    I hate when there friends or family are standing in front of you, bull####ing, and the cashier is extra slow, just so they can finish there stupid chat about jerry ray, getting latisha pregnant, and bobby joe is in jail for beatin up on jerry ray cuz he thinks its his baby. and the woman in front of you says "Yeah, i know, I think I'm gonna stop going to the family reunion all together. I'm tired of the drama between them three."!!! LMAO

    So,I found a new place to give my 2 cent not that is worth anything but here its goes.Let me give you little background.I worked at the t/a in Stafford,Mo for 2 yrs as waitress.I made darn good money not for being nice to the driver but abuse them lol.Okay that didnt sound good but more less joking around and having fun,But there was driver like thunder that just had sit wrong on BOB and there was nothing you could do but throw a plate of food at them and think huh one of these days he will see that thing sticking out of the seat.Thunder your a new driver which mean your paid was what .33 a mile and that is just the high side of it.Well my husband own his own truck and makes a little more then that but does that make him better then you.heck no it makes him make more then you and that is all.I now work Cust service for big toy company.You are the person that calls in thinking the world owes you something,your the person that as soon as you get off the phone i get to laugh at because your that dumb.You know if your life is that great that the only thing you have to cry about is someone asking you if that is all,Then man you have great life.NOT.Let me tell you what i get from your post and please tell me if im wrong.You had great job made great money but now your truck driver and for company that im sure is always the back end of the all the jokes and your trying to so hard to find your place,and in turn step on the "little " people because they make less money then you.Grow the heck up!!!

    no rickG i dont think newbie make less then cashier,I was saying that season driver make more then newbies.But its doesnt make the person better it just mean they make more money,And before that start another post.Im not saying that newbie are better or worse then season driver or season driver are better then newbie.
    Fox thanks my thoughts or just that my thoughts lol.
    I come across people like this everyday at work.That think one they spend alot of money in the store i work so there for they should be treated better then the person that only spend a little,Or the kicker was the guy that called that made 6 fig and he was mad because we would not let him return a 100 dollar item and it was going to cost the company alot of money.I guess my point was to say.To thunder,Dont turn your nose down on a person because you think your better then them,And if you think they care they upset you wrong,your the one looking like butt by acting that way.Bring me to another cust she standing scream in the store and says look what you made me do everyone looking at me and this bad for your company.My thoughts bad for the company huh if they keep letting you act that way with small children around yes,But you only have to accept what your doing to yourself.Guess if people like thunder would stop and own there own action and stop blame everyone else because of there bad day or bad life dont you think the world would be a better place.

    I'm a very mellow guy and very patient. Get asked this question often " Is that everything". It's routine to say, Can I have a winning lottery ticket. Always gets a quick laugh. ( never played the lottery ) I win each day by not playing.

    I alway say how you doing, Not really i give a crap. but small talk goes a long way getting what you want. Like one post mentioned, may have a 2 for 1 deal on smokes. That is hiding below the counter.
