Dimwit post regarding drunk driver

Posted By: Another mother on 2005-07-06
In Reply to: well, now I know why you are a bitter, name-calling person. - that is your consequence for marrying someone who

If nothing else, that should tell you what effects bad decisions have. If you read my post you would have gotten that I suffered but more importantly, my children did. Belive me, I'm not bitter. I am sorry that my children had to live without a father, but I am grateful that they learned about alcohol and loss of control. As for me, I supported my children very well, and we survived as a family and no one had to hang their head. I'm extremely grafteful that no innocent person was killed. And yes, I thought I could change an alcoholic. Bad choice. I'm willing to accept my bad choices, what's YOUR excuse for bad manners and you are also a DIMWit who probably "teaches" her children the right way to drink. What an assine post you put on the board. Anyone who has had a loved one killed by someone else's bad choice probably wouldn't appreciate your post, but I do. I appreciate the fact that you need help.

    Hey, dimwit. These are MY opinions.
    like the OP suggested.

    That is MY reply to the woman starting the thread.

    MY suggestion is to walk out, leave him, leave it all. Take her kids and leave.

    And YES -- I LEFT.

    The life and wellbeing of herself and her children are what's important here -- not sending the children off and then staying and purposefully provoking this abuser to hit her more. It may cost her very life the next time.

    What an inexusable jerk to EVER suggest someone in an abusive situation to purposefully provoke another attack.


    talk about sounding like a dimwit!
    they dont arrest someone to ask them questions.  They arrested the father.  yes, they let him go, but they arrested him because they thought he knew something and was NOT cooperating.  They don't hold people for no reason, especially for 60 days.  I guess you don't watch the NEWS.  They DO have evidence against this boy, they just are not releasing WHAT IT IS.  Where have you been??????
    Drunk idiot at that!!! LOL

    I didn't say who GETS DRUNK
    Take a chill pill!
    Who needs an excuse to get drunk?

    no, Star got drunk on herself........nm

    Heck, I'm drunk now!

    Laura w/drunk huby
    Get a voice activated one,keep it in a central spot where he's usually starting his crap. My ex had total amnesia the next day after his drunken rants...one night, he got so vicious, he started spewing how he was going to kill me..a long slow death...my DD had the wisdom to turn the recorder on...he never touched me, but I got us OUT before he could...That tape sealed my case on domestic violence charge AND the subsequent divorce....you could have heard a pin drop in that courtroom. Again, did not touch me "that night" but it was his thought that counted, against him LOL
    Poor Kaysar...and Beau is a bad drunk!
    I felt so sorry for Kaysar last night - that @!## Jennifer and her backstabbing! And BEAU - Wow. He does not hold his liquor well, does he? That entire HOUSE is nutso now - they are soooo hateful!
    In my family, ANY day is an excuse to get drunk, and get-togethers
    just make it more so.  Used to hate it when I was a  kid, and still hate it today. 
    I suppose given a choice I'll take DRUNK!

    My boss routinely gets drunk during holidays and fires

    Zip Driver

    You may try downloading new drivers for your zip drive. Sometimes when the driver goes bad it will generate that error.


    Also you can do a search on the specific error you are getting.


    Here is a copy of links I found. Hope they help.

    A 16-YO driver

    I just want opinions here...


    My DD's best friend is 16...she got her license in July.  The BF has a 17-month-old brother that her mom allows her to drive around...I don't mean just around where we live, I mean on the highway...a very busy, main, 4 lane highway...


    My question is, do y'all agree or disagree with this?  Do you think it's really, really dangerous and just too much of a risk to let this girl drive her baby brother around?


    It's probably pretty apparent that I think it is absolutely crazy! It scares me so much when I know they are out running around in her car.  Is it just me or do y'all feel this way?


    My dog has a driver's license. sm
    He loves to chase cars, but the high gas prices have forced him to get a job so he can continue.
    got cut off....2 different driver's licenses...
    Really, I don't want to *judge* anyone's life - judge not lest ye be judged.....and all that....plus it's a rarity to find a *jury of one's peers* in this life (my opinion only)
    Do you know where to find the driver for it? nm

    Might be a driver problem, too. nm

    You think being bus driver is easy? You never
    x
    They DON'T need you driver's license number.
    Do not give anyone that number ever. Be smart with your private information. Never put your driver's license or SS# somewhere just because they have a line for it and that includes the doctor's office.
    maybe corrupt print driver?

    Hi,


    If you are starting the fax process by printing to a fax printer, then chances are good the print driver has gotten corrupted. (Common with all print drivers.)


