Letting a dumbass car merge in off a ramp and then rides there on your back trailer for 10 miles knowing your max speed is 65

Oh and when I am in my Big Truck... My turn signal does not mean I am asking to come over, it means I am coming over.

While I was talking I noticed that a team member I had an earlier counseling session with left me a "lovely" note on my desk telling me she quit. It was not your normal goodbye letter, including some personal insults that crossed the line. I had forgotten to end my voice message so my "that b****" was caught on the VM by the HR person.

Needless to say, I was called to the office and properly chastised. I don't blame the HR person for what she had to do, especially since she cut me some slack after reading the note.

But I had to complete an online course as a punishment...which really wasn't all that bad.

Yeah, I think I would have broke out the Johnny Paycheck and told them to take this job and shove it, before I stood up in front of 1000's of people and I don't even mind public speaking.

As far as your deal, I think everyone has had one of those oooops moments at work at one time or another. As time has passed, everything has become a lot more PC and the HR people are a lot more involved.

The problem is that you don't own the road.....turning your signal on to let me know you want to get over is great, but don't assume I am going to cower away and let you in. You have just as much responsibility to be a safe and courteous driver as I do in my personal vehicle.

And before you lecture me about the life of a truck driver.....I come from a family of them.

DJJasonp 01-29-2012 10:42 AM

probably already said......

When there is a 1/4 mile long line of cars to either exit or merge to another highway.....and a-holes who feel they are too important to wait like the rest of the population - and go towards the front of the line and then jam in/cut off a driver at the last second.

Not only are you an a-hole.....you're putting people's lives in danger.

Hell Yes I own the road... WTF is wrong with you, When I turn my turn signal on, you better mash the gas and get around me or lift...

Also, when you come to the end of an on ramp and there is not a place to get in... Don't expect me to stop on the highway to let you in... Press the gas pedal and get the hell on.

Also when I am trying to turn down a small street and you feel you don't want to back up to let me in, you can rest assured, you won't be able to go anywhere until you do so, this means it does no good to look down and act like you don't see me.

Just yesterday, the wife and I went to the movies (Underworld: Awakenings) and about a 1/2 hour in I hear a baby start crying. The dumb bidge did get up and take the baby out of the theater, but who brings a ****ing baby to a movie? And what kind of movie theater allows that shit in the first place?

First.....no, coming from a family of truckers doesn't make me a trucker driver or even a rookie, but it gives me good insight into what are the traits of a good steward of the road. And you are definitely not one in any way, shape or form.

You're the type of trucker who grew up thinking you own the road and screw anyone that gets in your way. My Dad had a great term for the new breed of trucker that came along like you....

It's simple....you don't own the road you share it with others. I just hope your attitude that everyone else better get out of your way or else, doesn't come back to hurt someone seriously.

That is high on my list of annoyances, right up there with teenagers treating movie theaters as their gathering places to gab and cavort.

I'm with you on this.....never bring a baby to the movie theater. I can tolerate it at a restaurant, because I know that screaming kids, crying babies, and people who think they are more important than others are a part of the experience you come to expect unless you are at a high price joint.

But there is no reason to see it at a movie theater.

And while I am at it...if you still have your cell phone on, and decide to answer it and talk during the movie, you better be a Dr.

Damn you old.

lcarus 01-29-2012 02:47 PM

There are probably a bunch of posts already about driving, but here goes. I HATE it when I'm on the highway (3 or 4 lane) and when approaching an exit someone always decides "Holy horse shit, I need to exit here but I'm in the far left or middle lane. I guess I have no choice but to quickly beeline over to the exit and **** anyone who is in the way." This happens nearly every day on my drive home.

Also when someone is exiting and right before they get on the ramp, they decide "Holy horse shit! I don't wanna exit here. I better make a quick beeline back onto the highway across all these divider lines, and **** anyone in the way!"

Why are there so many god damn people who have no idea where they're going? Figure out where the **** you're going and drive accordingly. Think ahead, you forced-sodomy-stain on society.

Lot's of theaters do. Depending on the movie, you might have a reasonable complaint or not. If you go to 'Cars 2' and complain about kids making noise, you are a dumba**.

However...that brings up another gripe of mine...which may be your actual gripe: Parents who take their children to inappropriate movies. After enjoying the first 2/3 of Kill Bill Trndowife and I were shocked to hear a little girl's voice say 'this movie is scary'. Turns out it was a girl probably around 4y/o.

A baby is one thing. I'm sure the parents are hoping it slept through the thing. I remember being a young Marine in a strange town wanting to take the wife on a date with the $20 in my pocket. No family to watch the kid, no money for a sitter. But taking a 4 year old is pretty obviously wrong.

If he has no more money than that he should use Redbox or something and save the rest of the cash for baby milk

Knowing that you are probably as much a prick in real life as you appear on this board, I am guessing that so far you have been lucky, or scared enough people to get out of your way. But all it takes is one mistake that that spotless record of yours is nothing but a tarnished trophy in the hands of a man wondering how "all this could have happened"

Marcellus 01-29-2012 06:15 PM

I am sure it has been covered already but people driving in the left lane going the exact speed limit or slower. Then when you come rolling up behind them they just keep on keepin on in the left lane. It makes it even better when you get another person driving the same speed in the right line next to them and they back up traffic for 1/4 mile.

