Polar Bears is right!!!

[unstable bob gable]

Polar Bears is right to want to get out of this f'n state. It makes no sense to me...I get out of work last night at 11 pm. In no time I'm stuck in traffic on the Parkway. After 11 pm on a Tuesday night. Where the hell are people going to or coming from at that hour? Then I want to get a milkshake at Sonic in Edison. Pull in around 11:45 pm. Drive through line is around the building and parking spots are filled with ricers. Everybody hanging out like it's a Saturday afternoon, but it's almost midnight on a Tuesday. I'd like to know where people get all this disposable time from. Guess no one works anymore or has to punch a clock. Rush hour in this state is 24/7 and driving isn't an enjoyable thing anymore Dooshbags in Rav4s and their twins think they own the fast lane. Turn signals are extinct and police enforcement is non existent. I have another year to go until I'm vested on my job then I might look to pack it in. If I have to work another 10 years I'd rather do it where they roll up the sidewalks at 10 pm.

You're where I am 3 years ago, lol.
High taxes, too many people, no consideration for others. Along with too many people there are too many buildings going up, farm land/forest is disappearing, everything is being paved.

Laws upon laws, then more laws for good measure. How about the Constitution and the B.O.R.? Nope, in NJ they don't gave a F about that so owning a firearm is actually ILLEGAL, except in these specific circumstances and places. God FORBID you actually have to use ANY weapon to defend yourself, since you don't actually live in Free America. If you have to use a weapon to defend yourself, you are guilty until you prove your innocence. Oh you live in another state and they allow you to actually exercise your natural rights and you got pulled over in NJ, sorry you go to jail since it's too dangerous to carry a loaded firearm in this state because criminals actually follow the laws and they never let people with multiple firearms offenses out on bail/ his/her own recognizance.
You need the police to show up at your house and do something? You have to wait at least an hour, when seconds count police are only HOURS away.

You want to change the faucets in your house? You have to ask permission to do that. Oh, you don't really own your property since you have to pay rent on it, a crushing amount of rent, so once you pay that mortgage your rent is high enough that you better have plenty of income besides SS, especially since you may not get it. But if you didn't work most of your life you get disability and/or Social security though, so it's better to have been a lazy F your whole life.

You need to go to the store just a few miles away? Forget a quick run and turn around, it's a half hour minimum since no one actually goes the speed limits. Oh I finally got up to 40, the speed limit on 33, nope some a-hole couldn't wait another 5 seconds for you to to drive past and they pull out almost directly in front of you, then don't accelerate at a decent rate, so now I have to slow waaaaay down, but they didn't see the 4 speed limit signs you just passed and are only going 32 mph in a 40

[PolarBear]

The place where they charge HUNDREDS of dollars to let you drive a vehicle on the public roads, because that money is supposed to pay for road service. Nope you have to pay fuel tax at the pump. But didn't they have a find somehow to collect for roads? No they spent that on other stuff so now you have to pay more tax on the fuel you already pay tax on.

F&*k, I looked in Idaho, it's like $14 for a title. Here $60 FOR A SIMPLE PIECE OF PAPER. Why the F does it cost $60 to title a vehicle in NJ?

THINK OF THE CHILDERN!!!111!!!!!

And who will pay for the roads??????

The government is here to help you. Geez, you independent folks. If you don't like it, move to Somalia!

[PolarBear]

Honestly, don't care

And who will pay for the roads??????

Typical statist response :lol: We had roads before income tax in 1913....... I wonder how that happened. Also, schools, police, etc....

The government is here to help you.

Can't get much worse than the already horrid AWB from Clinton that NJ refuses to abandon.

Worst part will be the 5 round cap on mags. Otherwise, he is an idiot with stupid ideals based in liberal utopia land of rainbows and law abiding criminals.

"To cut down on illegal gun sales and transfers, Murphy wants to require individuals to register their firearms and make it a crime to sell one's gun without first conducting a background check on the buyer."

