    Do you have any idea how silly you sound.It really is laughable.This thread isn't at all about bullying or harassing anybody and the new ppl find it just as funny Its about having a little harmless fun which makes the workplace more enjoyable.I don't know if you been with a trainer yet but I sure do pity the poor trainer.He touches you on the shoulder and you'll get him for harassment.If you find the ppl and this thread so offensive to your virgin eyes why don' you just skip over it and visit other threads.

    LOL, this is getting fun! Many of these are also good ways to train/familiarize new people with equipment and methods(like my earlier post about finding a trailer in a pick-up lot). As most of us know, there can be two almost identically numbered trailers in a lot, and someone not paying close attention could easily hook up to the wrong one. What better way to train a rookie, than throw them hoax trailer number drill! All good fun.

    well, all I got to say dca is you better find a new name to go by on here, as wyldhorses has given the indications that people should be sued for harassment, bullying, etc....and I am sure there is a lawyer out there trying to figure out some way to sue you for the way you posed that question.....

    don't worry about the gooberment taking our freedom of speech away as we have people out in our society now that are doing it for free......lmao....

    I got bullied all through school... But even I know the difference between good clean humor and harassment.

    ...harassment is the ahole over the cb preaching fire and brimstone to everyone. I got ahold of one tonight by his balls and wrapped his sermon around them. He wasn't too happy that I knew more about the bible than he did. So, apparently that makes me the son of satan? Huh...okay.

    The reason people get butthurt over stuff like that is for two reasons. One, they want attention. They aren't actually hurt, but they don't like not having the focus on them. Two, it's a history thing. More correctly, fear. Fear that someplace they thought was safe, isn't.

    ...either way, I've never heard anyone say no to a good joke. Yes, some can be offensive but if the teller knows that it'll offend them a GOOD joker will know it isn't the time or place. The kind that wyldhorse is talking about are the ones that just keep at it.

    My SNI trainer and I poked fun at each other the whole time we drove. We had fun and both of us still do it when we see each other on the yard. It's our way of saying "hello." It's only after that the formalities come like, "where are you headed?"

    Oh oh! I know a good lawyer! Got billboards up all over! "Been hurt?" "Hurt by a trucker?"

    You know...that guy who's standing on top of the semi trailer...
