Stop being such an utterly hopeless asshole and learn to read and think cogently. I was clearly referring to the quality of the jobs, as jobs, and not putting down anyone who does them.

Nearly all work is dignified by necessity; which I have said before more than once. Now read that sentence and think about what that statement might mean before you engage in the childish device of inventing motives for others.

thank you.

It looks as though rubato strongly agrees with your assessment of him, Crackpot... :)

I'm still trying to get my mind around the idea of rube calling someone else an "utterly hopeless asshole"...

Though credit where credit is due...

It seems to me that rube has, in the main, been uncharacteristically civil since his return from his holiday...(at least for him...perhaps it mellowed him out somewhat...)

I'm sure it's too much to hope that this pattern could become the standard, (and admittedly it's not consistent; he's also called anyone who opposes "reparations" "evil"...oh well, progress, not perfection...) but I thought I'd make note of it ...

I Cant help that:
A you don't know any OTR truckers.
B Know enough about the complexities of OTR shipping to know that it will be a long time until that particular job is handed to a computer.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.
