    Must be a week of dealing with boneheads. I've been cussed, at last count, 9 times in the last two days by drivers that I have stopped. One of those drivers who had a CDL, was in his personal car doing 20 over and I quote," This must be a ###### joke, you stopped me for that?" Yep, 20 over got you stopped driver, betcha wished I wrote you a warning for speed, seeing how this 15 over will ding your CDL. Had another truck yesterday, run me down from behind at 17 over, pass me and wanted to cuss me for writing him a ticket. Had another one, 15 over and no seatbelt, "Why the f did you stop me?" I don't know wanted to see if you wanted to play checkers.

    Three that cussed me were suspended or revoked. Two of them were in hours violations. It can't be the moon, it was full last week. But the ast two days have been ....well f'ed up.

    Had one fella hit another truck on the interstate. Run right in the back of him an thoise two guys almost are throwing fists when I pulled up. The guy that hit the other guy cusses me because he ran into the rearend of the other truck. WTF? I finally looked at him and said "jackhole, you hit him in the rear riding down the road, what else do you want a prize for the bnonehead move of the day. Of coarse you are getting a ticket.":biggrin_25521:

    Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. :biggrin_2554:

    Hahahaha.

    Reminds me of a sarcastic answer I gave on the CB years ago, when I was running North out of Jersey....

    "Hey Northbound, are the scales open on 17?"

    "10-4, Southbound, they're open...."

    "Are they weighin' Ya ??!!??"

    "No, Southbound, they're giving out free pizza and if you have time, they'll do a pedicure and hot wax your back hair...."

    "F-You, Northbound......."

    "Have a safe trip, Driver......"

    You know, I think that is what keeps me sane somedays. No one wants to see, I get that. So I'll at least humor myself somedays to keep me from getting cynical.
