Not going to flame you , your getting enough of that right now. What I would worry about is that this kid is reading these posts and prints them off to show your boss.

ORIGINAL: tga
Under federal guidelines, it's illegal to "punish" or discriminate against employees for things like this........

........Admitting to this "act" on the internet isn't smart. I would let it cool... rapidly.
What you say is true due to our overly litigious society but admitting to the "act" on the internet might have done some good. It got the cow man thinking about his actions that day and eventually righting the situation. And, I'm certain a few others just might act differently in the future, me included.

Our society could use a little more this. As individuals, we usually think we're right and only concerned about ourselves most of the time. Showcasing an individuals actions for all to see and comment on, just might be what our society needs to rid itself of self-centered, thoughtless characters.

it really don't matter what your on, if it was a freakin log, and you were able to make it hover, and could control it through the turns
and enjoy the wind and sun, nuf said?

**** sounds like the kid had a chip on his shoulder already, Butch a good friend of mine had a 1000 sportster that leaked so bad out of the gear shifter shaft that at stop lights it would puddle enough oil that when he took off it would spin the tire and chirp. [sm=laughat.gif]but he did always park on the edge or in the grass when the gang went riding. As far as taking him under the wing and teaching him something what do you think shoveling **** will do, (been there shoveled my share ) [sm=headbang.gif]I would have most likelystarted a converstion with him about where the leaks was comeing from and moved the talking in the direction I wanted it to go.[sm=partyparty.gif] But hey, I'm old but I remember being a young *** to, as I'm sure most of us do Kid could've been handled it better to I think, I mean how would any of yall handled a 20 year old talking that kind **** about your pride and joy, before any one say's it I know that the sporty is his Pride and Joy also but lets face facts he knows it has problems and is going take a while to bring up to snuff if he even has any intention of doing anything might just be a punk, I've met my share! Over all I think Cowracer handled it Ok [sm=lol.gif]

89FLHT is right dude! Settle it there and then in the parking lot. the "f#%k you" should have been replied to with a fist in the chops.

the guy sounds like a total idiot and should be put in his place, so do it, but to his face

hey.....that sounds like a haiku or something

LMFAO
