Us Customs & Air Worthiness Certificates Form

This happens in the automated nozzle petrol pumps. All of us think that these auto pumps are tamper proof but they are not. The auto nozzles have a nozzle trigger lock, which when triggered, stays on till there is flow of fuel in the pipe and automatically pops off when the fuel flow stops. The auto nozzle was designed to prevent fuel fraud but there is a small technicality that unscrupulous attendants use to their advantage. The technicality is – it’s possible to manually override the trigger lock.This is how this petrol pump scam happens:We ask for ‘x’ liters of petrol to be filled in our car/bike, the attendant sets the meter and asks us to check the ‘zero’ status on the meter (but of course!). He/she then fits the nozzle into the petrol tank and sets the auto trigger on. We are watching the meter but nothing (or no one) stops your hawk like vigil on the meter. Eventually the meter stops running and the attendant takes out the nozzle. We are happy because we successfully saw the meter signNow ‘x’ liters without an ogre interruption. But the scam has already happened and poor us are not even aware of it.The attendant is supposed to take his/her hands of the nozzle after setting the auto lock and touch the nozzle again only after there is an audible ‘Click’ from the nozzle, which indicates that the pumping process has stopped.There is a time lag of 3-4 seconds between the meter stopping and auto nozzle clicking off. The pump keeps sending fuel in these few seconds (in spite of the meter stopping) because it has to empty all the fuel that is trapped in the connecting tube and the meter has already billed you for it.But our intrepid attendant has other plans. We failed to notice it because we were glued to the running meter, but the attendant never took his/her hands off the nozzle. As soon as the meter stops running, the attendant manually overrides the auto trigger and switches the nozzle off. Some of the fuel is still trapped in the connecting tube. The attendant then maneuvers the fuel tube and places the nozzle in its holder.The maneuvering is to make sure all that trapped fuel (your fuel) is sent back into the tanker, thereby emptying the connecting tube (in the reverse way). A ‘skilled’ attendant can siphon off 50-100ml of fuel per filling.That might not seem much but it all adds up at the end of a busy day, at the expense of thousands of victims like us. This is the ‘No Click’ trick. we never heard the click and never will, as long as the attendant has his/her hands on our trigger.

The shipper will fill out a customs form when they ship the product detailing price and description. The US customs department will make a determination based on that document . Usually a value of only $ 50.00 will have little or no duty due based on the product value.You don’t have to do anything except pay the duty if you receive a notice.

I'm currently a foreign exchange student in US, and most Americans I meet are friendly and open, and I love them with all my heart, but I have a couple of things that I find annoying about some Americans.Number 1: The NationalityThey'll often realize that I'm foreign as I have an accent (never mind, that sometimes they think that I'm just from the west coast), and then they'll ask me where I'm from.I'll barely be done saying that I'm from Denmark, before they go onto saying: "Oh cool, I'm German," in the beginning, this would excite me, thinking that they were actually born in Germany or had lived there for a part of their life, but it turns out that a lot of Americans like to believe that if they have 1/6 of German in their family tree, they're suddenly German. Also I often come across people who say that there is no such thing as an American, and while you could argue that it should be more along the lines of Citizen of United States of America (you know.. America is not only US..), it is ridiculous to think that you're German, even though you are born and raised in America by American parents.I don't know why, but this is kinda just nagging me.Number 2: CriticismAmericans are quick to criticize and give their (often based on very little or no information) opinion on other countries and/or world events. In Denmark, this is completely normal, and we know that comments from foreigners will be against some of the stuff we think, but we tolerate it because, you know.. freedom of speech (yes, freedom is a thing in the rest of the world, too. Not only in US).In US however, a lot of people will get offended if you criticize US, or maybe just talk about how you think this one particular thing is handled better in other parts of the world, you'll often be met with angry faces.There's a few more, but they've already been talked about in other answers. Don't get me wrong, I love US a lot, and I love Americans even more, but as everyone else in the world, Americans have their flaws, they're just human after all.

