So... you have a good job, love the people you work with, do everything *but* programming, have a job that's a jack-of-all-trades type... methinks we need to trade jobs. Immediately. lol RAW> I don't think I'm the truck driver type either. :] But, I've done a lot of RAW> cross-country driving, and I loved nothing more than the late night RAW> interstate drives when there was nothing but trucks on the road. I haven't done a *lot* of cross-country driving... but when I'm driving anywhere greater than a few hours away, I'd much rather drive late at night on the interstate, when there's 'nothing but trucks' on the road. I can also stay awake better at night.. if I have to drive very far during the day, I start drifting off to sleep... but I never have that problem at night.

Be careful what you ask. I think I've written about 85,000 pages on this topic to my coworkers since giving my notice. :] Basically, think about what a lot of guys will say to a woman who will not put out. "If I can't get it from you, I can always get it somewhere else." That's kinda how I feel at my current job. I'm a programmer, yet I can't remember the last time I wrote a single line of code. To be cocky, I know a lot of stuff about non-programming things, and because of that, I get dragged into EVERYTHING. Knowledge is punishment. But, well, I ~need~ to code. And if I can't do it here, I'm going to go do it somewhere else. That's the real motivater in all of this. I've been looking to get the F out of here for two years now, and I'm just now finally getting off my ass and doing it. There are some really good things about this place. Like, I can pretty much do whatever I want when I want, within reason of course. The job security here is ridiculous. I love the people I work with. But, it's time to move on. >>http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc.asp?model=model379 > > LOL! You as a truck-driver?
