Your ongoing inferiority complex wears thin. So does your name-calling. My "job" is none of your business. You didn't understand the quote, and you're still mad about three weeks ago when I pointed out how your "observations" on Class I railroads are always so different from real Class I railroaders. I knew then you were going to get back, somehow, because that's the kind of venal person you are. Schoolyard bully, all "growed" up, sort of. I saw the other thread, which I never posted on, which you proceeded to slander me up one side and down the other. I didn't post. You couldn't stand that. The Troll in you didn't get satisfied. So, now you're over here, way off topic, pursuing your vendetta.You can't keep up with the facts, so you attack the people. <br /> <br />I don't give a d*** about your education or your background. It's the quality of your arguments, and your mendacious slander that offends me. But, my background really, really seems to bother you. You're obsessed by it. It recurs over and over with you. Those people who know me, know full well what my background is. They count. The sad fact of the matter is, you don't. <br /> <br />Grow up and get over it. <br /> <br />The fact is, from growing up on a railroad, and working for a railroad, I've been privileged to know some first class people, from track crew to railroad presidents. And I can truthfully say, every single one of them outclasses you. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Kinda explains why he's divorced.
