    Dude has turned into a major asshole for no other reason. He starts drama in a train server for his entertainment. He doesn't rock, he's a major clown

    I don’t drive anymore. Changed jobs. But one of the best parts about driving for me was kids in mini vans on the Highway or on the corner doing the honk signal. A lot of us truckers enjoy doing this for kids and truly would be obnoxious about it if we could.
