Remember that doctor that was beaten an dragged off of an overbooked United Airlines flight? Officers fired after removal of United passenger quote:The aviation department, acting on the inspector general's findings, fired the officer "who improperly escalated the incident," the inspector general's office said. The sergeant "involved in the deliberate removal of facts from an employee report" also was terminated, officials said. And the cherry on top of this poo poo sandwich: quote:United conceded the flight was neither overbooked or oversold, despite its initial claims.

oh my god i wish i could shove that in the face of every bootlicking fuckstick that defended the airline/officers til they were blue in the face but it's too late now so that would make me seem like a crazy person, also they seem to be even deeper into their beliefs these days so yeah

Strudel Man posted:...then why on earth was he removed at all? Four united employees wanted/needed to deadhead to the destination city. The employee were not holding paid tickets (which they wouldn't), so the flight was sold to capacity. The whole thing just reinforces why I hate flying and try to drive everywhere if feasible. I enjoy driving and have no problem taking a few days to get where I need to be. The only time I fly these days is if there's an on-site emergency I need to deal with for work.

Going back to non-slip shoe chat. The company people have talked about that offers a kind of insurance policy with their shoes is Shoes For Crews. I know at least when I worked for YUM! Brands (pizza hut, taco bell) the non-slip shoes were required and their cost came out of your paycheck. They had them in like 50 different styles. They would cost about 40 bucks. I still have a pair of knockoff high top non-slip Chuck Taylors. Those shoes are invincible and you will not slip wearing them.

The van IN FRONT of the truck ran the hell out of that red light, and the truck followed. I imagine that guy is going to be paying a bit higher fine than the usual sacrifices to the bridge god. Edit: Oh Jesus, the way he leaves too. Was the truck stolen or something? Did a heist just get ruined?

What's the standard (if there is one) height of trucks that causes people to not worry about the 11foot8 bridge? Is it significant enough that you couldn't just lower the under-bridge road and make it way less likely for trucks to smash into it?

The delivery truck for my work, which is of similar height of that one that just got opened up, is 12' 6". Interstates minimum bridge clearance 14' in urban areas, 16' outside, and overhead signs and pedestrian bridges 17'. iospace has a new favorite as of 05:12 on Oct 18, 2017 |

Of course there are exceptions and no one wants to make a truck exactly fourteen feet tall. Someone goes out and measures it in one of those videos. IIRC it’s nearly 11′ 11″. The sign is conservative. The city can’t lower the road surface at all because there is a sewer line right beneath it.

Most semis are 13' 6". So you have by design 6 inches of space in urban environments. Mind you most cases you aren't dealing with 14' clearance but more than that.

I like how every single time this bridge is posted, someone asks "can't they just raise the bridge or lower the road??" Also something something eating hotdogs

Well, this might seem exceptionally mean-spirited, but gently caress him. General Kelly's son, who was K.I.A., who he has asked before to be not brought up in public, has been utilised as a political talking point by Donnie.
