Work vs. Prison
Just in case you ever got the two mixed up. This should make things a bit clearer.
IN PRISON: you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell.
AT WORK: you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 cubicle.
IN PRISON: you get three meals a day.
AT WORK: you only get a break for one meal and you pay for it.
IN PRISON: you get time off for good behavior.
AT WORK: you get more work for good behavior.
IN PRISON: the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
AT WORK: you must carry around a security card and open all
the doors for yourself.
IN PRISON: you can watch TV and play games.
AT WORK: you get fired for watching TV and playing games.
IN PRISON: you get your own toilet.
AT WORK: you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat.
IN PRISON: they allow your family and friends to visit.
AT WORK: you can't even speak to your family.
IN PRISON: the taxpayers pay all expenses with no work required.
AT WORK: you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and
then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.
IN PRISON: you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to
get out.
AT WORK: you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go
inside bars.
IN PRISON: you must deal with sadistic wardens.

The following are ways to determine whether a truck is company owned:
1. Company trucks travel faster in all gears.
2. They accelerate much faster than personal trucks, leaving tire marks on pavement.
3. They enjoy a much shorter braking distance, leaving more tire marks.
4. They can take bumps at twice the speed of private trucks.
5. Company trucks normally require oil changes at 100,000 mile intervals.
6. Their floors are shaped like ash trays, and accommodate milk cartons, coke bottles, leftover food, and paper wrappers.
7. They can be driven 100 miles or more with the oil pressure light flashing.
8. They are adapted to allow the transmission to be shifted into reverse while going forward at 20 mph.
