FIOS

Read a random definition: hazarder

A quick definition of FIOS:

Term: FIOS

Definition: FIOS stands for "Free in and out stowed." This means that the shipper is responsible for supervising and paying for the loading, unloading, and stowing of the cargo. Basically, it's like the shipper is in charge of making sure everything gets on and off the ship safely and securely.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: FIOS is an abbreviation for "Free in and out stowed." This term is used in a bill of lading and means that the shipper is responsible for supervising and paying for the loading, unloading, and stowing of the cargo.

  • A company ships a container of goods from China to the United States using FIOS terms. This means that the company is responsible for hiring workers to load the container onto the ship in China, and then unload and stow the container when it arrives in the United States.
  • Another company ships a shipment of cars from Japan to Australia using FIOS terms. This means that the company is responsible for supervising the loading of the cars onto the ship in Japan, and then unloading and stowing the cars when they arrive in Australia.

These examples illustrate how FIOS works in practice. When a company uses FIOS terms, they are responsible for all aspects of the loading, unloading, and stowing of their cargo. This can be a good option for companies that want more control over the shipping process, but it can also be more expensive and time-consuming than other options.

Going to law school with you is even more fun than going to San Sebastian, Irún, Hendaye, Biarritz, Bayonne or being sick to my stomach on the Travesera de Gracia in Barcelona partly because in your orange shirt you look like a better happier St. Sebastian partly because of my love for you, partly because of your love for yoghurt partly because of the fluorescent orange tulips around the birches partly because of the secrecy our smiles take on before people and statuary

Man, there is this girl I visit every month at this one restaurant who I used to go skinny dipping with naked like @ararara always talked about in San Diego. We randomly reconnected like two months ago at this place she works at and we talk a lot about John Steinbeck books. If I don't visit her this month, she might be sad. However, this is my first day not sick and I worry about getting her sick and I am broke. What should I do LSD?

Tell her you just got over a cold and if she wants to try and steal your germs its on her but no one likes being sick so hopefully she is chill
