KevBBR might well have one of the prime parking spots in town for the race. Imagine that? I'll be sure to provide plenty of pics for ya. Of course, this primo parking assignment will be incumbent upon KevBBR's agreement to stand on the front lawn and give 'bad directions' to all of the incoming race fans. Hell, they'll all probably end up in Daytona or Fontana if they listen to him.:clap: Followed, of course, by KevBBR's assignment to the various pit crews running that day. KevBBR will be the one on the radio screaming "Turn Right!" "Turn Right!" Call me KevBBR~~~~~~BelpreBBR |
You guys are killing me!:clap:

There is a big difference between not being liked for who you are as a person, and not being respected for your bad attitude. Quite frankly, 90% of the flack you receive has to do with your attitude! |

bummer.......you'll get over it. |
I do judge myself by how many friends I have on CAD. 9 to be exact which just reaffirms the fact that I absolutely suck as a human being.

I'm a little SLOW on this "friend" thingy! I thought accepting friends on MY profile automatically added me to theirs..... WRONG! Now, I gotta get around to "befriending" all those who've done the same to me.... someday! Probably right after I clear my PM's! ;) |
move along. there's nothing to see here.

whodini: friends
*Friends How many of us have them? Friends Ones we can depend on Friends How many of us have them? Friends Before we go any further, lets be Friends* Is a word we use everyday Most the time we use it in the wrong way Now you can look the word up, again and again But the dictionary doesnt know the meaning of friends And if you ask me, you know, I couldnt be much help Because A friend is somebody you judge for yourself Some are ok, and they treat you real cool But some mistake kindness for bein a fool We like to be with some, because they're funny Others come around when they need some money Some you grew up with, around the way And you're still real close too this very day Homeboys through the Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall And then there's some we wish we never knew at all And this list goes on, again and again But these are the people that we call friends When we first went out together, we barely knew each other We had no intentions, on becoming lovers But in no time at all, you became my girl Me and you, one on one, against the world Talkin on the telephone for hours at a time Or else I was at your house, or you was at mine Then came the arguements and all kinds of problems Besides making love, we had nothing in common It couldnt last long because it started out strong But I guess we went about the whole thing wrong Cause out of nowhere it just came to an end Because we became lovers before we were friends *Friends How many of us have them? Friends Ones we can depend on Friends How many of us have them? Friends Before we go any further, let's be Friends* You say you and your girlfriend were so tight You took her out with you and your guy one night She even had a set of keys to your home And you shared mostly everything you owned But as she shook your hand, she stole your man And it was done so swift, it had to be a plan Couldn't trust her with cheese, let alone your keys With friends like that you dont need enemies You wonder how long it was all going on And your still not sure if your man is gone You say, well if she took him he was never mine But deep inside you know thats just another lie And now you're kinda cold to the people you meet Cause of something that was done to you by some creep But nevertheless, I'll say it again That these are the people that we call friends *Friends How many of us have them? Friends Before we go any further, lets be Friends* *Friends How many of us have them? Friends One's we can depend on Friends How many of us have them? Friends Before we go any further, lets be Friends* *Friends How many of us have them? Friends One's we can depend on Friends How many of us have them?

again, if your life doesnt depend on what i bring home, then stfu about what i'm making. keep NEEDing 3000 miles to make ends meet, then being misrable because of the added stress of having to support a wife, an ex wife, 30 kids and take care of your trailer home. |
It's generally accepted that within a given profession, those with greater skills, expertise, education and/or experience , will earn a higher wage than someone with less or fewer of the same.
That's why someone who does hazmat or O/D and/or runs two lanes in the mountains gets paid more than someone who pulls a box down the interstate. That's why your paycheck is a reflection of your lack of skills and experience as a truck driver. If you were any good you would have a better job. It's just like your poor spelling is a reflection of your lack of intellect and/or education. And like the tone and timbre of your posts reflect your lack of interpersonal skills. |

'if you were any good'? First off, you dont know me. You dont know what was available to me when making the choice to start driving. I'm where i'm at, not because i cant go anywhere, fool. it is because i have tuition to pay for before i can move on....not to mention i'm comfortable right now with where i'm at. I dont have to bounce from job to job to job looking for more money just to make ends meet, or because i want/need more spendable cash. I dont want to be one of these drivers who jumps from driving job to driving job because s/he dont get their way like a little cry baby. How bad does that look....5 driving jobs in a 12-18 months, rather than 1-2 jobs in the same time period?? I graduated high school....yet you're still stuck having to come up with penis jokes. pathetic. whats more pathetic, is you grasping at straws, picking things out of the air in a desperate attempt to make me look clueless. like i'm the only driver here who misspells words. least i can put together a proper paragraph with proper punctuation. |

Driving to Detroit today, and ran across this. Ended up having flashbacks and a cold sweat, and got real nervous....praying to my Hawk idol on my dashboard (like in the movie Airplane?....but Hawk)...HAHAHAH
i ALMOST went thru it. Good thing i didnt, cause the 2nd bridge down the road was falling down. Whew.....everybody might have got what they wished for.....had had a concrete beam fall on my truck killing me. Man that would have sucked..... |
Quote:
How did this go from a thread about Hawk having a bad day and being down, to a thread about you? If you are happy making $500 to $600 a week, good for you Kevin. If I were working as a "company" driver, I would not settle for that sort of income. I held a job for two years, where I was only making $600 every two weeks take home. Left that job, to do what I am doing now. But for the better portion of two years, I did everything I could, to get that company to increase driver wages. A couple comments ago, you said this; Quote:
So.....You can assume I don't give a lot of credit to people whom job hop, holding 1-2 jobs in 12 to 18 months. It just does not make sense to hop jobs, unless you have a boat load of experience to support the moving. And Kevin....this is not a direct attack on you...this is just a general observation I am making, using what you posted as a focal point. |
I have been talking to drivers who have been turned down by some carriers due to job hopping. Companies are looking for a more stable workforce. I don't hire drivers whom I know job hop. It seems that there are so many who only want to stick with a job for only about 4-6 months and then go on to the next victim. It costs a lot of money for carriers to recruit, interview, drug test and run drivers through orientation. Drivers lose hundreds if not thousands of dollars in lost income due to switching jobs. When someone job hops it shows that the driver cannot solve problems and would prefer to run away from problems rather than attempt to solve or work through their differences. I have heard some really unbelievable reasons why a driver will leave a company. The interesting thing is that the driver takes the problems with them to the next carrier. One of the most memorable applicants that I can recall is a guy who told me that he had about 20 jobs within the last 2 years. :eek1: According to him it was due to all the owner operators he worked for who had poorly maintained equipment. :roll:

Since when does a thread stay on topic, anyway? and the last portion where you quote me about job hopping.....seems we agree on that point, yeah? |
