Why the hell do people with a cart full of groceries go to the self check out? 4 self checkouts and 3 of them had people with 987 items. WTF!

Because the brain dead worthless 'employees' 'have no drive/incentive to go and tell the full carts to not use the 15 items or less self checkout

there is no shame anymore

We are circling the drain

Also because no one standing in line behind them has any spine to say something to the offenders out loud. I have to "correct" people at the waste transfer center frequently that clearly do not give a crap about any of the signage telling people where stuff goes, that they need to empty packaging, flatten boxes, not be a contractor dumping their commercial waste, you name it. The people working there (GFL) so not care one bit. Some people get all sorts of offended and tell me stuff like "you do not work here" to which all I need to do is point to the signage.

I could say more but then...we all already know it.
 
Oh I point it out, but of course you get the death stares or 'mind your biznass' smart remarks....or more thretening tones. had a dude at food lion threaten to shoot me cause I told him to not park in the fire lane. no hesitation to threaten death cause I pointed out his moronic selfish behavior. lacking the abilty for rational thought.

no shame, no care, 100% self centered, and that mentallity is either being imported or is adapiting to what they see
 
I have decided that oil and gas prices aren't a political issue anymore.
There's literally nothing either party can do.
It's a speculator driven market.
Oil and oil companies need to be taken off of the stock markets.

This was 5:12 AM this morning. this is the actual price in trading...... per barrel.

Been there, done that.....you get a cell camera in your face and an instant vocal narrative that is 100% not representative of how the conversation started before the camera was rolling.

I once told a guy he was parked in a fire lane, and he followed me around Lowes calling me "God damn f*ing honkey" for the 15mins I was shopping. Absolutely zero people did anything about it.

I get the frustration, but there is zero reward and 1000% chance that the blow back gets you on the nightly news, or at least makes you internet famous for a few days.

I think it funny that anyone thinks that “either party” has our best interests at heart. Or that there is actually a system of more than one party. 😁

In this digital age, for every action, there is an equal and opposite outcry from a population that knows nothing but what the selectively edited camera clips shows.

That dude was not worth blowing my life up over, he eventually needed a cigarette and whatever was so important he couldn't spend time finding a parking space for, was apparently not that important, because I watched him leave empty handed.

Whats the real fine of running red diesel on road only $1000 bucks? At 1.10 less a gallon we may have to find out.

No its the greater of $1,000 o $10 per gallon of fuel used.
That's the IRS fine - then you have state and DOT fines.

I know a dude who runs a landscape business who got popped in Charlotte and it was just over $32,000 by the time he settled. They took the mileage of the truck, the federal estimated MPG table and determined the total gallons consumed. Then he had to produce receipts for every gallon of diesel he had purchased - and any receipt he couldnt document was assumed to have been offroad. He ended up lawyering up to get down the 32k (though that might have included lawyer fees, cant remember).

Its key to point out here - I said he runs a landscape business. His current truck has a pump tank in the bed....Ive heard there is some NASCAR level fuel hose routing on it now...
