Good enough for you princess?I am sure with your job, you work all day long and everything flows perfectly. You never have to wait for a piece of equipment, foreman or anything of the sort.Asshat!

Try living right across from a construction site, and coming out every morning to a bunch of out of shape, dirty construction workers making comments and whistling at you. I’d take sitting in a car sipping on coffee over that any day.
