    I'm a trauma nurse in a Level 1 Trauma center in inner city Pittsburgh. Work steady 7pm to 7am three nights a week. Always an interesting time.

    And live 0.7 miles from the hospital. Bought the Tacoma with almost 84K on it 4 months ago. Figure at this rate it should last me about 117 years...

    I figured I should update people. lol Since last time, I have been laid off from my customer service job with an oil company, worked at kohls for a month for seasonal work, now working at staples as a computer tech until I can get a job with an IT firm to put to work my A+, Network+ and Security+ Certifications.

    Not sure what you're getting at. The Tacoma was built under union labor at the NUMMI plant in Northern California from 1991 until 2010. Only the 2011 and up units that are built in Texas are built union-free.

    Toyota can build damn good vehicles AND put up with the union bull shit when they have to.

    To avoid thread jacking: I'm in Consumer Research for the Consumer Packaged Goods Industry (anything you buy in the store that comes in a package)
