Mackmann Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 For some reason boss man will not buy a MACK for his lowboy tractor. He says macks are only good for dumptrucks.

We fight about it all the time.Don't fight with the boss; you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Use the Jedi mind trick and say "you will buy a new TITAN."BTW, while you are in the bosses mind, ask him which UPS truck did he steal your drive wheels from?

Rob Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 it's aAnd there's your problem right there.

The right lane on I-25 in Wyoming was solid ice where the snow had been packed. The left lane offered a little more traction on the snow, and I was in the left lane just motoring along when I saw a bull rack coming up behind me. I got in the right lane to let him pass and saw a little blue car ahead of me. Didn't take long to figure out the car was barely moving. I'd look in the mirror, look at the car-look in the mirror,look at the car. It was obvious the truck wouldn't get by in time for me to fall in behind him, and I knew if I touched the brakes there was going to be a helluva crash, involving at least myself, so I hit the shoulder and passed the car on the right, by the guardrail. Shortly afterwards I got the 2 packs of Marlboros. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can side with you on the nerves bit after an experience like that. I've never smoked, drank, or used illicit drugs to calm them, just performed more work to accomplish more.Glad you got through it.Don't know what I'd do without you to harrass.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
