about some N*gg*r food". Total silence as the rest of us were

What should I do?

No offense but consider this...........

You are asking for opinions about how you treat your employees and
run
your company from a bunch of folks you have never met, know nothing
about and at a boating NG.

Wow.

You are severely underestimating the capabilities of this group.
We're a bunch of regular guys, and gave him good advice.
Maybe he should hire a labor relations consulting firm for the
answer?
Hire a lawyer?
No. He caught us sober, and it paid off for him.
Boaters give good advice, because they're good folks.
So there.

It's okay, Jim, I think he meant BESIDES you and your lover/clone
Harry.

I desperately need a newer truck. My old Nissan with 315,000 miles is
far beyond dead and has now achieved automotive zombie status. She
has no clutch anymore and nothing on her works. However, I always
tell myself, ok, just another couple months. I have not had car
payments in 20 yrs and loathe the idea. Then there is the down
payment which I dont have right now. I wont do payments over $300/
month or for more then 4 yrs so I need a big downpayment. Then there
is insurance on a new vehicle...........OK, I just talked myself into
keeping the zombie for another 6 months.

Look at Craigs list and salvage titles.
