[PRCo] Re: ANOTHER ACCIDENT

[Ken & Tracie]

They treat their drivers like cr*p. But I suppose that goes without saying. 
There are over 1.2 million residents in Clark County and around 7,000 people 
per month moving here.

So perhaps they will exhaust the entire population of the county before they 
start retaining employees.
