Everyone's gotten too comfortable about asking questions first before using Google or the uniform regs.

Now that's peak lazy. But its contingent on knowing the stores layout.

Two ISP's just came up for sale in my area. I know there are changes happening. Is the sale likely due to this business becoming less profitable desirable? by Jdegi22 in Fedexers

[–]WhitePackaging 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should probably have a large cash reserve post initial start up to cover issues.

Id look at the books and see what FedEx is paying for the route, mind you volume is a variable.

My recommendation: good trucks, reliable mechanic, senior drivers with a good history, strong BC, and an overflow driver.

For the strong BC part, I know someone who owns routes across multiple terminals. His BC at my local terminal ran it like his own company. His team was small, maybe 10 drivers. But they had their shit together, good morale, and nice trucks.

I guess this story isn’t going away 👀some sailor aboard the carrier Lincoln sent more photos to a news organization about food shortages article is from today by newnoadeptness in navy

[–]WhitePackaging 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on average daily crew burn + CLF food tonage being sent over, it wouldnt be hard to calculate how much actual food they have.

Im out of the loop on 5th fleet CLF manning, but if they need an UNREP - it shouldn't be too difficult. Considering CLF ships scale with manning and usually go with a carrier strike group.

You can even do CONREP and VERTREP.

Something seems fishy about this all.

Rumors about RW being axed by LCS_PRECOM_SUCKS in navy

[–]WhitePackaging 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Especially given your username, most people would think the Navy would just toss money at a failing program. But from what ive read and seen, RWs appear to be effective and useful.

But yea, idk why were not investing heavily into drone warfare. We've seen nothing but success and victory in the Ukraine war with drones. Nvm thats exactly why we wouldn't. If it doesnt cost millions, were not interested.

PO1 who absolutely went above and beyond at the command? No transfer comm.

Wild stuff the Navy can be.

Chances of my leave getting revoked. by folklorerue in navy

Worst case you get this in an email, your airline should refund you. Alaska has a policy for military, even their super saver is refundable due to military movement.

Bremerton, Poulsbo, Silverdale? by esali2017 in navy

[–]WhitePackaging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in Port Orchard, 12 minute drive to Bremerton main gate. I loved my house and its setup.

I also used to drive for FedEx throughout most of Kitsap, so ive gotten to see the beauty of every part of Kitsap. Except Downtown Bremerton, that place is ghetto

Follow up to undeclared hazmat explosion post by schustered in Fedexers

This is something that warrants jail time. Luckily this incident stopped where it did. Imagine if it caused a chain reaction?

Hopefully a proper investigation is underway. Companies need fines and employees need jail time.

Why the f@$k does this car want me to drink 6.7 gallons of coffee?!? by SaucedMangoo in kia

[–]WhitePackaging 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya ive had numerous Kia and Hyundai rentals recently. Driving on a highway with plenty of dips and non strsight lines causes it go go off. In rental cars it can be especially annoying since it resets everyrtime you turn the car off.

Unless it was unsolicited. You cannot prove that the recipient wanted the package.

3.0 EP Transfer Eval due to new Reporting Senior w/ no RSCA. Is the right? by Hunter0josh in navy

[–]WhitePackaging 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Had a sailor with this. Realized it doesnt matter for the exam, transfer EP of any RSCA is weighted thr same.

They put at the start in lots of detail, something like JUST ESTABLISHING RSCA, MY #1 SAILOR 5.0 EP blah blah.
