NO GUTS, NO GLORY,,,however, we tend to forget, it is mighty intimidating. I had the luxury(?) of starting with pickup trucks, and worked my way up to semis. Today, it's entirely possible to go from a Prius to a Freightliner,,,in just a few weeks.
Now, I could be like my old man, who practiced "negative reinforcement", "You are nothing but a screwup, and won't amount to anything", and it was supposed to make you try harder to disprove the old man, then he felt validated. We found out, that wasn't the best policy.stuckinthemud, rachi and Wasted Thyme Thank this. -
