shipper

Read a random definition: half-seal

A quick definition of shipper:

A shipper is someone who sends goods to another person or company. They may also be the person who arranges for a carrier, like a truck or ship, to transport the goods. Sometimes, the shipper is not the owner of the goods, but instead acts as an agent or contractor. This is different from a carrier, who is responsible for physically transporting the goods.

A more thorough explanation:

A shipper is a person or company that sends goods to another location or contracts with a carrier to transport cargo. The shipper may not necessarily be the owner of the cargo, but could be an agent or independent contractor.

  • John is a shipper who sends his products to retailers across the country.
  • ABC Company is a shipper that contracts with a carrier to transport their goods to international markets.

These examples illustrate how a shipper can be an individual or a company that sends goods to another location or contracts with a carrier to transport cargo. The shipper is responsible for ensuring that the goods are properly packaged and labeled for transport, and for arranging for the carrier to pick up and deliver the cargo.

@IrishDinosaur: you inspire me and my completely misguided cope that I might ever get into UCLA
Super big congrats irish!!!
Also pretty much agree with Wasp. I think it’s more about getting the political/judicial position as a Fedsoc member that will likely require a stance siding with whatever the conservative majority party is at that time.

Yeah, that's fair. I guess I need to think about it more assuming I start law school in the fall. I really want to clerk and that seems like the best option.
BUT i think once you get the position, you’ll have more leeway in making decisions more liberally. Sort of like how ACB and Gorsuch sometimes swing left after being portreayed in the media as far right (not sure if that was actually the case though).
From the perspective of someone who interned at the White House, I will add that my bosses always told me to “be careful about my resume.” Don’t want to align with any org that doesn’t fit your values because you won’t be trusted by the other side until you show them you’re legit again, and word travels in DC.

I mean I highly highly doubt I'll become a federal judge, it's more just about getting a leg up in getting opportunities in the first place
Not sure how that true that is in practice and sorry for the long messages💀

And, yeah, that's fair. Right now my resume probably looks like it's from someone who is center-right
Honestly, it just depends on your values. If you ever see yourself being a dem member in any capacity, then MAYBE stay away. But like you just said, there’s a possibility to look moderate with the right WE post law school.

Yeah, that's true as well. As a side note, it's very cool you interned with the white house, I know those internships are incredibly hard to get

A lot of conservativism right now is also just be as aggressive and unwilling to compromise in decision making right now because the left is out there in lets appeal to 1% of the population land so proposals brought to the table by them are 1, insane and 2, all or nothing proposals with no compromise.

It's a bad time to be partisan really in any way.
I had to apply 4 times and got off the WL so I barely got it. It was a cool exp but def not any work crazier than you would see on capitol hill or any political org imo.

18:14
It def looks great on your resume though
Yeah thats why i did it😂 it was a crazy time bcuz i had to commute from 2 hrs away since i was paying rent in madison and i couldnt afford another apt in DC
Never again.

the 1% argument is crazy dk
Even the the wh internship is good on the resume, the legal assistant work is more practical. It was tuff to make a why law with no direct law exp
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: yooo i got a BL interview on monday even with ass grades somehow lol

only 5% of the country identifies as queer. about 12% percent of the US identifies as black. are those numbers low enough for that argument too like what
Just glad the biden admin existed durin my time in college bcuz they had a focus on not being elitist. Prbly never wouldve got it as a normal, low-income uw madison student in the prior admins
