For longest time I notice this shop guy act violent an stuff an thought any min for months , could get bad so I work this bldg at nite an cleaner , don't work place but clean co contract , he only one around now as no other shop guys nite , quit , he listen Pandora trash music as loud as go , bring back bad memories 4 yrs ago work black guy who listen loud Pandora trash an finally I quit Nov an went trapping but couldn't make no money from it , so no witness around an pretty sure this violence I talk about is go strike soon , lucky Tonite as vaccum alleyway mats an he do something as I pretty sure he go trip out , as turn Pandora music loud as go , he know no other shop help so he think he do anything , I say not word him an all can do is ignore an hope start no fights as big , if does I be done as call sheriff an report hr as new superviser is pos joke that took over as old nice boss retire , he out there last winter with cleaner with fogger an rember the cleaner get into word fights an talk about fights an my boss not like him but he retire , so who I talk about , has no license , can't as wife run out work back , way over year, used to , so my question is, anyone know how in the world could u drive with no license a big truck around co parklot an in out shop if no license ? Cause I know this corp or co nationwide is very picky with any cdl stuff , u got have experience work there an pretty picky co , I don't get how u get away this , if I have any problems , I for sure let the co know he drive truck around no license , although only parklot , if on road , it have be huge fine , he got be on drugs is all I think of way act , they have had fights out there in past with drivers fired or what have u an got sent home an cops out there

Coonman just let him know accidents happen on the job all the time. Smile real big when you tell him.

Kick his arse Coonman!

This guy lot bigger me, I good worker an not into fight , I ignore him do job I guess , not let ruin weekend , if say some crap to me ignore an if do something I guess hope I able call law , not like his violent stuff an notice it months ago , I told someone that violence him could blow up in seconds months ago , not like be around metheads or cocaine heads , u see movies all time where someone get murder by someone on cocaine an then , they say I so sorry I didn't mean do it

Iowa has constitutional carry now.

Bust a cap in his (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman), Dave!

Ya carry gun at work ? He maybe does, I couldn't see myself do that , I guess just totaly ignore him , if start stuff , call sheriff, how can u drive a big straight truck without a license , even if on private property an big co think that ok, this place is not but own by corp an all over nation , I don't think that co policy , I like make sure corporate fully aware it, anyway one lady work there nite, they never say thing at all ever hardly an don't actually work them but had been gone for 2 weeks, a lady work cleaner in another area came last week an surprise me with fogger an told me that someone has covid there an so I lucky got vaccinated as it the lady that gone I pretty sure if it true , well this stuff to bad as if trouble , it be like walk out as I wouldn't go back as this shop guy only one around mostly when I there

Maybe he's one of those kinds of people that want to work by themselves and aren't team players. Playing Pandora trash music real loud is probably a sign he doesn't like minorities either.

... y’all hands are promoting violence from what I can tell and aught to be ashamed

I’m headed to bed now but plan to get in here tomorrow and give you some diplomatic advice coonman

if you really want to see this guy suffer, see if you can talk him into going coon trapping with you this fall.

are u kidding some snot like that from bigger town, I suprised there yet as In the bigger town I close to, I consider a farmer an made fun out of , as if ur not from bigger town , your just out , if he start stuff I just gonna talk right back to him an if start stuff , so be it there are laws, if he go take vaccum cleaner an destroy it or mop an bust into PCs because can't hear his Pandora junk turn up all way as good, I guess have call hr in charge in dm as know him, I hate Pandora, as bring back bad memories this job I got after where work at for yrs went out bussiness , an work this metal factory about 7 months an quit, no idea how this place allow loud radios as where work now don't , u would be fired , but had work black guy from Chicago almost every day for months an listen loud Pandora
Music an I decide wait till few days before trapping season open an quit an did, , not to profitable do got another job an after month got job metal factory at now I'm mornings , I look this black guy up on Facebook one day after long while , it was sick,he always stunk an had pics of him on Facebook an gay niteclubs in Chicago with guys dress up like girls an say was have time his life dance at them in his underwear , I rember him b rides work, I couldn't take it nomore , go in restroom , he say I pee like farmer an do it quietly while in urinal next me , I think this factory load with others like him an got job thru temp agency

I apologize. I didn't intend to open Pandora's box. Hopefully, Savell will come up with an equitable solution to your latest problem in the morning.

