    The green and white bible is the law. A Man is guided by principles. Principles are greater than law.

    Example. You're driving down a city street. Cars parked on both sides of the street. There is a playground on the street and kids everywhere. The posted speed limit is 35mph. How fast do you drive down this road? Stupid will quote to you the posted limit. We're not looking for law, we are bringing that A Game down a tight road crowded with cars and kids.

    Nu uh! Not in this day and time. People think they can do and act any way they want, and you have no right to judge them accordingly.
    you guys are the cool kids!

    Funny story lol.

    So went out for the "driving test" I'm sitting in the bunk while my "training partner" is doing his drive. He is doing the whole search and destroy thing. Up and over a few curve and even 25 mph in a 55 zone. (That had me worried)

    Anyways. We get to t/a i go in grab a coffee and the instructor goes ok your up.

    So i asked where he wanted me to go and he reeled off some directions. So off i go. Now I'm like everyone else that's a driver and don't use a clutch so i just kept doing my thing. I got out of there and headed up towards 81. Few lights and never came to a complete stop just slowed down enough where i didn't need to. Anyways by time i get to the exit i look down and my coffee mug is still sitting on the floor beside me. I looked over and said I'm just going to pickup my cup and sit it in the holder so don't mark me down for "distracted driving" he just laughed and said you've done this before haven't you....

    Anyways safety manager came and got me when we got back and called me into the office. They are bypassing my "driving engineer" as i have more experience than he does.. just few more days going over there computer system and I'm in my own truck.
