NVOCC

Read a random definition: MSJ

A quick definition of NVOCC:

A carrier is a person or company that transports people or goods for a fee. A common carrier is a company that offers transportation services to the public and is required by law to transport goods or passengers if the approved fee is paid. A non-vessel-operating common carrier is a freight forwarder that contracts with a shipper to transport goods but does not own the means of transportation. A private carrier is a carrier that is not required by law to accept business from the general public.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: NVOCC stands for non-vessel-operating common carrier. It refers to a freight forwarder that does not own the means of transportation, but contracts with a shipper to transport freight and with a carrier to perform the transportation. The NVOCC becomes the carrier in the contract with the original shipper and the shipper in the contract with the eventual carrier.

Example: ABC Freight Forwarding is an NVOCC that contracts with a manufacturer to transport their goods from China to the United States. ABC Freight Forwarding then contracts with a carrier, such as a shipping line, to perform the transportation. In this case, ABC Freight Forwarding is the carrier in the contract with the manufacturer and the shipper in the contract with the shipping line.

This example illustrates the definition of NVOCC by showing how a freight forwarder can act as a carrier in one contract and a shipper in another contract. The NVOCC is responsible for ensuring that the goods are transported safely and efficiently from the manufacturer to the destination.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio
14:54
What made you give in and go out after he asked a couple times?
Other failed dates
babycat
14:55
That’ll do it
Question, how many of u would sleep on first date
babycat
14:57
honestly my answer is it depends
babycat
14:57
there has to be a very specific vibe to make me want to do that. not like a regular date
babycat
14:59
and sometimes you want to and you still don’t do ir
babycat
14:59
it
babycat
15:00
but I don’t use dating apps so all my first dates are with people I’ve already met in some context, which it sounds like is your situation too
Dkk
15:00
I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.
Dkk
15:01
@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better
babycat
15:01
@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?
Dkk
15:03
Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.
15:04
Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that
Ok another question, what do u tell the ppl u sleeping with already that ur going on dates
Dkk
15:05
The bigger issue is if I sleep with them will I have the emotional connection to finish cus it is harder for me to finish if I do not know the person.
