    Haha... I can speak arabic. Don't know how to read it though. Oh well... did not help me on my job application. All they cared about was that I knew how to read my permits (which I never read).... LOOOONG story with some serious bad outcomes.

    Your last name must be Müller, Schultz or Schröder. No idea why they would ask you that. During my interview they asked me if I knew how to drive. Without missing a beat "is the pope catholic? Hell yeah I know how to drive. And I bet I can get your freight moved faster and more safer than anyone else ....sir".

    Ummmm when can you start?

    What did I say about using that word?!!?! ...thought we used glowplugs? I might be wrong. Can someone please tell me where I can find some new engine retarder (jake brake) pads? Someone told me mine were going bad. Someone else told me most Flying Js carry them next to the blinker fluid.

    I'm going to use arse if I want too! This country still free. And I'm glad I'm not the only crazy german here. My last name is really German. But I am a big mutt aka my ancestors took anything that walked lol. AND my alcohol tolerance is higher than most.

    Thx for remimdimgbme that I need blinked fluid and eng brake pads, I knew something was wrong with my tractor. I just noticed my lumpers license expired so I can not work the dock anymore!

    @RR go to YRC where I used to work. This is how they interview, do you hold a license, got your endorsements? OK good your hired get in the truck!

    OK on a serious note that isn't a rant but I had an awesome week.

    Can someone please tell me where they keep the "summer air" for my tyres? Seriously. I drained all 28 of my tyres from the "winter air". I am running around, tearing up my rims. The cute petrol attendant just smiles at me.
