Get the fuck out.
Je viens d'écouter le discours de Marois.
Je m'excuse mais je suis désole que le PQ n'aie pas gagné majoritairement pour qu'un référendum soit tenu et que le Québec se sépare.
Je ne suis plus un vrai Québécois, et je ne comprends pas la pensée politique du peuple Québécois.
La majorité du Québec vote Bloc au Fédéral mais donne une majorité au Libéraux?
Je crois qu'il y a beaucoup de voteurs qui n'ont pas vraiment le courage de leurs opinions.
Encore, je m'excuse mais j'ai hâte au jour ou le Québec va partir et arrêter de foutre le bordel dans mon pays.

"Park by feel" AssHole
I'm at the Pilot in Cannonsburg and got awakened half hour (2:00AM) ago by a "Park by feel" kind of guy.
He didn't stick around to see the damage he did to my passenger side mirror and mount.
By the time I put pants and boots on and got out of the truck, he was gone.
Thank you AssHole!

I just wanted to cross the Border.
Monday morning, I pick up my trailer in Ingersoll, ON and I got to deliver in Columbus,OH Tuesday 6AM.
At 1230PM, I start heading toward Windsor, ON where I will be crossing into Detroit, MI.
When crossing with commercial cargo, the load has to be accepted before showing up.
If it's not, they likely will turn you around. And possibly fine you.
My custom broker's (Livingston) computer system has crashed yesterday and I can't cross the border.
Paperwork was faxed at 1130AM and then again at 230PM yesterday.
At 330PM, I was sitting 4.7 kilometers from the border and unable to cross.
At 730PM, they acknowledge receiving my paperwork but still not able to cross.
At 9PM, still not done and I gave up. Decided to throw all this time in my 10 hours and get up at 1AM.
At 1AM Tuesday, still not done and the guy on their end asks me for my cell number so somebody working on my load can call me.
At 140AM, I get a call and it's not good.
Apparently, there is information missing and they can not clear me.
Thank you for telling me at Fucking 2AM.
That's something I would have liked to know 12 hours ago.
Now I got to wait for people to show up in my office and the shippers office.
Got to wait until at least 9AM.
At 9, people start working on it.
At 1115AM, I get a call from the broker telling me I can cross at noon.
I finally cleared Customs at 1230PM. A full 21 hours later than expected.
New problem now.
I can't deliver on Tuesday anymore.
New appointment is 8AM on Wednesday.
Got to my delivery at 745AM Wednesday and trailer was empty at 1115AM.