Cliff hanger!!!!

Bodine Electric
Camso
AY McDonald
Hormel
Crown cork and seal
are all hiring for more than you make now with benefits.
I'm sure they're not nearly as exciting as your jobs now though.

So this gay black dude that listens to loud Pandora music came into the bathroom and went to the urinal right next to you, leaned over, and told you you pee like a farmer? OK yeah, that would freak me out too if I were you, LOL

I'm sorry.... Usually I can decipher and laugh but what is going on here?

Its not illegal to drive on private property without a license. Its only a regulation violation if its done on a public right of way.

Just wait till he turns on Spotify.

LOL, not quite sure what is going on in Dave's life. But it does sound interesting to say the least.

I thought I was bad for screw around lil nite job esoecslly on Fri , on ph, other job, u be gone home if caught, so I take few min break an wow a $30 some hr tech an what has done since been here in last hh, send text messages an turn up Pandora music trash by tool box , jeez , knows hard replace , I hate Pandora junk, bad memories other job an neighbors clear back when in duplex at 3 am on work nite, they used beat on wall hammer an rip me off water bill , pay them as 1 meter duplex an not pay bill an get disconnect notice , Pandora music loud gets me hot temper

... that’s a tough one for sure... a gay, smelly, pecker gazin colored hand . I hadn’t come across that exact critter yet myself, but you got the odds in your favor in the outhouse for sure since he’ll have his britches undone and halfway down already I’d imagine.

What you’re gonna want to do is, stash you one of those 3 foot fiberglass cb radio antennas from the side mirror of a 93 ram Cummins dually next to the urinal ... when he looks over at your Vienna sausage.... jerk them britches the rest of the way down with your left hand while snatchin up that cb antenna with your right ( one smooth motion now) .... being he’s queer he’ll likely instinctively turn his back to you...and that’s when you commence to whippin the hide right off his dancin butt!!!

So you do know there's like... country music on Pandora right ? Just sayin

Savell, again with the sage wisdom that never fails.

Perfection, but the fella might take a liking to it and follow more closely for a second round next time.

Something something scared of a gay black guy something something vendetta against Pandora for some reason something something still don't like his job

Nonsense. Like real country? Or that Sam Hunt fella?

That’s what I picked up.


I’d offer him a chance to apply for the job I posted, but I don’t hire racists.

Like idk I don't list to country that much olde stuff sounds like 3min of what I read on here alot and the new stuff is Jesus pickup truck and idk.

The sad thing is this is happening at the afternoon job that he liked.... up until now. So I don't know what to make of his issues but I never really have.
Savell with a heck of a response, might be his best one yet.

Coonman there is a job fair Sept. 21st and the Diamond Jo Casino in the conference room. There will be 20 or so different employers there.
I just read an ad for Klauer metals and they have a part time utility helper job paying $17 to $20 an hour.
Go to the job fair and see what's out there.

"Do All Farmers Pee on Their Combine/Tractor Tires?

I grew up on a corn/bean farm in Iowa and my dad would not only hide behind the machinery to water the horse, but he would always go on the tire. Of course imitating him, I did the same.

It wasn't until today that I saw a painting of two boys peeing on the wheel of an old Oliver and realized this could actually be a common practice."

You tell him this is how its done in Iowa!

That's about as much as I got out of it. Guy really seems intuned to crotch action. Remember when he was in a Dennys and a Mexican or black guy was threatening him because of his big bulge?

I'm just saying it's gay folk fight a lot harder than ya think, seen it tooo many times

The viciousness of a woman and the strength of a man.

Can someone clue me into what is Pandora music

Wow, Savell's response is on tune like always. LOL.

Music streaming app for phones. Can listen to anything, I like to play bluegrass and classical music while working in the fur shed.

Can't believe a coon trapper is afraid of a single, big, black guy listening to Pandora music. What is this world coming to?

Yeah he is missing the key to the meat market for coon carcasses.

Dave, make sure you cut all the glands out and leave a paw with fur on it.

$10 for smalls, $15 for bigs.

Someone should document the wisdom of Mr. Savell. I reckon it would be on the New York Times best selling list. Lol.

You literally can't make this stuff up....unbelievable !!!!!!

