It happens to all of us. I had my week of venting & snapping about a month ago, except my venting was towards the students I TA and those I am involved with in Tech's outdoor program. Like you I felt bad afterwards and actually had a hard time sleeping. At least you realized it and are big enough apologize; that's more then allot of people I know.
Anyway, glad you are feeling better; but don't take too much advantage of that new credit card.
L.J.
on edit:
quote from me "that's more then allot of people I know"
I'm not referring to anybody on this site. I just wanted to make that clear.

glad you're back. probably many of us had made a post or sent an email that we later wished we had not. Or even said something in person.

Reputation is what others see, Character is what you do when no one sees.
Kenworth, it's up to you, but if it were me I'd go back and delete that other thread you started entirely. Out of sight and out of mind . . .
I won't say that I'm ecstatic about having you back because you still encourage overloading our trucks and you still tend to look for ways to start arguments, but I guess we need something to spice things up around here every once in a while. No hard feelings out of me. If everyone on this board believed the same things, it would get pretty boring around here.
Hope things get better for you. If not, move to the south. Construction is booming down here despite the economy. With the exception of our work in the semi-conductor market, we're trucking right along building things left and right.

Mike welcome back. frustration, stress and finaccial worries are a real bummer. All at the same time are even worse.
On the brighter side you can use this as a learning experience.
I do hope spring brings you much better circumstances. I have been in your mocansons year ago and it is no pinicknik either.
I agree with the other fellow on deletng the topic.
This brings something else to mind. This is what I was getting at on this star rating system in another thread. We all have had and will continue to have bad times. One slip and you know the rest. You can look at the screen from now own and unless who is on the other end tells you what they are going through you have no way of knowing what set them off. Hope none of you get to this point.
Mike it takes a big person to come back and admit what you have so heck that's worth some stars HUH [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] . Put a [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] on and hold your head up high and carry onYou take care and enjoy the forum with the rest of us O K [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Well thanks for the replys and I did delete the other bad post.
I know some of you don't like my ideas on loaded trucks but I can't help it. Trucking runs through my familly so this is the way I was tought.
It doesn't bother me driving trucks with very heavy loads or overloaded because I know how to handle them with ease.
I guess I have to realize not everybody has the same experiece I have in this field.
I don't believe in pulling oversized trailers with pickups because I feel they are not designed for it. I have seen too many close calls and accidents from guys pulling huge trailers with a baby truck.
I can't see pulling a 12,000 pound or more trailer being safe as thats alot of rolling mass pushing the truck.
I don't like whinners either and some things bug me and can't help expressing my opinion.
Well anyway I will try to keep some of my comments to a minimum.
Thanks
KW

Hi guys I slept on it last night and it wasn't right for me to blow up and call this website crap. Its the best thing I have found on the internet for getting information from. I'am sorry about offending you guys that operate this site and I realize
that things gotta change.
I guess I had anger building up in me for sometime because I haven't had any money making jobs for about 2 months.
Our economy is so dead here in B.C. Canada and jobs for Forestry/Construction guys like me are dissapearing fast because logging companies are going broke. Theres no major construction projects going on which makes for some real tough times.
Going from a 20 dollar an hour job to a $7 per hour job flippin burgers is Depressing.
The straw that broke the camels back was my damn internet wouldn't work properly pushing my frustrations to the limit.
It wasn't right for me to take my anger out on you fellow FORD men and women here on this website.
Got in a better mood though when I picked up my mail and my new higher limit credit card arrived. It put me in a better mood and I cooled down. Now I can finally get a bank loan to buy a newer Ford F-450 to replace my old 80 F-350 and also buy a tandem gravel truck so I can work this spring.
Well anyway I'am really sorry about my conduct yesterday and I hope you guys will welcome me back. If you don't want me to come back I won't.
Thanks
Kenworth (Mike)

I post this not just to you Kenworth but to all members of ford-diesel.com
Remember that for the majority of people that use this website do so for free. It pays for itself with donations and ads. I would think most everyone would agree that have benifited from the existance of this website in one way or another.
Also there are not many other options to choose from when it comes to Ford Diesel related discussion on the internet last I checked.
So when you have a problem, complaint or even a suggesiton on how the website needs to be run keep the above in mind and show Jason the respect he has earned...
Jason and the Admins call the shots so if they did not want you back you probably would not have had the chance to make your reply [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