Third degree felony to lie on a 4473(or whatever the SP uses) but hell, lets make it more illegaler!!!

Exactly, They don't care whether these laws will actually do anything or know what the laws are already. They just want more control

Another case in point: Have a doctor's appointment at 11 am. Stop at Quick Chek at 10:30 to get a soda. Place is packed. WHY AREN'T THESE PEOPLE AT WORK???

Look, we all know that the current legislation works. Just look at Newark, Camden, Trenton, Paterson, Plainfield, Atlantic City and Elizabeth. In any of the looser 2nd amendment states they would be full of crime and violence.

[sweetbmxrider]

:rofl: And why are you drinking soda at 10:30?

I'm not at work because I work 3pm to 11pm. This should be my time to get things done. I'm not in anyone's way during the hours of 3pm and 11pm. And I don't know that many people who work shift work that would allow them to be out at 10:30 in the morning. It's the whole crowd with disposable time that doesn't have to punch a clock or work set hours.

I think the point is that there ARE a lot of people that don't necessarily work "standard" hours also. I know there are a lot of people at Park Sleep Eat Go home that work 2nd and 3rd shift, there is a real need this day and age to have 24hr support people in all business aspects. Plus we are still in the heat wave most people call "summer" so there are a lot of people out and about.

BUT I do know what you mean, like how come there are so many people around when most people should be working. I have thought that many times when I was a field tech and I would stop to get a refreshment during business hours

More jobs need to be like mine. You go to work and you punch in and are there for your shift. You bring lunch or eat in the cafeteria. You punch out when you leave. If you leave early you are docked. You are not in anyone's way when they are on their free time. No scam working from home, or having comp time, or sitting with a laptop at Loiterbucks and calling it being at work.

[PolarBear]

No every job is like yours where they HAVE to be at work. Allowing people that don't need to be there, to work at home or from a remote location, is a great perk to attract people. I was able to work from home from my last position, it was great. I didn't have to go out when it was snowing, meaning I got to drive my car less in the snow and salt.

If people kept their asses at home and worked it would be OK. But they shove a Bluetooth in their ear or take a laptop with them and go out and get in the way of people who legitimately have the right to be out taking car of business. They was a guy "working" at Mavis the other day giving my friend a hard time about the length of time the work on his car was taking. I pointed out if he had a real job he wouldn't even be able to be getting his car serviced on company time. That shut him up quick.

You should have just argued with him about the North/Central Jersey split. Or just talk over him if he was on the phone :rofl:

There are lots of jobs that require people to be on the road so I don't get what the **** you are complaining about.

I've been on my job 29 years and have worked 3-11 a good majority of that time. It used to be I had a pretty straight shot going to work at 1:30 and coming home at 11. Now I'm hitting all kinds of traffic coming and going and can't even make my rounds without having to deal with crowds. That's what I'm bitching about. I've seen a good thing get all ****ed up. And that's why I want to get out of this ****ing state.

If I remember correctly, didn't the closing of the Pulaski Skyway create problems for your drive?

Hell Yeah! Now you are pretty much forced to take the toll roads and it's a crap shoot if there is going to be traffic or not, plus having to pay the outrageous tolls.

I work 2 to 10pm and i hit rush "hour" both ways. The 3 or 4 days I work overtime till 6am is fun, cause then I hit that rush hour. Its nice when my commute doubles and I only have 8 hours to drive home, shower, sleep and drive right back.

Its like everyone is on their sunday drive every day in this state now. I wonder why I constantly have to beep at people to turn right on red. Mostly cause they are too busy looking at their phones.

I saw the number at 1.89%. 35th of all states. And since we ain't the size of Texas that 1.89 stands much bigger then it seems.

[BrandonDrecksage]

I'm assuming that is the official number. I'm guessing it's higher than that if you look at all of the sanctuary cities.

Exactly, in the state with the highest density population 1.89%, or what ever the real number may be, has way more impact than the larger states