Savells answer was the funniest thing I ever read.....anywhere. "He will already have his back to you" Im still howling.

These threads are the best.

I was lucky Tonite an stay clear him but painstaking steps, I really parnoid he gonna try stuff sometime, I sure never gave chance use it but how big an how expensive or legal to carry mace in pocket ? How effective ? I sure never have chance get out if something happen but better nothing , at truckstop close at nite, I see guts walk in with open carry or huge knifes in holster

Savells answer was the funniest thing I ever read.....anywhere. "He will already have his back to you" Im still howling.

For as far as appt klauers , that where talk about black guy 4 yrs ago Pandora music not stand , the job posted would not easy given away , thru union, u serve apprenticeship seddonna, how I know is 4 yrs ago I drive clear there , 19 Miles one way thru rush hr traffic an tons lites an hills for 7.5 months an work klauers for $11.14 hr, they pay $14 now, I hated work there , gave week notice an had job line up in few weeks quit , in early Nov , it have pay $20 plus hr drive thru that crap everday , they made 2 fat black girls from Rockford permant who did nothing but yak an not me an they got $2 a hr more , the owner serve lot time in prison for auto theft an drugs, it a real crap hole in ground , fags work there an rough stuff

Savell should get in the comic strip business. I have a feeling that he could make a killing in that business.

You need to research Iowa laws on “mace”. If legal get capstun. It is the good stuff, but doesn’t work on everyone. You are better off just avoiding confrontation and going home and watching the Cubs lose to the Phillies. Situational awareness is your friend.

Please don’t carry a gun or knife unless you are properly trained and practice. Also please know the laws.

Best for you to avoid all situations, since most are in your mind and not actually life threatening.


Take care Dave

You are making that up right?

I would love to hear your definition of what “rush hr traffic” is! How long did it take you to go 19 miles through rush hour traffic?

Take care,Dave. Have a good night.

Get a can of wasp and hornet spray. Some of the stuff can shoot a long ways. Plus its perfectly legal.

No matter what you decide to do or use, remember to never use anything that you don't want taken away from you and have it shoved up your _ _ _ !

So if you carry a baseball bat in your car, be sure to have a baseball and baseball glove also. Your defense attorney will thank you.

It is Dubuque Iowa, nothing but casual driving in that town to most folks. Des Moines may have traffic problems with all the combined suburb towns. Definitely not Dubuque.

Not really understanding Coonman's gibberish. I can verify lots of lights and traffic on U.S. 20 since Dubuque is squeezed between the Mississippi and the hills. I remember more lights on Business U.S. 20 ( State Street) in Rockford where fat black girls come from.

Yes mace is same wasp spray I heard, look for something small that fit pants pocket, probly worthless idea but better nothing

Coonman tell them how traffic from 151, 11, and 20 all get squeeezed through that bottleneck bridge over the Mississippi through Dubuque.

Wasp spray is not the same as mace

151 &61, goes over wisc bridge, tri state area, 20 east goes to coast an run other roads, go Chicago, until Freeport , it narrow, curvy, hilly, road shot, if u like scenery , that all good for, that town not made handle amount traffic get main roads, hh at rush hour thru city on main roads, try hit few lites green, never happens, , worse hills in state , I can think some awful steep ones, hard, trans, clutch, brakes, it got be worse drive in the state

So, a two hour commute?

19 Miles to work each way is NOTHING! My dad and Uncle each drove 35 Miles to work , each way ( 70 miles round trip ) 6 days, and many weeks it was 7 days a week., 37 YEARS at the same job. Lots of overtime. And it was HARD WORK !

Why do you complain so much about your job ? If it is so bad, go back to School ; and get a Bachelor's Degree or a Masters Degree in Business Administration, or Accounting,

You got 40 more years of work to do, before you can retire at age 100 !

They got bypasses in Des Moines. Is there a hill there? Des Moines river. More like a creek.

Yup. 35 miles one way is nothing.

I don't do pandora, but I would have to suspect that it's not really country.
Pop with a drawl doesn't (don't) equal country.

Looks like a 20 minute drive at best.

Nah, you can get real country. All about how you search and what station you pick.

