Yeah wont be there much longer already have 2 job offers and other interviews. USPS denied me tho lol



Best one was the next day dropping off a package and hearing 2 viciously sounding dogs. But they were probably pissed to be locked in a hot garage.

I dont even open gates anymore or if I see some beware of dog sign I get out asap.

Im not afraid of dogs just not trying to get bit for $16 an hour 😂

It's awful,so many bad owners with no clue at all on how to raise,manage or fulfill a dog. The nitwit next to me walks hers in a baby carriage,and then beside her they have a 110 pound shepherd that gets ZERO away from home exercise and is thrown out in the yard behind an electric fence to bark endlessly. Post Office won't deliver there anymore as he has tried to get in the truck multiple times. Then on my other side I have a 55 year old single,sedentary woman who gets a Springer effin spaniel whose energy levels could never be satisfied by her,so the dog just barks and barks. A holes who can't find human companionship rely on dogs that they humanize, and problems arise. Selfish effin people. Rant over,here anyway.

My experience handling shepherds is that the territorial instincts melt away on a walk. They walk like a dream and have instinctively good manners with other dogs outside their territory on a walk. Of course I've seen many owning them who can't physically handle them and hence aren't comfortable walking them.

I've had 5 Shepherds,still have 2,all with different personalities and temperaments,2 brilliant with dogs and people from the start,1 bad with people and dogs since we brought him home at 8 weeks,1 good with people but choosy with dogs,1 ok with people and dogs. Then we took on a life of leadership,exercise and discipline,and all became great pets,but it can be one helluva challenge. Exercise and discipline,it all starts there.

People think that a fenced is yard is all a dog needs for exercise. Mine gets a 2-3 mi walk every day rain or shine. Else he would be a nut.

Well stupid me lost my drivers license which I realized at TSA pre check. They accepted my other misc cards - including Costco with my photo, and apparently are going to let me on the plane. :oops:
@Kovi I’ll wave when we’re landing in Phoenix. I saw this book yesterday and thought of you.

A fenced yard should almost be a disqualifier. Mine get an hour in the morning,then accompany me during my day and then another hour late afternoon. They wait patiently,knowing the routine and their curiosity/energy will be expressed. It's a lot of work,doing it right,and the more energetic a dog is,the more difficult to satisfy. I have 2 100 pound medium energy German Shepherds that you would never know lived here because they are calm at home,in the yard etc. But UPS and FEDEX know!! LOL

Not sure why they’d need a divorce decree but I just used my drivers license, birth certificate and social security card because my passport was expired. Must be a prerequisite that anyone who administers pre check registrations must be a douchecanoe

My daughter and I are going to St Martin in Dec for my 70th :eek:. I checked my passport in July, and it was due to be renewed in Sept, so I sent it in. I just got it back. It is a good thing to keep an eye on the expire date if you travel out of the USA. I rarely do but am happy I thought of it before it would have been too late

I let mine lapse and sent it in this time last year and got it back within 4 weeks and I didn't pay for expedited processing. I got the card plus passport.

St. Martin is going to be fun! Tropical drinks!

I travel with my card because I never know if I'll get any hassle with an out of state license. I'm lucky in one way that I don't look like I'm 40 (ok well I have 20 days until it is official) but it can be a real pain in the ass if someone thinks my license is fake and it has happened more than once in the last year.