“Will President Trump end the use of Spanish as an additional language on Federal documents?”Is really a different question from:“Will Trump restore the status of English as the unifying language of USA?”The former literally just inconveniences people. There is no logical reason to make forms only in English unless only English-speakers are likely to need them, or unless you want to inconvenience people who do not speak English very well, and it inconveniences the US government as well.I mean… for example, at airports we have US customs forms in dozens of languages.https://www.cbp.gov/sites/defaul...Here is the German oneHow does it help anyone to force them to fill out a customs form in English? Sure, most Germans speak English fluently, but a lot of them are very rusty at it and might not know all of the jargon present on a customs declaration form.Is a German who is kind of rusty at English more likely to declare “agricultural and wildlife products” or “Landwirtschaftliche und Wildtierprodukte”? Do you really want to increase the likelihood entering into the US without understanding or admitting to exactly what they need to declare?All this type of thing does is inconvenience people.As for the second, English is the de facto language of the USA. It obviously is not the official language, but over 90% of the population speaks it fluently.I do not think anyone needs to “restore” its status.

I’ve had too many to count. Working at customer service at Walmart you will see just about anything. I’ll give you a few.• A woman comes up with a bag of what appears to be red mud. She plops it on my counter with a wet sploosh. The customer shoved a receipt in my face while explaining she needs to exchange her dress for a new one. She’d only gotten to wear it to church once before she tripped and landed in a mud puddle.I blinked before prodding the muddy dress in the bag. I took a deep breath before explaining, as nicely as I could, that clothing exchanges just don’t work that way. The only way we could exchange or refund an article of clothing was if there was a factory defect or if the clothing was in new condition.The woman insisted that she had always exchanged her ‘stained’ clothing with us. I explained that after items left the store, they belonged to the customer, unless damaged by the manufacturer, or in new condition, and we did not exchange stained clothing. She blew up and went through two CSMs and a front end manager before grabbing her muddy dress and storming from the store.• A woman came in with a totally empty cake box and demanded another cake and her money back. The cake, she said, had been for her daughter’s birthday party and it had been stale and was disgusting. I asked her where the cake was and she huffed and rolled her eyes, telling me that it was a party and they HAD to eat it. I turned it over to the bakery manager. She took great pleasure in telling the customer she had to have at least a bit of the cake to do anything.• A man came in with a swimming pool that he claimed was two years old because grass had grown through the liner. It smelled so bad all the customers in line left. I was gagging too much to do anything until a coworker shrink wrapped the nasty thing.The customer had no receipt but claimed he paid $500 for it. I told him that even with a receipt, we could only do an exchange within 90 days. I had a CSM over ride me on this one, even though we didn’t even carry the same pool. There was no way to even ring it into the system.I told my CSM that I would have nothing to do with the transaction and made her sign everything. I warned her someone would get fired over this transaction and it would not be me. True to my words, I was called into the store manager’s office and told to explain myself. I explained that the whole thing was the CSM’s fault and she was fired.• A lady brought in an opened DVD and wanted her money back. Copyright law prohibits this. We can exchange for the exact same title but no refunds or title swaps. I told her I was sorry and explained the law. She goes into a full blown rant because she wanted the same movie she saw in the theater but this one was modified.I asked the customer what she was talking about and she tells me it says it’s been modified right at the beginning of the movie and she wanted the same one from the theater, not some modified crap. Obviously, she was talking about the screen that tells you the film has been modified to fit your tv screen. I asked her if she had watched the movie. No. She hadn’t wanted to bother since she knew it wasn’t what she wanted. I explained the modification was only to the size of the film, not the content. She gives me this blank stare and tells me not to blow smoke up her butt. Okay. I try again. Telling her to just take the movie home and watch it, promising that it’s the same movie.The customer became so upset that I had to call in both a CSM and the Electronics manager. They pulled her aside and tried to explain things to her with no success. The customer threw the DVD at us and stormed off.• A customer came in with a desktop computer to exchange. I asked him what was wrong with it and he told me it was an oversized paper weight. He said it did nothing and would not even turn on. I pulled it out of the box, plugged it up, hit the power button, and it immediately started booting up. The guy gapes at me for a moment before asking what I did. I told him I had plugged it in and pushed the power button. He said he hadn’t realized there was a power button. We packed it back up and he took it back home.

