Nah, you can get real country. All about how you search and what station you pick.

Coonman didn't even tell you the whole story. You got Milwaukee and Madtown traffic comming down 151. You got Milwaukee, Beloit and Janesville traffic coming down 11. You got Cedar Rapids traffic coming up 151 and Waterloo traffic coming in from the west on 20. Then there is the Casino traffic. Don't get me started about those windmills coming in on 11.

Sounds like a pain. Maybe a 34 minute commute.

laugh

I know people who would pay top dollar for a 34 minute one way commute.

MapQuest says 25 minutes from your town to klauer. It is 19 miles. You already worked there so they probably won't hire you again so that doesn't matter. The job is advertised for 18 to 20 an hour on access Dubuque jobs. Now I saw on the map directions that you're right next to peosta. There are numerous jobs there and on that end of Dubuque. Of course they'll expect you to not whine so there's that. Probably don't want you to be racist either. From a long ago post is the afternoon job at the garbage company? You know you can ask the cleaning company you work for another assignment if this one's bothering you so much

Coonman, you got yourself a vacuum cleaner.. if he comes to close just give him a good ol whack across the head.. He'll leave you alone. Your a trapper right? An't fraid o nottin!!

If he doesn't have any plates on the truck you can make some for him with cardboard, colored markers, and glitter. Just tell him you didn't wana see him get pulled over for not having plates. You can even write "coonman" on the plates. Not a single sheriff will pull him over.
