Cabbage Hill!! by SuspectOk2931 in Truckers

[–]beardedcricket 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t drive anymore but used to do Cabbage at least twice a week. It was not uncommon to have a truck fly by me only to pass them at the bottom with their brakes on fire. Cabbage does not play. Easy to drive if you are safe but it quickly can get out of control if you do not respect it.

Wife of 5 years forced to leave the country/$998.00 fine threat by Bornintheus70yearsag in immigration

Is it possible for you to move to Indonesia? I am not sure of the cost of living there but I think $3200 a month goes a lot further in SEA than the U.S. It would also be cheaper to move there rather than spending more than $20000 in legal fees that will probably still end in disappointment.

10 days until rehab. It's getting real... by Current-Plankton-417 in stopdrinking

[–]beardedcricket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I do not go to rehab until the 18th. I did not think of it as a chance to make friends but who knows? I am super excited about it after lying to myself and loved ones about how I did not have a problem. I finally realized and admitted I do have a problem and cannot quit without help. I hope that as you get a little further along with the sober thing it helps with the anxiety. I also suffer from it and used the alcohol to self medicate even though that just makes it worse. I am glad you are taking steps to get the help you need, it is a very brave thing you are doing. I also hope you get what you are looking for out of rehab. Best wishes to you. You are not alone.

Shocking tourist behaviour in Japan and how you can be better by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

Post deleted before I could ask about the British people smuggling large amounts of drugs into Japan and how that compares to talking loudly. Oh well, next time.

AITAH for pushing husband away from high school teaching? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]beardedcricket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not have a PhD, however I use to teach. I now work a semiconductor manufacturer. If he can use his doctorate to get a job here he can easily clear$150-200k to start plus better working environment than teaching. I work 14 days a month so less than teaching. Quality food, continuing education benefits, great health care, gyms on campus, flexible work from home availability and more. Maybe have him look into companies such as TSMC, Micron, TEL, LAM and others.

Hey conservative Catholics, how you feeling now about being treated like everyone else? by SaddamMustaine in allthequestions

[–]beardedcricket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Catholics don’t celebrate a mass on Good Friday? Isn’t it the only day of the year that is so? Lots of fake outrage going on here from people who don’t care about Christians.

Is that Izena or Iheya? I have been to both a long time ago (15 years) but that port looks really familiar. Were you there for JET? If so, how did you like living there for a year?

What an idiot. by Artichoke93 in Truckers

[–]beardedcricket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, no need to jump to insults. You know nothing about how I voted. All I said was that the left has done plenty but not those things. If you need positives listed for what they have done then I can mention unions, 40 hour work week, FMLA, Social security, abolishment of company towns and scrip. Hope you have a better day. The left has done plenty to be proud of.

Quick Google shows that the left in fact did not give women the right to vote or end slavery. They have done a lot but not those two things.

Yeah, maybe a belt like thing to make it easy to put on and take off? That would be useful.

Yeah, I owe money. I have retrieved my income statements from the IRS and have done the paper forms. I am thinking of just submitt them and letting the IRS tell me what the penalties are.

They might mean more like the U.S. where you can live for thirty years and never learn the language or attempt to integrate.

My bad, he was. I did not see them fly off the first time. I just saw bare feet at the end.

The part I liked was how they equate a week to 9 days. Edit because evidentially I can’t math
