    For the last few decades, just newspaper stuff. When I was younger, some warehouse jobs, some mailroom jobs, some retail. Did well at some, not so well at others.

    I think you should look at it as a challenge. If your suckitude keeps increasing, you might become the most overpaid person in your company.

    Everybody needs a goal.

    I'm still there. I don't know what to make of it. I can follow instructions pretty well. I don't get lost. I know where to park, what to do with the keys, etc.

    I just drive too slowly, which isn't really that slow. I go about 60-75 most of the time on the highway, sometimes 80 or so, but that doesn't cut it. These guys go 90-100.

    The assistant lead guy told me I need to step up my game.

    Fuck that. If I get stopped they're not going to pay the fine. They're not going to pay my higher insurance premiums for the next five years,

    I guess that means this job is not for me.

    I'd just rather have a job I can do well.

    What's wrong with that?

    The next time the assistant lead guy tells you that, ask him if they will pay the fine and the higher insurance premiums and if they will put that in writing. Any answer other than “yes”’from them gets a “then STFU” from you.

    Maybe they are telling you what they do in km/hr.

    That guy sounds like an idiot.

    And based on all your posts here, you are as well.

    So who's the bigger one?