About 8 months ago I walked into a gun store and walked out 30 minutes later with an AR-15 style weapon. My rifle cost me about 850$ USD and came with one extra magazine. It’s chambered in 5.56 and fires semi auto. Not that “Full Semi Auto” crap you hear on the news. I’ll get back to that in a second.When I walked in, I had previously purchased two firearms from the dealer and was perfectly satisfied with what I got. Both of them are more traditional rifle weapons that you would think of being used for hunting or similar. The gentleman who was running the counter knows who I am and that I come in with an idea of what I want and that I want it knew. He finished with the customer he was working with while I looked at the store’s cannon. Yes, an actual working cannon. When the other customer had finished he called out to me and this exchange happened. This took about 10 minutes.“Mr. Bowman. Good to see you again.”“Hello Mr. Ron. It’s great to be back here. Would you happen to have an AR-15 in stock?”“Yes sir.” He signNowes behind him and pulls it down off of the wall “This one look good?” I spend about 5 minutes exploring the weapon. Basic things. Inspecting the sights, checking out the action and magazine port. Basic things. “Looks pretty good to me. Do you have any other recommendations?”“This is just my opinion but I find it’s usually better to use a red dot sight on one of these than irons.”“Ok. Got anything in particular you would suggest checking out?”“Yes sir. Right over here” He proceeds to lead me around the counter to the far side and pull out around 5 different models of sight. “I would recommend this one. It’s pretty cheap and works great. I have one on my rifle at home.”We proceed to spend about 10 minutes checking out the sights. I settle on the second cheapest one which is actually the one he suggested in the first place and then we walk back to the gun counter area. “I’m going to need you to fill out this paperwork if you don’t mind” I fill out the paperwork. Takes about 2 minutes. He gets his coworker to run it through the instant background check. I’m validated in less than 2 minutes. “Looks like it’s all good. Would you come over to the register and finish the purchase please?”About a minute later I was holding my rifle, sight and an ammo box with 500 rounds and walking out the door.If I had known exactly what I wanted on that day and hadn’t wanted any extras I could have been in and out in 5 minutes. The reason why this was so fast is because I’m an American citizen who has no record beyond a single misdemeanor driving ticket who went to a reputable gun store and didn’t act suspicious. If you are a felon, you can’t get guns. If you act suspicious they can refuse to sell to you.̶O̶b̶v̶i̶o̶u̶s̶l̶y̶ ̶i̶f̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶n̶’̶t̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶A̶m̶e̶r̶i̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶c̶i̶t̶i̶z̶e̶n̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶w̶o̶n̶’̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶b̶u̶y̶ ̶g̶u̶n̶s̶ ̶e̶i̶t̶h̶e̶r̶.̶It’s been brought to my attention that non citizens can actually purchase firearms in the US if they have a greencard. My apologies.The reason I brought up the “Full Semi Auto” crap earlier. The media lies to you. What they are trying to imply is that the weapon was automatic meaning when you pull the trigger it keeps firing. What it actually means is that the weapon is semi automatic which means it only shoots one bullet when you pull the trigger. It’s a way to demonize gun owners like myself and make us all seem like crazy mass murders. It’s honestly infuriating.

Experts estimate that as few as 30 percent of small business customers fill out comment cards when they’re offered.I think some of the across-the-board reasons customers avoid them is because...It takes time. They came, they ate, they want to go home.people don’t like to “feel mean” (some people find it uncomfortable to let a host know they could be more friendly, or well drink prices are astronomical).they don’t think anyone is going to read them/anything will change.It’s unfortunate, because comment cards can contain a wealth of guest data and information that can be used to inform future marketing opportunities.Filling out a comment card takes extra time and effort on the guest’s part. Few people are willing to put in extra time and effort unless there’s something in it for them.So the key to getting more guests to fill out comment cards is to offer an incentive.One way you can do this is to treat the comment card as a coupon. Guests who bring it back filled out can receive a discount on their next visit, or something like a free dessert or soft drink.Another way (and a better way to get immediate feedback) is to drop off the comment card with the bill, and entitle guests to a percentage off that night’s check if they fill out the comment card on the spot.Of course, offering discounts and freebies in return for comment cards can start to add up for your restaurant, cost-wise. So another good way to incentivize guests to fill out comment cards is to put completed comment cards into a weekly or monthly drawing for a prize, like a gift card to your restaurant so they’re also encouraged to come back for future visits.As more guests start filling out comment cards, make sure to enter the data from the cards into your current guest database, so you can use it in your future marketing efforts. That way, you’ll truly be getting the most possible use from your comment card campaign.

