You wish to group us two "women" together, got a feeling you've been walked all over by them, most if not all of your life. Have a problem with women not being bare foot, pregnant and in the kitchen their whole lives?

So you are under the impression that any male who dare to attack you for your stands on issues or outlook on life mean that all women are being attack?

Thank god you and Firefly do not stand in for all women thank god!!!!

My wife was a very high level bureaucrat for the state of MI with a Phd compare to my BSEE and except for her sex I do not see her sharing anything with either you or Firefly.

No I would have problems with anyone male or female who think that a paycheck is the only motivator for an employee to do his or her job.

You're an idiot. Who said I "need" to get the job done, only as an owner...

Sad sad sad outlook on life................

If the employees do the absolute minimum to get paychecks and feel no obligations to go beyond that the likelihood of that firm surviving to keep giving out paychecks in not high.

In fact most large companies are public companies with no one owner and in the case of the NYLBRR that was another step removed as it was a company jointly own by two other railroads and the CNJ and the PC.

You forgot to add, and keep promoting and rewarding them for their efforts

Why would he do that as they will just keep doing the absolute minimum to get the paycheck and feel no obligations to get their jobs done beyond that point?

Hawkeye be sure to pay them the minimum you can get away with as Found Soul had stated you just plug in someone else if needed as they will not feel any obligation to get their jobs done beyond that paycheck in any case.

Nonsense but it must be nice for you to be able to drive only when you are feeling your very best...............

Let see no driving when you have the flu, no driving when you are having your period, no driving when you had have an emotional fight with someone you care about and on and on and on.

The highways are going to be as empty of traffic as it was in Miami Dade county right after hurricane Andrew hit everyday of the week.

I find the word "dear" to be condescending. You're only 14 years older than me, consequently not old enough to be my Father, so keep dear in your pockets.

This is a (very creepy) tactic BillRM uses all the time, particularly when dealing with Firefly. It's symptomatic of the thrill he gets when he thinks he's intimidating women.

Best to ignore it,(and him,) he's just a pathetic inadequate.

Officers arrest 605 drunk driving suspects during statewide campaign
Sept. 5, 2012

Minnesota law enforcement officers have arrested 605 drunk drivers two weekends into a statewide driving while under the influence (DWI) enforcement campaign, according to the Department of Public Safety (DPS) Office of Traffic Safety preliminary reports.

The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement campaign runs through Labor Day. State officials urge Minnesotans to plan ahead for a sober ride to avoid the dangers and harsh consequences of a DWI

A similar DWI crackdown to close out summer in 2011 resulted in 1,787 DWI arrests.

“There is no excuse for drunk driving, but far too often, people find an excuse and find themselves in serious trouble,” said Lt. Eric Roeske of the state patrol. “Close out the end of the summer safely by having a safe and sober ride arranged in advance of celebrating.”

During the past five years, 2007-2011, 651 people were killed in Minnesota drunk driving crashes, accounting for one-third of the state’s 2,165 total road deaths.

Officials say that the 34 percent reduction in drunk driving deaths from five years ago points to motorists making smart plans for a sober ride and the effectiveness of enhanced enforcement and education campaigns.

In 2011, 29,257 motorists were arrested for DWI, the average alcohol-concentration of an offender was 0.16. One in seven Minnesota drivers have a DWI on record.

A DWI offense can result in loss of license for up to a year, thousands in costs and possible jail time. Repeat DWI offenders, as well as first-time offenders arrested at 0.16 and above alcohol-concentration level, must use ignition interlock in order to regain legal driving privileges, or face at least one year without a driver’s license.

Offenders with three or more offenses are required to use interlock for three to six years, or they will never regain driving privileges.

The guy's a glutton for punishment, I guess.

Bill is a liberal, so we don 't usually agree,
but he deserves credit for having the courage of his convictions.

You're right. Not many people would be brave enough to anonymously post such stuff on the internet.

@izzythepush,

BillRM doesn't have the "courage of his convictions," he's just too dumb and stubborn to admit, or even recognize, when he's wrong--and he never knows when to shut up.

Given the creepiness about himself that he reveals, it's a good thing, for him, that he remains anonymous.

@firefly,

My my what a cash cow for the state and somehow those drunk driving figures are likely anyone who have any detectable amount of alcohol in any driver body involved in a crash that cause a death.

Bet also there was no drops in the overall accident deaths numbers in that state either.

Now back to the cash cow let guess that the state get 3,000 dollars one way or another for every DUI arrested that mean that they are pulling in 90 millions a year.

Footnote given all the side informations I had reveal about myself on this website anyone who wish bad enough could surely find who I am in the off line world.

The only one here who had not taken such a risk is you Firefly being very careful not to reveal any IDing informations of any kind.

How come you overlook the fact that they are apprehending drunk drivers--and not just those with a .08 BAC? And, if the state pulls in a good chunk of change that way, it's a win-win situation.

Boy, you really enjoy showing off your stupidity, don't you? There was a considerable drop in the number of drunk driving deaths in the past 5 years. Don't you think that would likely reduce the number of over-all deaths from motor vehicle accidents?

No, they aren't saying these are alcohol-related, they are calling them "drunk driving" crashes.

Why aren't you happy to see that there has been a substantial reduction in drunk driving deaths in Minnesota in the past 5 years? Isn't that good news?

Or are you too stupidly stubborn to admit that enhanced education, and enhanced law enforcement campaigns--and a legal BAC limit of .08--works to reduce the number of drunk driving deaths?

Call it a sin tax. I'm OK with that.

If you don't want to pay the tax, then don't drive around drunk endangering everyone else on the road.

@BillRM,

You're a sexist creep.. Just admit it.

You don't listen, you don't learn and you don't get it, none of it.

You don't drive if you feel and know that you are going to vomit, your case is stupid, you can't even see the woods from the trees..

And, Hawkeye stated he "would" pay someone more and encourage them to Management, selective hearing?

You didn't answer me either, third time, but on the last note, so how much money did you get Bill ? From your ex-employer and what did you do with it?
