Dear So and So

[jobob]

Dear Guys at RoadForumsReview, or whatever the hell it's called.

Please shoot me if I ever make the mistake of reading any of you posts. Ever again.



What a bunch of assholes.

Wow. Painting with a broad brush there.

I think my interview went very well; however I'm one of 6 applicants for 2 positions and there are internal candidates. I'll know more next week. Keep those fingers crossed.

Oh, nothing happened to me. Just read quite a few different threads where the guys definitely were @$$ho)es. (I assumed TE would censure my words. Sorry).

But don't listen to me. I'm jaded. I was married 15 years, and he had 2 kids with 2 different women, pretty sure they weren't mine,...ha!

Still. Assholes.

I'm not sure what subforum you were reading. I agree that there are a few jerks. But I've also born witness on RBR--mostly within the Lounge--of some of the best sides of humanity. True kindness, wisdom and ceaseless support from both men and women.

And, on top of all that, recipes for Cucumber Basil Gimlet!

Exactly!!

Trust me; I've ranted a time or two to my husband about stuff on the Lounge. Last week, I even got on my husband's case about a comment that he made on there that was out of line. I don't post much there myself. I mostly just read. I'm consistently moved and impressed with the wisdom and thoughtfulness there in threads about the more serious parts of life. I love TE, too, but for different reasons.

The Lounge will always have a special place in my heart, they were all there for me when my Dad got sick. It's pretty amazing when you get so much support from a group of invisible friends.

Other forums within RBR? Meh....kinda strange....and yes, there are some true AH's there.

+1 to what Snap and Indy said. I stay mostly in the Lounge....the rest of the subforums are just too weird most of the time.

Dear Large Vehicle Drivers:

what the f--- is it with you? First, a logging truck hits and kills a cyclist because "he didn't have room to move over." Now, a bus driver has hit a cyclist because he tried to pass without giving enough clearance. At least both drivers were cited, but really????

Crap. Thank goodness the second cyclist survived, but even so, there's no excuse. And the first is simply tragic.

Mimi and RD- My heart goes out to you both. May there always be at least a glimmer of light, even in the darkness. We will both be thinking of you two.

Dear misguided person(s) who stole Donald's bike last night:

Edited now that I got my ranting & raving out of my system

You must not have any clue what you have done, no-one can be that awful (I hope). Please return Katrina to Donald & Mimi, safe and sound and soon. Thank you.

Dear "surgirl",
if you have custom plates on your car, cutting off people on bikes and almost hitting my DH is not the smartest thing you can do. Had he not been pulling a bob trailer full of groceries on his single speed he probably would have caught you as you peeled out to avoid us chasing you down. Would have called the police but knowing that the day before they issued an inattentive driving to someone who purposely pulled in front of tri-racer and then slammed on the brakes, causing the biker to crash, we decided it would be a waste of time. Instead the next time you have a flat tire, think of us

TE Gals!

I made it to Round 2 of Denver Dream Job™! All your good wishes are definitely helping. This final round consists of me interviewing with the staff. There are 3 of us interviewing for one position. Continued good thoughts and wishes are really appreciated. Thanks!

[indysteel]

We'll continue to keep our toes and fingers crossed fir you, VBG! Congrats on making the cut!