    If this is the case, then (1) delete the fax-print driver from Control Panel | Printers and Faxes, and then (2) reinstall the print driver.


    After install, send a test fax (not a real transcription) to see if the problem has been fixed.

    I am a sub bus driver and make $15 an hour - sm
    doing that, though I never know when I am working, waiting on a route....when that happens I will bring home about $1200 a month which will be nice on top of any MT work I do (still plan to do this but cut back some when I do finally get a route). So for now $60 for working 4 hours subbing for another driver, I can live with. Makes my life a little easier.
    MT vs Bus driver? Give me a break

    For heaven's sakes.  Did it ever occur to you that if you can't decide, however rhetorically, whether to be an MT or drive a bus that you don't belong in this profession? 


    I'm SO TIRED OF LISTENING TO MTs complain.  If you don't have a passion for what you do, here's a tip:  DO SOMETHING ELSE! 


    You don't develop a passion for something just because it pays enough!  There are a lot of facets to passion.  And if you're doing something you don't have a passion for you're wasting your life.


    Why is the fact that you're not making enough money or you're underappreciated SOMEBODY ELSE'S FAULT!  It's YOUR fault. 


    I'd think it would be long-haul truck driver or
    long haul truck driver, depending on account specs and whether or not they use hyphens.
    My boyfriend who is a school bus driver now makes more than me...
    by $1.00 an hour. Only because they have a union, I guess, because the trend now would be to make them slave labor, as well....but their union holds on by a thread...

    I have been an MT for over 14 years, started in the hospitals making what I make now, and am now working for a company (top of the line in the business) who says to stay competitive the MT pay has been cut. I was told to work more hours to make up the difference.

    This is no longer a profession, and I think if we are suddenly required to be certified (which the AAMT is pushing very hard), I would highly contest this as I no longer consider myself a professional. We get paid only per line, lose our health benefits, if we do not work a required amount of hours, and are treated as laborers, not professionals.

    Does anyone know, if any other 'professions' require certification for nonhourly positions, no guaranteed work, and no real long-term job security...

    For myself, I can barely pay my rent now, there is no way I could afford a certification.

    In other words, I would be expected to act as a professional, but would never ever be treated as one. I mean, what would WE get out of it?

    Does anyone care anymore about people. When I first started working at 14, every job I ever had employees were always treated like they mattered...and were the heart of the job, the old 'we are nothing without the employees' - that is all thrown out like trash now and the mantra is we are nothing, we do not matter, we can be replaced, shut up and just do your work, your paycheck is your reward. What a bunch of crap and what a way to keep people down.

    I was in shock when I saw my paycheck, and my boyfriend is making a whole dollar more an hour than I am...and that was a good, full 2 weeks of work for me, with the most lines I have typed since being with this company.

    Can you imagine...
    Another thing you might try, is reinstalling the driver for your USB port. SM
    If you right click on your "My Computer" icon, click "Properties", then click on the "Hardware" tab.  Then click on the "Device Manager" button.  You'll see a list of all your hardware devices.  Find your USB devices and double click.  You'll see the button for reinstalling the driver.  Go from there and follow the steps.
    Well it said there are no drivers or anything else and I have no idea about loading a driver.
    It works fine in DQS so I dont know about this.  I guess I will just forget the job because it is a very long test and to do it with key controls is horrible.
    Did you load the correct driver for the printer from the CD?

    A breast exam is mandatory for a driver's license??
    I cannot imagine a state where it is mandatory for a young girl getting a driver's license to have a breast exam. That just sounds, as does the pressuring you state by the doctor for the cervical cancer shot, so farfetched to me that it is completely unbelievable. I read very well, thank you and am unbelieving of most of what you have posted. Sounds like not only are you stressed but you have some mania going on there.

    No breast exam required in Tn and Ga for driver's or work
    NM
    A breast exam is required for a driver's permit in your state?
    --some pervert state senator would dream up. What state do you live in? THAT I would be angry about.
    What state requires a breast exam for a driver's license?!?!
    nm
    Check your USB drivers. The printer works off the printer driver. The pedal needs a joystick

    driver in order to work.  You have to configure your USB port for this.


    No, I doubt that a breast exam is included in the physical exam for a driver's licence..sm
    Since when did they start to ask for a physical exanm to obtain a driver's licence?
    This must be new, I never was subjected to a physical exam, only an eye exam.
    That's weird.

    Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
    I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line.  Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with.  At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone).  At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight.  It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat.  Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are.  You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents??  They sound whacked.  Please be careful.

    Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
    it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.