I drive interstate to and from work almost every day so I see this a lot.

I know its silly but it drives me nuts.

Then these numbnuts start spending money right and left, furs, cars, after everything I ****ing told them. And then this pain in the ass, Morey, just hounding me for his cut. I got to find out if he talks to his wife Belle, and then im gonna stick a knife into the back of his ****ing head.

My example of the day:

The dogs were barking at something today out in the alley, so I went outside to find out what the hell was going on. Some Slippery Larry contractor was back there unloading a bunch of shit into my city garbage container.

Me: Hey there strokestick, are you my new neighbor or something?

Slippery Larry: No

Me: Yeah, I knew that, then why are you dumping your crap out into my garbage container? I have plans to clean out the garage and am going to need the space.

Slippery Larry: I don't know.

Me: Do you live in a house, do YOU have a garbage container?

Slippery Larry: Yes, but it's full, so I'm dumping it in here.

Me: No, no you're not, try the city dump. Don't let me ever catch you back here pulling the bullshit again, or we are going to have a big problem.

At that point, he high tailed it out of there.

Like I said, it wasn't like the guy was back there trying to break into my shop, but it rubbed me the wrong way.

I wouldn't call that 'small'. Talking in the elevator on your cell phone, writing a check in the grocery and not having everything filled out by the time their done being packed, not using a turn signal...little annoying.

Some guy dumping trash in your private container without your knowledge or consent is a couple notches higher. Hell, he could have been getting rid of who the hell knows what...

I was once a couple minutes into the little old lady going through this routine when I ponied up the dime (think she needed 6 cents). She was gracious about it, as I said something very polite to help more things along, which was good since I half expected her to be insulted. My wife gives me this look and I was like "life is too short to waste spending extra time standing in line to pay for freaking groceries" (or whatever it was we were buying).

1. anything that suggests that YOU and your time are more important than someone else and their time. This relates to a million things all day every day. People being late to an appointment meeting, or people cutting you off in line, or whatever.

2. someone that cuts me off just to go slower. This sometimes happens while driving, but usually it's my kids. They get my foot in their behinds for it though. Drives me nuts. DON'T SPECIFICALLY MOVE IN FRONT OF ME JUST TO WALK SLOWER THAN ME, WTF?!?

3. being rude without reason. The shopping cart in the parking space is a classic example. Just rude/ignorant behavior.

4. being petty.

5. people that overcomplicate/overthink things that really, really just aren't that complicated or difficult.

6. failure to learn from one's mistakes. Repeating your own mistakes, to me, is the definition of stupid. Being smart, to me, is in large part learning to not only not repeat your own mistakes, but not repeat the mistakes of others that you see/hear about.

I'm sure there's others, but those are the ones that come to mind.

I work in a downtown area with lots of pedestrians and lots of cars, and the sidewalks aren't as wide as they should be since the city lets restaurants put their tables out on them.

Sometimes you'll be walking along and have to weave/squeeze by a slow walker. Then you get to the end of the block and are waiting on cars, and Mr./Ms. Slow Walker will amble up behind everyone, then push between people until they're standing in the front of the pack, which means that you have to weave/squeeze by them again on the next block, and the next.

There are a dozen people standing there waiting for the light to change, and you're the 2 mph person coming up behind them. First, do you recognize that they all passed you 20 seconds ago? And second, why do you think they're standing on that corner? Why do you have to push your way to the front? Is it possible that perhaps they're all waiting for the light to change just like you are?

A bad case of the hiccups really piss me off.

When I'm in line at QT patiently waiting, and some inconsiderate tool with a shitload of items decides he's too good for the line and just starts his own line by placing his shit on the counter and standing next to the guy at the front of the line. Of course the inattentive and/or busy QT employee doesn't notice that he wasn't there first and helps them before the people that were there first. People don't need to buy a whole ****ing grocery list of items at a convenience store anyway. Go to the god damn grocery store. Cheaper anyway.

Also when somebody in line at QT decides to buy a bunch of different random lottery scratcher tickets and decides to scratch them all off at the counter after purchasing them. Do that shit somewhere else. There are other people in line trying to buy gas or cigarettes. You're gonna lose anyway.

Lots of QuikTrip ones. Here in Tulsa, QuikTrips are bananas. It's not uncommon to not be able to find a parking spot or a pump spot open. There can be what seems like 50 people in QT all the frickin time.

Also when bums stand out in front of QT and ask for change. They never just ask in passing "You got any spare change?", they always try some bullshit story and waste my time. "Hey bra, you got a second? Hey my car ran out of gas and I got 2 kids and an old lady in my car and it's cold outside and they're hungry." **** off and get a job you piece of shit.

Also when someone in front of QT wants to sell you a rap CD. Nobody wants your shitty CD.

It really does. I guess I need to lessen my dependency on convenience stores.

that.

my typical response is "We'll have kids as soon as you want to give us $1k /mo for childcare and other items necessary for child".

at this point, it's either saving for retirement, or have a kid.

