    God I love trucker politics. See you rookies don't understand yet, all we do is drive and we are by ourselves a lot. So you have way too much time to think and you start connecting dots that aren't there.

    You forgot their tales of heroics in their previous career as a Navy SEAL in the Marine Corps Green Berets, and how they started driving before they could walk in a truck which had 20 sticks to shift.

    That is total BS... as a female do you want to take a guess at how many times a week I get asked if I am married... when all I want to do is fuel my truck and roll.. and it is NOT the transgendered, gay men or lesbians asking me... it is the straight men... they will also talk to me about their wives.. thinking that if they tell me they are married I will be more interested is chatting with them..

    The problem is you straight men who think you dont bring it up or discuss it are delusional.... you are constantly yapping about your wives, ex wives, girlfirends, ex girlfriends, a hot waitress from a frigging week ago... or the girl who rejected you in highs school and left you mortally friggin wounded..

    May sound harsh... but that is the way I see it....

    I don't want to you to think I'm not nice but whose going to care.

    If you seen what is going in and out of these restrooms, you don't have anything to worry about.

    The thing to remember is just keep to yourself and you will do well.

    It shouldn't be an issue.I haven't put the seat up for years.I don't draw attention to myself, I'm polite and respectful.Just don't want to deal with harassment if I'm just minding my own buisness.

    They can do whatever they want. Twist my words however you want but the fact is there are people who will have a problem with the LGBT community. Myself excluded!

    The sad thing we need to remember is that some people are just going to want to hate. And they have the right to hate. I will even support someone who is going to hate. I just won't support them physically or verbally attacking someone.

    Nah, that doesn't happen constantly, that's what we call hyperbole.
