So, in just a bit under 2 weeks, I will head to Dayton,OH for company orientation. after a couple days of that. I head out on the road with a "trainer" for who knows how long.... That isn't going to be very fun, hope the person knows what they are getting into cause me personally having to deal with someone for more then a hour or so tends to make me a bit mean, and the longer it goes the worse it gets. It's not that I hate people, I just hate people in my face for long periods of time. And once I get annoyed I get mean. So hopefully it gets over very quick. and once that is over I will end up with my own truck...

If the company is somewhat smart they will have the "trainer" female. I will be a bit nicer. Sorry guys but men just annoy me quick. Anyway who ever it ends up being, I sure hope they follow my ground rules. Important ones don't touch me at all. especially if I am asleep. and no snoring cause I'll toss you out of your own truck. and third TAKE A SHOWER. seriously if I smell any funk, I'll toss you out in a new york minute.

Anyway, if I never come back im ether dead or in jail.

I am sure you will do just fine. Just remember that this would just be temporary. Good Luck

Well, this is certainly going to be an adventure... for all of us!

I was excited to see you posting a thread, Wise. I hope you learn a lot and hopefully get paired up with someone whose company you might even enjoy? I know, it probably sounds like wishful thinking but I hope that's what happens.

Please let us know how it goes. I am looking forward to hearing the next chapter in your story.

I'm excited for you wisebeard! What a huge chapter for your life. I'll be praying for you to have patience and restraint while spending so much time with someone else. Please update us when you can. You'll do great I'm sure.

Hahahaha, made my day, thanks :)

Spent most of my life with an underlying dislike of people in general too, but these days i am trying to be more positive.
Incidentally, i grew up with two older sisters, so women definitely annoy me allot faster than men, even despite if the woman is good looking, because for me, attitude is what counts the most.

DO NOT run over anybody. No matter how small their sub-compact car is and how large your truck is. No matter how they cut you off, or flipped you off, or ticked you off. Running over them is out of the question. It's just not polite.

(And it gets those nice guys in the cars with the flashing lights on top all excited and they have to make you stop and talk to you about it.)

Pack a lot of ammo though. Nothing wrong with shooting out a tire here and there, if you're a good enough shot.

Good. You still haven't gone on that date with MollyConnor even though you were the one who asked her out (I'll find the quote for you if I have to).

Perhaps I'm wrong and you secretly PM'd her your Skype address and did go on a net date, but I have no evidence of such.

Thing is, you have mentioned it being one of your pet peeves when women do things like that :(.