Coonman didn't even tell you the whole story. You got Milwaukee and Madtown traffic comming down 151. You got Milwaukee, Beloit and Janesville traffic coming down 11. You got Cedar Rapids traffic coming up 151 and Waterloo traffic coming in from the west on 20. Then there is the Casino traffic. Don't get me started about those windmills coming in on 11.

Sounds like a pain. Maybe a 34 minute commute.



I know people who would pay top dollar for a 34 minute one way commute.

MapQuest says 25 minutes from your town to klauer. It is 19 miles. You already worked there so they probably won't hire you again so that doesn't matter. The job is advertised for 18 to 20 an hour on access Dubuque jobs. Now I saw on the map directions that you're right next to peosta. There are numerous jobs there and on that end of Dubuque. Of course they'll expect you to not whine so there's that. Probably don't want you to be racist either. From a long ago post is the afternoon job at the garbage company? You know you can ask the cleaning company you work for another assignment if this one's bothering you so much

Coonman, you got yourself a vacuum cleaner.. if he comes to close just give him a good ol whack across the head.. He'll leave you alone. Your a trapper right? An't fraid o nottin!!

If he doesn't have any plates on the truck you can make some for him with cardboard, colored markers, and glitter. Just tell him you didn't wana see him get pulled over for not having plates. You can even write "coonman" on the plates. Not a single sheriff will pull him over.

Is this Savell's competition? LOL. It's not quite as good as Savell but close.

I'm not even competition for that fella, that's THE Savell.

OK, got it.

Yes u are exactly right, 25 min , at nite alot more if at 330 in rush hr, 45 min, an 19 Miles one way is plenty, u figgure out in years do it an wear an tear, most I would go, I am sure they hire me again if I wanted to but don't , I never walk out an quit, or got fired, gave advance notice an did ok work, I wouldn't try there again though , all time an tinny metal u handle, easier than what do now other place, no idea how they allow crazy radios all over turn up as loud as go, not something I into listen to first thing in morning , after that black guy months there , every day, I absolutely hate any Pandora music, bad memories , they have union is why it allow, actually I think union a lil less money an more benifits, more holidays, I rember drive clear there 1 morning in Oct an superviser rush over an say, hey , u can't be here , u got leave an call sedonna now, so went home an sedonna rep say, I forgot tell u that u work there to long as temp , union say have be full time after so many hrs, so u take day off an start tomma there new temp , should told shove it an quit in spot instead drive there on Mon morning for nothing

Some problems u have at work, I pretty sure are other employees that find out ur into trapping , u don't let noone know an they find out, I postive this true, some guys it be alright with as know how get along better but maybe not in sone cases , u don't have to say ur into trapping, they find out it, yesterday had girl for partner at factory job an so I did all work an she couldn't even handle the last stage of 4 stage press, had watch everthing she did constantly like a 2 yr old kid, she out part in crate or at least try to, that help me, so I don't know if retarded or possibly old drug burn out but found out she got hired other day an permant with co, probly raise, that who they wanna hire , not really like all noisy personal questions about ask where live an house an what in house ? It annoying try do all work fast an someone keep get in lasar curtain an try do all work, this stuff is pathetic

you should apply for a government job.

just sayin'

Just know that if you stick a big can of mace or bee spray in your front pocket that big Ole gay guy will really take a liking to you

Dave, I see a lucrative future for you managing Biden's teleprompter

I don't think I've ever had a real job closer to me than 20 miles, lol.

BEST advice, yet!

I will talk to anyone who will listen about trapping, heck some who don’t want to listen.

I say we do a poll.

I am currently 11 miles from my work.

My new house will be 17 miles, so pretty close to 20.

"Commuting costs Americans over $16 billion annually in time, fuel, and maintenance. Americans spend 489 million hours driving 14.5 billion miles to and from work each year. The cost of commuting disproportionately affects low-income workers. People with lower incomes drive farther to work and spend more out of pocket."

I'm currently working 6 hours from home, that's been pretty close to the average for the last 20 years.

So they hired her full time and gave her a raise. Does that tell you anything?

38 miles one way commute for me. Time varies quite a bit. Involves crossing a mountain.

45min from my job like 30 miles not too bad

I don't get it, companies don't always hire best workers an depend who u are

It's a conspiracy

Found a JOB for you !!!


I am sure you will just LOVE IT THERE!!! I hear it gets really warm in the Summer up there !

