  1. I worked at verizon for about 6 months a few years ago... I'm not sure if its changed, but back then I hated it... it was a total "corporate monster" and the goals were always unachievable and you were micromanaged beyond belief. Even if you hit your goals or exceeded them it was never enough and you were constantly being "coached" regardless of how stellar your performance was... They do have a good training program and benefits, I just wasn't a fan of the management system in place. If you're curious about jobs, go to www.jobvent.com This is a great website and has steered me clear of quite a few companies.

    Man Turns Tables On Attempted Robber

    DAYTON, Ohio -- Police said a man acted in self-defense on Saturday when he shot a 24-year-old who tried to rob him at gunpoint.

    "Little did this kid know that this 72-year-old man was a licensed CCW (carrying a concealed weapon) carrier and he produced his own firearm and defended himself because he was in fear of his life," said Sgt. John Sullivan of the Dayton Police Department.

    Sullivan said the 24-year-old cut in front of the 72-year-old in the area of Brooklyn Avenue in Dayton. He said the 24-year-old got out of his vehicle with an assault rifle, pointed it at the 72-year-old and tried to rob him.

    That's when the 72-year-old pulled out his weapon and shot the robber twice, once in the abdomen and once in the arm. The robber is expected to survive his injuries.

    Police didn't expect to file charges against the 72-year-old. They said the attempted robber would face a charge of aggravated robbery.

  3. I find it ironic that there was just a thread dogging Heights, then a few days later... this.

    I'm going to stop talkin shit about Xenia now. Xenia... the city of hospitality.

    :lol: and philly is the city of brotherly love... I think when I was there a couple years ago 5 police officers were shot in a matter of a week

  4. I caught a lil of your browns game, Brady quinn doesn't look that bad he just needs an offensive line to protect him and maybe some better receivers to drop less balls... But thats my observations after only seeing a quarter of the game.

  5. I don't feel so bad for the guy, looks like poetic justice was served

    Wanted Man Crashes Motorcylce

    HUBER HEIGHTS, Ohio -- A Dayton man is in Miami Valley Hospital with serious head injuries after a motorcycle crash Sunday evening in Huber Heights.

    Police said they first spotted 23 year old Scott Finfrock on Old Troy Pike and attempted to pull him over for what they called minor traffic infractions.

    Instead, officers said Finfrock sped away and police did not pursue him.

    But just moments later, authorities said Finfrock, headed eastbound on Taylorsville Road, slammed into the side of a van heading southbound on Brandt Pike.

    Medics on scene said Finfrock, who was not wearing a helmet, suffered extensive head injuries and was taken to Miami Valley Hospital. The two occupants of the van were not injured, according to police.

    Investigators then discovered Finfrock did not have a license, but did have a felony warrant for his arrest stemming from a burglary in Huber Heights.

    As well, Lt. Gerry Gustin added, "The vehicle he [Finfrock] was riding was stolen out of Florida."

    Police said Finfrock will face numerous criminal charges once he recovers from his injuries.

  6. Is it wrong that this makes you laugh? You have to ask? Same thing would have happend if they were on sport bikes, so stop the hating!

    well most sport bikes are about half the curb weight of a HD and since most sport bikes have two disc brakes up front... they might have been able to stop sooner? :D I'll quit hatin on you HD riders, my parents ride harleys and I tease them enough

  7. Is it wrong that this news article makes me laugh? "you don't do tricks' date=' you don't race" or pay any attention, apparently. :lol:[/quote']

    is this what you were referring to?

    “I know some people say they must be up to no good: They were racing or doing something. But anyone who’s familiar with Harley-riding knows you don’t race a Harley, you don’t do tricks on your Harley. You just ride,”

    Can you do much else on a harley? :confused:
