The bunch of armchair psychiatrists from democrat underground need to take a break from psychoanalyzing Donald Trump and turn their attention to fellow primitive Tubby Tobin. The guy is ecstatic now, but it seems like just last week he was in a state of deep despair and ready to go postal. I won't be like the DUmmies and make a specific diagnosis, but those kinds of mood swings could be a sign of some serious mental illness/personality disorder.

I feel very grateful today.
All went well last night. A seventy foot rig, five hundred horses, thirteen gears, and a cloud of smoke and dust. Yeeeeeeehaaawwww! You can't help but feel like a badass. When I hopped out at my destination I had enough swagger to make John Wayne look effeminate. Five hundred and twenty miles and eleven hours and I have my first day in the books.
As I was rolling on the interstate last night, I couldn't help but wonder what possessed me to go back to school to learn to be a businessman. I had everything I needed before I went back to school. There is something to be said for wanting something better and wanting to improve yourself. But before you go making big changes make sure that you are fully appreciating what you already have. The journey to self improvement could end up being illusive.
What I am grateful for today is my new employer. They gave me a shot when a lot of other companies weren't willing to. I will not forget that and I feel a great deal of loyalty toward them.

What happens in a week or two when he loses this new job? What then?

2. Good to hear, Tobin.
Been hoping to see a 'review' of your first day.
520 miles???!!! YEEEEEHAAAWWW indeed!
Don't encourage him. It will make the inevitable crash that much more devastating.

3. It takes one helluva good truck driver to manage thirteen gears. I am impressed, Tobin S.
Go get 'em!
Managing thirteen gears is a big deal? That's all there is to driving a big rig?

6. Twelve gears are easy, with a good transmission/clutch ...
... but that thirteenth one, marked "R", is not so easy.
Tobin, congratulations on the job. I hope you get home a lot.
Get home and get that much needed sleep. I kid.
And from the DUmp's own Dillinger:

5. Man, you're almost making me miss the road.
Peterbilt 279, 18 speed just 475 horse, no governor, flatbed. I was told it'd do 112MPH if I had the guts. I didn't. Got it up to 85 once for a short stretch down in west Texas late one night.
Glad you seem to have found your niche.
If managing thirteen gears is a big deal, just imagine what a superhuman feat 18 would be?

7. Awesome, congrats.
You deserve some good fortune.
Keep the shiny side up and sew your eyelids open you worthless tub of guts.

Well congrats Tubbs. Now don't **** it up!
Hey... he is at least employed. That beats about 90 percent of the dump.

The primitives should have called out Tubby on his degrading tinkerbelle reference.

^^ You are correct, USA. Still, I laughed when I first read it, as I pictured said swagger.

Bah, call me when you can back up 2 gravity wagons in series. THAT actually takes some level if ingenuity and patience to figure out

My dear Tobin. Your facade will soon fall so stay thirsty my friend.

What happens, in a week, when you tell them you (and your massive sixth grade educated brain) tell them you can run their business better that they are?

More of a "wobble" than a "swagger", but Tobin don't fall down.
