupations. Anyway during that time I went to work and he stayed home with the kids. So one could say quite honestly that he was a stay at home dad with the kids but the budget couldn't handle the single income so you are going back to work. Or anyway you want to color it. The wife's job wasn't paying what your family needed. You got bored and couldn't hack it with the kids( tougher than you thought). Hows that?? Hope that helps. It's not lying. The companies don't come right out and tell you why the postion is suddenly open do they? Job is the pits, hours suck, pay sucks, the people that work here suck and the last guy was sick of it and now we have an opening.

Bullsh!t!!! Real men, if there IS such a thing, LIE all the time!
Liars are no different from thieves, you may subsidize it because "other people do it" I dont.
Consider the example of Bush! (IF he can be considered a real man.)
We are not talking politicians who make lying a career, are we?

Yes it does, Bill of Rights, Freedom of Speech...maybe you heard about it? You might ALSO consider the Declaration of Independence which says, All Men are Created Equal... and that implies a certain "acceptance" of their faults. "For NONE are without sin... no not one," (that's from the Bible.) And.... "people who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones." (That's from contemporary Americana.) You may be PERFECT, Inmate. And if so, I submit that it is YOU who should be on display in the zoo. The REST of us have faults, and we get by the best way we can. INTOLERANCE is the last bastion of the IGNORANT, and the cornerstone of OPPRESSION. YOU can call it "leftist garbage" if that's all you can come up with.... I call it FASCISM. I really HOPE you have a response to this, but I doubt it. But, if you do.... please make it full blown, because.... "IF you're booking passage on the Titanic, there's no sense in going "steerage!" (That's from the MOVIES!) And, BTW.... no offense intended.... and none taken (so far.) I just like a good debate, and you are (at most) a "fair" sparring partner! But, if I were you, I'd keep that LEFT up just a bit, to protect that swollen eye! :lol: HOBO
