    I reckon you’re talking about the same one.

    Hey guys (talking to the lurkers and the wannabes and the sidewalk sissies):

    Don’t do stuff like this. It is painfully embarrassing. There is no winning a Loser Contest. Any guy that agrees to stupid pet tricks because some heifer is hinting at possible sex is a loser! That’s like paying a lot lizard for a “maybe.” $50s right now and maybe she will come back to you.

    I’m going to tell you guys a secret...the most valuable thing that you can ever in life, give another person is your time. If you do not value your time, how in the Hell is anyone else? If you tell me 0700, you’d better be there at 0700, because I am leaving without you. I don’t do late. Not for free. As soon as you realize that someone is wasting your time, cut them off. What happens if you are late to court?

    Value your time. Value others’ time. It is extremely disrespectful to another person if you are late. Bad business, hand. Did you know that,in trucking, that simply being prompt consistently, will put you ahead of the pack?

    Now, if you are on time, you automatically up your value. Next step, make everyone else value your time. If they can’t be on time, cut them off. Repeat after me,”I DONT DO LATE.”

    “But Six, what if you had a date with a fine woman and she showed up late?”

    There are two reasons that people are late.

    1. Crap happens (cars break down, bridges fall, traffic doesn’t move...etc.
    2. They did not PLAN to be on time. If that’s the case, the show must go on. Go ahead and order your dinner.

    Thanks fellas, to be fair we didn't do much in the looks department, mostly mechanical things. Changed all airlines to plastic, new fuel and coolant lines, double framed from sleeper back, new airbags, torque and transverse rods, changed the 5th wheel setup to a solid mount, 8 new tires, etc etc etc. First trip with it will certainly bring other issues to the forefront lol

    I’m known around the terminal as the company ###-hole.

    Why?

    Because I have zero respect and even less patience for people that can’t get their #### together.

    I once tried to impart a little wisdom on a new guy. A week later he decapitated a trailer. I acknowledge this fool’s existence no longer. I don’t do “late” OR “stupid.”
