Sorry people I joined along time ago and did not remember the Forum rules. There were two post because I did not think the first one posted as there was no history in "My post" or a warning that I was not abiding by the rules. My apologies to everyone in the Forum as this is a good way to exchange information and would not want to see it shut down, I just chose the wrong topic, this was not done maliciously.


Thank you Texan for the reminder.

The Texan is 100% right it is in the Forum Rules as my wife just read them to me.

Cool ! Thanks guys !

You are going to get this forum closed, if you keep posting legal information from an active law suit. If that is your goal then let us know, so we can find another home, as it appears you are trying hard with 2 illegal post in 2 days.

I really like this forum and there is a lot of good information on here..then every now and then there has to be some
smart----(pardon me)that has to get funny. Well sending a private message because you do not have the guts to put it on the forum for everyone to see just doesn't sit with me. If you want information or have something possitive to add then by all means feel free to PM me. But to get a PM like the one LivinGood sent to me just don't make sence.
I posted about not getting service because I feel that being way out in nowhere they should take care of us, I know Jamie would if we were working out of his yard. We were to work out of his yard but Roger needed help so we agreed to help him.
I did post about getting the******scared out of me by a large Rattler.
The stupid comments PM'd me by LivinGood is way out of reason.
LivinGood's PM to me.
Well....hmmmmm Girlyman....I sure hope the SNAKES don't get you.

"Livin Good" is a brick-short-of-a-load agitator/troll, frequenting various forums here, who gets kicks out of sending worthless drivel via PMs.

Gutless? - of course!.:B

Can't stand up to the "heat" from a post that all can see!.:S

DW & I are considering Gate Guarding next winter. I was just wondering if there is anything that we could do now (we live in MO) to smooth/expedite the process when we get to TX? I was thinking if we could do something now-getting fingerprints, etc. maybe things would go faster when we get there.

Thanks!

Never underestimate the power of a sunny day and light winds. Almost makes the mud tolerable.

Also, GGS will not hire you back afer you leave.

It is my understanding that rehire at GGS is up to Sid. I have also heard from reliable company sources that they do rehire. Have you ever thought about the fact that they may be getting rid of the "dead wood" when they consider folks for rehire?? I'm also sure the "good ole boy" network is in place at GGS. ;)

Well, it's official, we are now setting at a Cadillac gate. The contractor left today and CGP-31 is now operational. We will be here for another couple months while the erosion control is completed, new road and culvert completed and the main fence with electronic gate installed. Gate is now open M-F, 7 to 5 and we will be lucky if we see 10-15 vehicles a day. Love it, considering we have logged in over 15,000 vehicles since we opened the gate on 10/6.

I know of one gate guard that left and went with K & C they let him go after about 3 weeks. Gate Guard Services did take him back, but he got put in a place he did not like. So off he went again with someone else. Guess we will stay put for this year. As we are going home around May 5th. We want be back until Sept. Maybe Oct, just depends on how broke we get. I had an emergency on Monday and they had a service man out here in about 30 mins and found someone to stay the night while i was in the hospital. That means a lot to me.
Does anyone know when Gate Guard case with the labor dept is coming off this year ? Don't get me wrong i would like to have more money too. I truly understand others doing what they are doing. Sometimes you just have to take a chance, who knows i might be next. Just because GGS,is the biggest guard company, does not mean they will always be. No business is safe unless they stay up with competition.
