You have a radar set. You have a chartplotter. They are separate
instruments. You are familiar enough with the capabilities of your radar
set to guesstimate how far away the birds are...and when you look at
your chartplotter, you see the depths or marked contour curves or both.

You have a radar set. You are really familiar with your area, so when
the set says "birds," you know by looking at the monitor where the area
is, and you know the water depth there is 10-12 feet at low tide, or
whatever. Got the picture?
There are more possibilities, but I don't want you to fry your brain.
Since you are NOT a boater, and never were a serious fishermen, you
ought not to make comments that so clearly show you don't know your butt
from a hole in the ground, eh?
*Who* has the radar set?

The charter boat he goes out on that's who, he comes here with more of
his lies & pretends all sorts of boats are his, he's just a lying scum
been caught so many times it doesn't matter.
Did you see where the unions are now doing their best to bring GM down??
& all the while Krause & this 40 friends are still playing around with
their "corporate" toys???
Always remember he's posted the pay rates the soon to be unemployed
unionists are fleeced to sustain, not for profit unions?? come on the
Krauses always lie their way into someone else's property:-)

Your Krause lie for the day is the one where he pretends Ullico the
union thug pension fund is actually "his" business, when in reality it's
where he works:-) But the interesting thing here is get a go of how they
spend hard working unionists' money on themselves!!!
I'm not wondering if the liar Krause won't come back & tell us this is a
lie just so unionists' don't twig to what a rip off he & his mates a-)
We have first-class benefits, including a top-of-the-line health
insurance plan, a non-contributory defined-benefit pension plan, a
401k,
and a life insurance policy equal to annual salary. We contribute a
share of profits to the 401k on behalf of the employee. Our
employees
pay $4.50 for generic prescriptions and $8.00 for non-generics, but
that's going up next year to $10 and $15. New employees get two
weeks
vacation the first year, and that goes to three weeks the third
year. In
addition, we have 12 paid holidays and we shut down from noon on
Christmas eve to the day after New Year's Day. We also provide 20
days
of paid sick leave a year. And we have an outside company
administering
pre-tax flexible bennies for our employees.
Our fringe benefit package follows the trade union model,
except, of
course, for the profit contributions to 401k's. Trade unions are
not-for-profit enterprises.
How do these compare to the bennies at your shop?
Paid? Every year? I call "bull****". With 3 weeks vacation, 12
paid
holidays, and 20 paid sick days that's 47 *paid* days off every
year. Are
they hourly employees? For a "small business", that's the road to
bankruptcy.
Boy...and you had me going there for a minute.
Not quite so simple, though you are trying hard to make it so. Our
business is up because we're on the cusp of an election year. Our
business always goes up in a major election year.
You could say we're going to be doing very well in 2004 because
Bush is
such a total failure.
The 20 paid sick days aren't part of the "paid" days off unless
those
days are used. None of our people abuses sick leave. In fact, no
one as
yet has even come close to using 20 sick days in one year. They're
there
in case they're needed.
Oh, I forgot. We also provide everyone with LTD.
The company provides an insurance plan that pays 50% of an
employe's
salary for Long Term Disability. Employes have the option of
purchasing
an additional 16.66%, bringing their total to 66.66%. The basic
benefit
maximum is $4,000 per month. With the buy up, the limit is
increased to
$10,000 per month.
