[color=#0000FFost_uid0]"act like 5 year olds"

I think that is stretching the age a little bit! But who is that to say!

Besides it was a busy week on phone calls but slow on quality of drivers. The joy of summer![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#0000FFost_uid0]Grown adults acting like 5 year olds??

Surely you jest. After all the Truth seekers and speakers of the so called truth it is hard to imagine anyone acting like a 5 year old seeking employment.

I have been known to be in error from time to time[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000080ost_uid0]Beetle, I can attest to that. My Monday has started out with nothing but 'no experience', 'failed a drug test', 'live in Anchorage, Alaska', 'termed from my last job because I rear-ended a car', etc.

I have officially reached the bottom of the barrell, punched through, and started to dig.

*sigh*

BUT, on the plus side, TODAY, I actually received, IN THE MAIL, an UNBROKEN chocolate-chip cookie from Lincoln, Nebraska. Talk about the day changing for the better.

I can't believe you mailed a cookie! I'm STILL laughing about it! I shall enjoy it with my wife and Kevin (youngest son, still not in school), when I go home for lunch.

Thanks, my friend.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#8D38C9ost_uid0]<span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>Hey!!!
How come I didn't get a cookie??

Now here's one for the bottom of the barrel. Driver from Murrow was stopped by the local constabulary. I witnessed the traffic stop and didn't think anything about it. twenty minutes or so later I see the same truck in a convenience store parking lot. I pulled in and walked into the store and heard the driver talking rather loudly that the Wilson Police are a bunch of ass***** and he was being picked on because he drove a truck. Now me being me asked the "Wonder" driver why he felt as though the whole town ####ed in his cornflakes.
I was given the whole account. Now of course it is his tale to tell. After he was finished I asked him if he knew how to read. He got upset, but did answer with a yes.
The counter clerk then told this driver that the street he was on was restricted and there was a HUGE sign stating that fact. Like a 5 year old the driver had a temper tantrum. The clerk looked at him as if he was nuts. I paid for my drink and said as I departed "Look closely, that is the future of trucking!"

I did find the officer and asked him about the incident. He told me that a citation was issued and that he never met anyone who was as arrogant and rude as that driver. All I could say was that he didn't know the half of it.

5 year old adults?

I still didn't get a cookie!!! </span>[/colorost_uid0]
