Good Lord man-- where's your sense of humor. In your retirement I picture you sitting on your front porch throwing rocks at little kids because they make fun of you and call you Mr. Grumpy... Upstate--Upyours |

I believe Really Old Driver refers to Rod -but then again who knows. Must be me as my goal in life now that I'm retired is to add little or nothing of substantive value to the threads anyway. But you have to admit- I'm good at it. |

Something else I have noticed is that in a huge number of cases, men take much more care of where they park their car or truck than where they park their d!&k. shame really. And sorry if that offends, its pretty hard to beat around the bush on this one. No pun intended.

Rep Power: 6134 | Re: any of you ever "hook up" with customers??? My hubby just told me a story. Years and years ago when he was still living in MI he had a friend that was a UPS driver. MY hubby came home one day to find the UPS truck parked in his driveway with a strange car next to it. He walks into his house and his friend and the woman are in the house just getting dressed. Now what are friends good for if not to borrow things? LOL ROFLMAO

(sorry about hyjacking this thread------again)  | Personally, if you didn't have a sense of humor, would you have made it to retirement or would you have ended up in a straightjacket from being driven to insanity or in jail from killing one of the stupid bosses we all have. |

One driver told me he bought a card for a customer who he overheard was having a birthday. Long story short this gal got awfully possessive and he had to explain it was just a thoughtful gesture. |

| Yes sir, and many of them just as interested in getting half of what you have made and have, and others interested in that child support too.
Problem is, they dont wear a sign telling you what you are in for, or what it will cost you long term.

Sounds like UPS "math". You know, you have 150 stops, so they pull 10, and you end up with 160. |
