    It’s the worst. I have only come across these a few times. This particular customer only has a few random ones scattered around the docks.

    Sometimes jobsites have a way of making u not think about #### like that. Usually after some dip #### with a shiny hard hat tells you u need to go to the other end of the site when u were just there and that dip #### over there said u needed to go to the other end that ur now at... can u see the smoke coming out of the ears yet? If not, there will be some when the safety dill hole come by and tell you to put your hard hat back on when it's 116 degrees outside and your brain is boiling and u took off the hat when a slight breeze came thru to get some air... but u can't say #### to the safety man cuz u will get kicked out if u even look at the guy wrong..

    So u follow the original donkey ### to the other end of the site and at this point ur raging hard cursing this whole f ing place to burn down to the ground then the donkey leads u to a mudhole where u get stuck... and then they have to make 65 thousand phone calls to get approval to pull you out when the equipment is sitting 6 ft away running with an operator and a chain hooked to the truck.... Hate those type of jobsites... but that sounds about like what happened to that poor fella. Been there done that. More than once unfortunately...

    I learned it ain't even worth it to get mad anymore, because nothing good happens after anger starts.

    He is far from ignorant, he is far from being a deadbeat, and he is my friend.

    Nah, he ain't no deadbeat, that's his moniker for me. He's a different sort of DB, and while he may be good at his profession, when it comes to being human he truly is ignorant. But I get it, it's ok that he and his fanboys go around calling people names and making fun of them, but don't anyone dare give it back or call them out on their bs, just can't have that.

    Wow! When did all this happen? It seems like you are harboring a grudge.

    We'll have to agree to disagree, as the Humble Pie that I know can take as good as he gives.

    Been a while but nope, no grudge, I just don't like two faced liars that go around spewing garbage about things they know nothing about.

    Yeah, I don’t much care for liars and blow hards either. Being called a dead beat is pretty bad. Ain’t much worse than a man who doesn’t provide for his kids.
