david wild Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 OK you win, I 'll let your union in, I need experienced drivers that can handle half million pound loads, got any, Oh you will train them ??? really, I don't think the insurance company will go for that, have to have passport, we have a bad habit of going overseas, afraid of guns and bullets well that means no middle east for you, don't like MREs, that means no Africa for you, your intestines will be in the toilet if you eat the food down there (mostly) or at least you will come home with a tube in your butt draining the infection. overtime, whats that ??? this is a adventure you should pay us. what do you mean you can't sleep, just cause the clock is 12 hours off means you get to work in your sleep. can't sleep in a airport ?? guess you miss your flight, lay over in Amsterdam, off to the banana bar (every one likes bananas) you stay in and sleep your looking a little worn out and we are just getting started.

Popular Post david wild Posted November 30, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2016 Well I guess you have never stood under the wing of a Antonov 225, the largest plane in the world, and gazed upon the pyramids outside of Cairo, or seen what was once the hanging gardens of Babylon, dipped your toes into the Volta River, smelled the sweet smell of homes being heated with peat moss in Ireland, better yet, Saint Paddys day in Middleton Ireland where they make you guessed it Irsh Whiskey, seen the cliffs of Dover, heard morning prayers in Kuwait City, smelled a herd of camels before you could see them, Been to Bob Marleys house ?? tooled around with the President of Gahana's motorcycle escorts, sailed out on cargo ships and done the pilot boat swap while at sea while under way, been up the Eiffel tower, hung out in Kiev, Aruba, Sweden, France, Holland and the rest, seen the wind mills in Crete, been to the Parthenon, seen and stood where gladiators fought in Greece, and the many more places thanks to my shitty job that I visited and not as a tourist. You really don't know why. You really have led a sheltered life, no wonder such the crappy attitude. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 OK, how 'bout a Vette? No matter what you're driving, how much would it cost to to go around the world? It seems like Mr Wild got paid to do it. I guess other people's money is no object to a liberal...

Ummmm, well, you're not going to be able to get across ANY body of water with a Porsche, so I suggest something a bit more utilitarian..... The final production design was perfected by a few engineers at Yellow Truck & Coach in Pontiac, Michigan. The vehicle was built by Yellow Truck and Coach Co.(GMC Truck and Coach Div. after 1943) at their Pontiac West Assembly Plant and Chevrolet Div. of General Motors Corp. at their St. Louis Truck Assembly Plant. 21,147 were manufactured before production ended in 1945.[6] So it was UNION built. 2 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

TeamsterGrrrl Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I'll match your DUKW and up you a Schwimmwagen: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Schwimmwagen . Apparently some were built by Porsche. And IIRC, all the current Porsche's, including the badge engineered VWs, are union made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