Oh, heck, I am more qualified for that job , than Coonman220 !!

Amazes me how long these threads go

Gotta be one of the funniest coonman classic threads yet.

Think wolfdog should archive it!

Ok, I do agree with that and at times it does happen. With the current job market why do you stay. You need to move on and go somewhere you can make more and hopefully be happier. It's obvious you're not happy there.
Did you hear anything from Bodine?

I wish you the best and good luck.

Will there ever come a day when our ol' friend coonman220 doesn't have some type of trauma/ drama in his life?

He's a great guy, but he sure seems to find the "bad" in everything or anyone, whether its real or imagined.

So this whole ordeal is about a dude that's done nothing to you except listen to Pandora loud? On midnight shift alone, except for the janitor (you) there? You sound special

Canvasback, what did White17 ever do to you near that bad?

White17 is a good guy. I was just trying to bring some humor to these Coonman220 threads !! LOL

If you can't see the humor in Coon's threads, you have no sense of humor !!

Yep my favorite posts. Especially when Savell shows up lol.

I just think I hope only 10 more months this stuff an survive it an somehow live off ss an work pt somewhere

I hope you do retire and it it everything you have always wanted.

I hope the only work you have, is finding things to complain and whine about.

I really do hope you find happiness one day Dave.

The sad part is if he signs up in 10 mos it will slowly get worse.

Needs a new vehicle, the house isn't paid for, and when he turns 65 Medicare premiums will take 25 to 30 percent of his SS check.

Not good , I don't know unless something change , medicare is $155 mo I think

Not to mention that if it comes true that Medicare runs out of money, what happens to Medicare then ?

Medicare trustees project hospital fund to run out in 2026

And then there is the Social Security trust Fund .

Thanks to the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic last year, the Social Security trust fund will run out of money by 2034, according to an annual government report published Tuesday. That is one year sooner than was expected last year.

So, what does this all mean ???

When Social Security goes belly up, they will end up cutting payments about 25 %

Medicare premiums will rise , to make up for the lost revenue, to pay out the Medicare claims

So, whatever you expect to get per month, anticipate a 25 % reduction when Social Security goes broke, AND an increase in the money they take out of the Social Security check each month , when they raise the Medicare premium.


A quick example.

Assume you get $1100 a Month. Subtract the $155.00 Medicare Monthly premium. That leaves $945 a Month. But, if they take 25 % off the $1,100, That leaves $825 a Month. Subtract $155 a Month, and that leave you with just $670 a Month. This doesn't take into account how much the Medicare premium will rise , if Medicare goes broke.

I look up, in notes I had , $148 for Medicare at 65

You do realize Medicare has deductibles and pays 80% of your bill unless you buy a suppliment?

You have to ask yourself, can I live on 10,000 a year if you can't work anymore.

https://medicareguide.com/supplemental-insurance-with-medicare-150407

Read this.

Don't forget another 30 dollars for part D unless you don't want drug coverage.

Check out your State QMB program. That might cover all your Medicare expenses

That can be free with just a small copay for each prescription with the Medicare Part D Extra Help.

So find out happen come up , avoidance an now pH in room I clock in on is busted an have go another room , I sucpicious why broke , 2 pH upstairs I use , room pH in that broken well not be fix notice soon as noone use , if say something I say that only way I get pay is clock in n out from pH line in bldg got be an do it for 6 yrs, so I thought go start stuff , I not put up it, if does I tell him I call law an he can talk about his problems them

Is that even legal to have someone turn a big radio up all way in workplace ? This stuff ridiculous in shop, fortunately lot time I not next to it but it sounds like a band in bar or at concert, like a attack or something, reminds me this factory where work with bad experience with blacks an huge radios be allow factory turn all way up, , very annoying , I can't see how this stuff legal in labor laws even , I can't stand it or even do anything right hardly be around it , very rude , so not pick up trash he throw park lot an done lock gate as dangerous park road at nite, really hassale

Did you go to the job fair on the 21st? I'm sure you didn't. Just think this is the job you said you liked so well and you didn't want to work full time because of it. No one will ever understand your thinking but I wish you the best.

Loud music is the DEVIL!

Not sure if I understand it. But I think it's a good meme.

Just wait till the black guy starts dancing!
