    Seriously. And even after almost every driver who replied told him he was wrong he still insists he was right.
    That kid is a real winner. Or maybe a whiner. Weiner?

    Q. You know how you can tell who is a pilot at a party?
    A. Look at the size of his watch.

    Q. Do you know how you can tell the guy you just met is a pilot?
    A. Don't worry, he will tell you.

    Q. Do you know what a pilot says after the first hour on a date?
    A. "But enough about me..."

    So what does it mean when a guy doesn't wear a watch?

    I know this really got off course and everyone just about forgot about what the subject was by the distraction of the cops being called.

    So what, people call the cops on truck drivers for parking in a parking lot, driving to slow, driving through their neighborhood. Its not like cops don't get petty calls, the receiver was in the wrong.

    Oh, they were VERY interested in the actions of an overly aggressive driver...pulled out into heavy traffic (nearly getting hit), irratic lane changes (without signalling), extreme tailgating (as in you could step from his front bumper to their back bumper at 35-40 mph), and attempting to pass in a lane that was ending (nearly pushing the other vehicle into oncoming traffic). Yup, they were EXTREMELY interested, until they asked if I got the license plate of the vehicle.

    "Yes, I did...and you shouldn't have too much trouble tracking it down, because it's one of yours!"

    Suddenly, they didn't give a crap.

    Had something similar happen ( in my case person wasn't just being rude , in fact he went just shy of nuts on me ).... once the shock of what was happening dawned on me I walked away right in the middle of it ( back to the truck ) ... called the local Police Dept. ... just like Harry Potter magic the problem was solved ... came to the point where I could have pressed harassment charges on the person .... the head of HR from that company even got in on it.

    It was a wild day
