    No you shouldn't be angry, you should actually learn how to read what we are saying.

    Don't think you are dumb or anything but need to be pointed in the right direction.

    Your situation isn't new and you expecting advice isn't either. BUT the dream thing, we have heard hundreds of times before.

    We don't want to see you become one of them idiot steering wheel holders trapped in a crap job being told when to take a dump someone who takes this seriously and doesn't worry about the little things.

    so if I or others hurt feelings, so what, it is what we have to do to stop problems from being our problem on the road.

    I figured you'd get mad about my post, that's ok.

    My main point was if you called in or not. You said you did but they fired you anyway. If that's the case, then they are completely in the wrong. You're probably just as well to be gone from there anyway. They should have at least laid you off so you could draw unemployment.

    As with most internet post and Paul Harvey, there is usually "the rest of the story ".

    First I have to say, you didn't exactly give full detail in your first post. So yeah, some people wanted clarity. Others just wanted to be d!cks. Is this your first time on the internet? Sorry for the sarcasm but really, it's the internet....

    I got roasted in another thread for making an assumption. I later learned I was wrong, and I accepted that and expressed that I was admitting my fault. I'm still getting roasted. You just gotta pick out the real advice and answers and ignore the chaff.

    This is still a good community and a good place to get advice, just have a thicker skin and learn what to take seriously and what to ignore.

    Good luck to ya.

    Not even close. Ignore people like yourself who have nothing constructive to say but thinks they're clever.

    ######, I didn't take my own advice.

    Perhaps this is a TMC thing. I know a guy that I drove up with had his cpap for 30 days and they said it wasn't enough data.
