Just called an A-hole today for first time.

[greengrenades]

I was in the middle of a busy downtown square this evening around 730 and some lady in front of me is driving reeeeaaaalllly slow to find that "premo" spot. Just as they pass someone who is backing up they deiced to back up so they can get it.

Well, that's where we got a problem. Because I don't back in the middle of downtown traffic.

First she wanted me to go around her into oncoming traffic, I just shook my head no. As she started to slowly back within inches I could tell she wanted me to back up. As I look in my side mirror, I got about 10 cars behind me and others honking at intersections backed up behind, because this lady NEEDS this spot. At this point at I put her in park and shut it down.

Long story , but not really short, the guy backing out of the spot managed to 5 point turn it out of there, as I pass the lady she yells, "!".

I couldn't help to drive away with a wicked eatting grin on my face.

We are probably called one multiple times a day, you just actually heard it this time.

If Photog was even arms length from operations he was. They all are.

He worked in operations for much of the early part of his career.

People that flick you off or call you names have problems. Don't take it personal. They just don't understand.

in feeder getting the middle finger is probably the same as being called an a -hole. happens very rarely. not in years actually. usually happens when on a 2 way road and the truck speed limit is 55 and everyone else is 65. you have a line of traffic behind you with no turn outs and thay have to wait for a passing lane.

it doesn't bother me at all.

have seen drivers pull up alongside and write down my truck number a couple times. asked dispatch if anyone called. the dispatcher laughed and said ya "we get calls. we kiss their asses and then ignore the info." unless its a hit and run.

one guy kept motioning me to pull over because apparently he wanted to "talk ". of course I didn't. that really pissed him off. he got behind me for a long time figuring id have to stop eventually. I was laughing if he wanted to follow me for 200 miles.

"pathetic" is one of those non-meaning words.
It is a simplistic opinion based on limited knowledge.

Doesn't hurt at all!

Sort of like when a 3 year old tells you you have bad breath.
You just have to chuckle.

Those 3 yr olds will tell you.

They'll pinch their nose and tell you. Lol

If I saw you, I'd certainly like you to pull over and have a discussion with you