A few summers ago I went to Israel on a birthright trip. Our program was the first of a new type of trip that was highlighted with an extended 3 day immersion into the Israeli Defense Forces, specifically the Home Front Command Search and Rescue Unit. We were accompanied by five young Israeli soldiers for the entire trip, including the 3 days on the IDF base. They were there on vacation the same as the 40 other young adults on our trip (my group was aged 22-26, other than the soldiers who were 19-21) and their presence gave our group a fascinating perspective at what it is like to be a young Israeli.Coincidentally, two of our soldier friends were part of the Home Front Command. They tried to give us an idea of what life on their base, Bahad 16, would be like for our three day experience. It proved difficult to properly prepare 40 young American boys and girls who come from all walks of life - law students, artists, engineers, yoga instructors - for the military. As we arrived, we were issued IDF dog tags with our names on them, and uniforms that we were to wear all day, until after dinner. The guys bunked in one barrack and the girls in another, and they were expected to be kept clean every day. We had physical training in the morning and evening, usually running or circuit training in the gym, or spinning. During the day, we attended lectures on search and rescue techniques and exercises in equipment training (jackhammers! rotating saws! sledgehammers! robots!) in between. In the evenings, after dinner we could play soccer or participate in team scavenger hunt games that meant more running all over the base to find clues or solve problems. On the second morning, I was starting to feel pretty good about myself and how I was handling "being in the IDF." Cameras were not allowed, so I drew this image of myself in our barrack from memory:That being said, I am under no illusion that we got the full monty IDF experience. In fact we had it pretty easy compared to the real IDF soldiers. Our PT sessions ultimately were not mandatory and when I realized that the cute, 19 year old Israeli girl barking at me to run faster could easily krav maga my ass to the ground, my sense of belonging and bravado faded pretty quickly.But being a American civilian in the IDF is only the introduction to the most statistically improbable thing that has ever happened to me. About a week after our trip ended, I met up with two of my Israeli friends who I had met on the trip. They took me camping and hiking in the Negev Desert, near Sde Boker Kibbutz. I could write a long description of that experience in itself, but what happened to me while sleeping on the ground, near our campfire is what makes me a statistical improbability.Two months after I got back to the US, a large (about the size of a quarter) lesion appeared on my right forearm. I assumed it was an infected bug bite and went to my dermatologist to have it looked at. He prescribed me some antibiotics and creams but after a week it was getting worse. It was pus-filled and bloody, but not really itchy or painful. I went back to the doctor and he took a biopsy of the infected skin, asked about any recent domestic or international travel and told me he would have results in a few days. I was scheduled to go on a short trip, so I made an appointment to see him when I got back, but the next afternoon as I was boarding my plane his office called and told me that they needed to see me - right away. This was not what I was expecting to hear.After explaining that I was literally about to board a cross-country germ tube, they explained that I wasn't putting myself or my fellow passengers in any danger and to come into their office as soon as I returned, no appointment needed (not good, I'm thinking).During my follow-up visit, my doctor, along with five others and a photographer nearly knocked each other over, running into the exam room to see me. He explained that they needed to take another biopsy to conform but that I had a very rare disease that they had never seen and they needed to know more about my trip to Israel and where I had been. When I mentioned the camping trip in the middle of the desert, everyone's eyes lit up, knowingly. He told me that I had contracted a disease called Old World Cutaneous leishmaniasis from a parasite that was living in a sand-fly that had likely bit my arm while I was sleeping on the desert floor, under the stars.  Twenty minutes into his excited explanation of everything that was going to happen, I think he saw the "oh-fuck-they're-going-cut-my-arm-off" look on my face because he finally said:"Oh, don't worry. This is easily treated and you're going to be totally fine, but according to the CDC you're one of about 20 Americans to be diagnosed with this form of this disease in at least the last decade. And none of us have ever seen it before. We all think this is so cool! My partner wants to take a biopsy to study it, but I told her that wasn't appropriate."Bedside manner? Not so much.The medicine for treatment was not available in the United States and once the CDC confirmed the exact variety of parasite, they were able to treat me. I spent a few months taking daily pills and I was pronounced cured. I have small scar and a great story.Leishmaniasis Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)Photos from the hiking trip and my arm after the second biopsy:
