Well the other truck drivers used my truck today and they stole all my bungee chords and then they ripped the head off of a stuffed toy I had bungeed to the side of the truck. Just because I am driving in the parade and using the truck they usually drive, these guys are 40 and one is around his late 30's and they act like kids. Well today they parked in my way a bit and I thought I could get by them and tapped there truck I didn't even make a scratch from what I can see, so I left and decided to email my boss to let them know cause these other two will make it sound like I slammed into them and left the scene. When they were parking in the parking lot they started yelling at each other see you on monday, but that is my shift, so not sure what is going on with work. I think also cause I had to take 3 months off for a liver condition they might be looking for any reason to get rid of me. I love my job but lately it is getting to where I don't like it like I use too but out here there isn't much choice jobwise so you have to hold on to your job no matter what nowadays. I will find out monday if I have a job or not I guess, so pray for me. thanks!

" Good luck Mike, that's tough. Keep looking though cause if you're miserable, no amount of money is worth it. (in my opinion of course!) :)

I quit a job making a lot more than what I make now but I was miserable, I hated it, hated the people and the president of the company was a troll. Now I absolutely LOVE my job even though it pays less, I'm happy.

Prayers for ya, but still...even if you still have it...keep lookin for somewhere that you will be happy. "

" The truth will prevail Mike-I bet you present as an honest person-like you do on this board. They will know you are an upfront person. In the meantime try not to worry too much about it and enjoy your weekend. "

" I also left a higher paying, higher stress job. Now I work a second job to make up the money but have no commute. Same overall time, same money, less stress. But, I had to put my health first. I left a 15 year job with no full time work, but
I did it for the right reasons, my families support and it worked out.
Having said all that Mike, are you sure these guys aren't just messin with ya? You know the ole give him something to chew on for the weekend bit??
For me work is the hardest place to "Practice these principals in all our affairs" "
