    I have the worst job in the world.

    I am forced 5 sometimes 6 days a week to ride my vfr around the state all freaking day.

    its just mile after mile after breath taking mile.

    every day on my vfr. just cruising down the road. its pathetic really. being required to ride my bike all day. sometimes 300 miles a day.


    :thumbsup:

    Hitting the gas station once or even twice a day can be brutal.

    I'm in the same boat when the weather is nice. As soon as the temp cracks 50 here, I'll head out and visit some customers on the south side of Denver. Expect to put on around 200miles today.

    I love it when I have to do official biz on the bike. Getting reimbursed for mi. on the bike is almost like pulling a fast one on the company!

    I'm a musician on the side (trumpet). One of the bands I play in plays some dates out of town, and I try to ride to them whenever possible - and I write off the mileage.

    I've put a few miles on my bike for work. Had to ride about 40 mile round tripper to deliver 2 mice & 2 keyboards.

    No employee should ever have to put up with that kind of abuse. Contact your lawyer immediately and sue their asses off. And let me know as soon as you lose your job - I have an application in for your position already.

    I made a supply run the other day on my VFR. It took hours.
    A couple of weeks ago I had to ship some IV pumps for service. I had them stacked about 2 foot high on the back of the bike. It was cool.

    Man I wish is could claim mileage! Several times per week I find myself running around in the mountains here in Arizona, sometimes 300-400 miles per day, and NO ONE is paying me for it. Of course, I am retireded, so...:tongue:

    I personally thank you for that comment my friend. I think it and you say it, amazing.
    I think that is enough said, but at least I am not alone. and now you know you are not either.
    Should make a new zombie movie called night of the customers.
