    You call us Abe non supporters super truckers but we aren't the ones who have figured out how to drive a rig without holding the wheel. Maybe one day you'll enlighten us to that little secret!

    Doesn't hurt me at all. He lashed out at Dinomite not me. Besides, I still have a job unlike some

    For your edification, I was moderately successful as a driver.

    Knock it off with the insults or this one will end up closed like the others. You guys have been doing a reasonably good job of debating this without getting personal. Let's get back to that, please.
     
    HotH2o, KE5WDP, truckon and 3 others Thank this.

    Trucker dave you sure like to hang out with the likes of us low class citizens who enjoy our job. Good for you sir. Your time in trucking felt like a prison. You did the right thing and got out. Going to college to better yourself. Good for you sir. Some of us enjoy our job. Yes you have to deal with the clowns, but that's in every industry. I personally take no offense in anything Dave says. If thinking he is better then somebody because he is not doing a certain job floats his boat. Have at it. When I was a fast food worker I was the best burger flipper there could be. When I was a cashier at the stop and rob. I was the best cashier. When I was delivering food products in a bobtail truck. I was the best at the company. There is only one goal in anything I do, and that is to be the best and do the best. I may not be the best, but at the end of the day. I know if I gave it my all. Or if I half stepped.

    I treat others as I want them to treat me. I have all the respect in the world for the person making my burger and for the one who does my taxes. Stop looking down on people brother Dave. Let's all enjoy making whatever we do. Be the best that we do. Just say no to bitterness. It's not that serious guys.

    I followed your link. It seems like Abe only started there on January 20 or so. Ripped that landing gear off on January 22 and they made him pay for it. Already disgruntled by late February. Surely I didn't read this correctly did I?

    That's the difference between success and failure right there.
