    By all accounts Amazon is shit employer. My friend Nick was one of the first employees for them. The only thing he liked about it was never having to have another "real" job after he quit.

    I'm sure everyone knows that. I just want the stock options and the name on the resume. You gotta be a maniac to want to actually work there for a the long haul (depending on your job)

    I'm lucky enough I work for myself, just had the poor timing of trying to get back to Shoreline at rush hour..I'm one of the rare natives so remember when traffic wasn't this had.

    As an aside I think Seattle has the worst traffic in the country.

    I grew up in the north seattle-lynnwood area since 1990, before that portland. I remember when there wasn't much traffic as well. As for traffic...spend some more time in LA lol.

    I go to LA several times a year for a week or so for work, and just got back from there.

    People commute like 45 miles and it might take them an hour and a half..people in WA commute like 10 miles and it takes them an hour and a half. What's worse?

    At the gym this morning. IMG_1089.jpgI know this should go in the ASSHOLE parking thread but I thought there was a better chance of the owner seeing it here.

    True, I guess it feels different when I'm there I'm not commuting for work so their traffic doesn't bother me though.

    No, I'm actually speedway blue with front tube bumper and sliders. I waved back at someone a few weeks ago as I came down OHSU. Was that you?

    I think so. I up there everyday and there’s no other silver 2nd gen with full armor and a brute force bed cage (the cage is new). If you see me just flag me down. I’m always stoked to check out other rigs.

    North Bend, 3rd gen, didn't catch the color because I was looking at that big bull elk in the back. Didn't realize archery was open already.

    I hope one day my truck will be cool enough to be noticed and posted on here... :cool:

    ... Maybe it would help if my commute was more than 4 miles?
