Patience, Examples Of: Not Much Of A Truck Driver Either
I heard a story the other night about a truck driver who
dropped in at an all-night restaurant in Broken Bow, Nebraska.
The waitress had just served him when three swaggering,
leather-jacketed motorcyclists -- of the Hell's Angels type
--entered and rushed up to him, apparently spoiling for a fight.
One grabbed the hamburger off his plate; another took a handful
of his French fries; and the third picked up his coffee and
began to drink it. The trucker did not respond as one might
expect. Instead, he calmly rose, picked up his check, walked to
the front of the room, put the check and his money on the cash
register, and went out the door. The waitress followed him to
put the money in the till and stood watching out the door as the
big truck drove away into the night. When she returned, one
of the cyclists said to her, "Well, he's not much of a man, is
he?" She replied, "I can't answer as to that, but he's not
much of a truck driver. He just ran over three motorcycles out
in the parking lot."
