    Hey, crap happens. And more often than not, it happens because we have screwed up. So you learn from it, take your lumps and get on with your life. The major thing is that you learn from it!

    You mean two that have admitted to it.:D

    Well, when that happens it isn't long before the whole terminal hears about it, so that's far from an easily kept secret. ;)

    With embellishments and carefully crafted story lines showing you either a super hero or a complete and total zero. LOLZ... sarcastic laughing and teasing...

    Oh, you guys keep a 'board of shame' as well? Lol.

    You don't wanna be on that board.

    No. That might impose undue stigma on the non-drivers and we certainly can't have that. :rolleyes:

    Oh yes, one certainly can't be exposed to negative emotions. Especially when they stem from THEIR OWN mistakes.

    *puts rose colored glasses back on*

    You Sir, joined a short list of my Favorite people on here just now. Your post in this beautiful written and presented strong positions which which some will require assault and others I support. I will have to do some thinking carefully before I respond. I do share just about all of this and will be prepared to reply over time. Im not capable of being beautiful in my words as you are; however it is clear you understood my position. Im prepared to argue my position regarding the apparent desperation of truckers and also the complete and total failure of young people to articulate their wants in life future and actually stepping off to it with both hands and a glad heart that they have been given. Instead they sulk and moan in anger when told by a super visor to do this or that without any apparent control.

    I'll get into it more maybe tomorrow. But that paragraph should show you where Im about to get into it in the converstation here.

    Good luck and be peaceful tonight.

    The appointment times should be disposed of. I despise and curse the #### things.

    FFS appointment to the dentist a hour down a highway subject to a half hour or one hour loss in travel time at any moment. Makes me angry.

    Never mind professionaly guiding a big 40 ton vehicle 3000 freaking gawdamn cursed miles to make the appt to the 10 minutes good. SHEESH. And I have the white hair to prove it.
