Re: You ARE a victim of a dysfunctional family, Mike - it is us.
"I was aware that I was a victim of a dysfunctional family at a very young age. So were the courts and other authorities." -Mike Foulks
Apparently you still are a victim of a dysfunctional family. The courts and authorities should be aware of this if they are not?
When you violate these common-sense rules of your family, they will all of a sudden become dysfunctional (bad, abnormal, difficult) to you:
The following house rules apply to the Chicago Dispatcher Discussion forum for Chicago's taxi drivers in order to maintain order within an open forum:
1) No flaming, threats, personal insults, obscenity, libel, slander or remarks that damage anyone's character.
2) Do not post material that violates copyright, privacy, patent, trademark or other intellectual property.
3) Please keep topics limited to the taxi trade.
4) Private information about any person, place or activity or information that cannot be verified in publicly accessible information is not permitted.
5) No commercial postings.
6) Do not collect email addresses from the forum (where available) for the purpose of spamming, mass email or advertising.
7) Moderator may remove any posting that points out the moderator's mistakes, errors and misinformation whether deliberate or accidental, from the forum without notice or explanation. We will try to resolve conflicts but we are not obligated to do so, it is easier just delete or bury undesired facts and hope nobody will notice.
8) Forum contributors use this service at their own risk and are subject to prevailing local, state and federal law, to Bravenet Terms of Service and to abusive attacks, flaming, threats, personal insults, obscenity, libel, slander or remarks that damage one's character by the moderator's friends and assignees.
ALL CONTRIBUTORS ARE WARNED TO PRACTICE CAUTION WHEN USING THIS FORUM TO ENGAGE IN ANY INTELLECTUAL OR SOCIO-CULTURALLY MEANINGFUL TOPIC. (IT WILL NOT HAPPEN HERE!)
9) The taxi trade is a respectable profession. Do not insult cabdrivers or their profession on this forum. Complaints against cyberstalkers, cabdrivers or cab companies should be directed to the appropriate regulating or law enforcement agency.
10) This forum is provided as a free service of the Chicago Dispatcher and therefor it is subject to our terms of service, prevailing local, state and federal law, Bravenet Terms of Service and to abusive attacks, flaming, threats, personal insults, obscenity, libel, slander or remarks that damage one's character by the moderator's friends and assignees.
Re: Re: Is there anything we can learn from others' problems?
Mr. Budzynski,
I thought that there were interesting parallels of the situation that dry cleaners are facing and this man's opinions with the situation we face as cabdrivers.
The fact that he is also named "Weiss" is just a hilarious coincidence.
I suggest you re-read what this guy is advising his fellow dry cleaners about and consider how any of it might apply to us.

Mike, what are you saying? What does this have to do with the Chicago taxicabs?