We're tight on money and stressed out as-is....why do we need a kid? lol.

That's a good thing, those nursing homes when you have no offspring to take care of you can be damned expensive.

This is sexist, and I apologize for that ahead of time and recognize that it's a generality and not always true.

If you ask me to move a piece of furniture with a guy, we're like synchronized swimmers. Around corners, up stairs, we each know where the other one is going and what they're doing. It doesn't matter if the other guy is tall, short, black, white, smart, dumb, or if he's a tribesman from New Guinea. We pick the thing up and we're like Chang and Eng Bunker.

But if you ask me to move a piece of furniture with a woman, we're negotiating and banging walls and I'm always saying stuff like, "Tilt it a little. No, the other way. No, not that way, the other way. Further. Now lift. No, lift further. See that thing over - OW! CRAP! MY FINGER JUST GOT SMASHED IN THE DOOR JAMB!" And when the furniture is finally moved we're not getting along very well.

people that yell at me when I throw shit in their trash bins.

Seriously?
-Ok, people that chew with their mouth open and make "chomp" sounds
-people that sit right behind me when I'm in the slow lane doing 5mph over the limit. (pass me already)
-people that play their music so loud I can hear it with both of our windows up. ur not cool
-people that cuss in front of children
-people that smoke in restaurants. I don't go around farting while you eat, so don't blow smoke while I eat. Blow one after outside.

Yes, the kinder, gentler sex does not take well to shouting nonsensical commands at them while lugging around a piece of furniture.

Kids are awesome, which is why I'm glad some of my friends have them, so I can witness the awesomeness before going home to my clean & quiet house.... or 'like' the awesomeness without every leaving the couch.

I know its silly but it drives me nuts.

Its not silly the people who do that are idiots. It happens to me every ****ing day. Those people need their damn Drivers Liscense revoked.

I get you don't like others kids. I'm sure you never cried in public as a child. If I heard someone say something like that if one of mine were crying, I'd gladly spend the night in jail for knocking their teeth out.

I can totally respect that then. As you know, however, there are too many Duke/NC fans across this nation for nothing other than the sake that these program are always winning. These are the bandwagon fans I was referring to.

As would most fathers. I doubt that guy actually says those things where he can be heard. Even thinking something like that shows an off-kilter person.

Of course the inattentive and/or busy QT employee doesn't notice that he wasn't there first and helps them before the people that were there first. People don't need to buy a whole ****ing grocery list of items at a convenience store anyway. Go to the god damn grocery store. Cheaper anyway.

Also when somebody in line at QT decides to buy a bunch of different random lottery scratcher tickets and decides to scratch them all off at the counter after purchasing them. Do that shit somewhere else. There are other people in line trying to buy gas or cigarettes. You're gonna lose anyway.

Lots of QuikTrip ones. Here in Tulsa, QuikTrips are bananas. It's not uncommon to not be able to find a parking spot or a pump spot open. There can be what seems like 50 people in QT all the frickin time.

Also when bums stand out in front of QT and ask for change. They never just ask in passing "You got any spare change?", they always try some bullshit story and waste my time. "Hey bra, you got a second? Hey my car ran out of gas and I got 2 kids and an old lady in my car and it's cold outside and they're hungry." **** off and get a job you piece of shit.

Also when someone in front of QT wants to sell you a rap CD. Nobody wants your shitty CD.

Sounds like what you really don't like is going to QT. Whatever that is...

I had one daughter in master choir and still have a daughter still in orchestra.

...at the end of every performance, they have people from the school stand up to be recognized and then patronize the parents for "letting" them teach our children and thank us for being there.

The reason you have noticed this is because most women have the spatial awareness of a vision-impaired lump of jello that has been dead for 3 weeks and left in a vat of hydrocholoric acid and have moved fewer pieces of furniture in their life than you have hairs left on your stick figure dome.

Frosty 01-30-2012 04:31 PM

Pretty much everything has already been mentioned but I have a few more.

People that make noise when they eat. I can't be in the same room as my father-in-law when he eats cereal in the morning. He slurps it and then makes smacking noises while chewing. Great guy otherwise.

The fat vultures that block the aisles circling around the free food samples at Costco. This always pisses me off. Park the cart somewhere else and walk over to get it. Or better yet, don't eat a bunch of junk food when you go shopping.

I've mentioned this before but I still run into it all of the time - people that drive slow on a two lane road and then turn into Mario Andretti when they get to a passing lane, only to drive slow again afterward. Canadians and old people in Subarus are 100% likely to do this. A related peeve are people that speed up when you catch up to them on the freeway and either not let you pass or will speed up and pass you back after you pass them only to slow down again.

People that don't know how a roundabout works and will either come to a dead stop before entering it even if there is room to go or will just barge right in even though there is a car.

Snow plow drivers that have had nothing to do all winter but can't be bothered to go out a second time when it finally does snow to clear the slush before it freezes solid again.

Boy, this is true. When we did our remodel/rebuild, it was a total exercise in patience to try to get my wife to understand how things would lay out. We had to stake out or lay tape down to mark room size, etc before she could see it.

Bandwagoner. No, really. Back then they actually had bandwagons.
