You Know Your A Redneck When...

My previous employer had a few people above me that turned in to the "grammar police" that started to nit-pick every aspect of my work just so they could come up with a reason to get rid of me. They were actually "grading" my work as if I was a kid in school.

I guess that makes me redneck then too, when I used magnetic tow lights to get my camper home before I wired my truck up??

Looking out for the other guy and erring on the safe side... 'aint nothing wrong with that!
I did the same trick on an old IH Travelall til I got to fixing it.

When you use "your" when you should use "you're"?

I think it's time for bed. :W

Who the heck cares, anyone who does creative engineering in anything could be considered a redneck, working "outside the box" also. Then these smart axx smart phones type in what they thins you want, add in misspelled typos to the dictionary and there ya go. Have to spell check the spell check then someone nit picks. Come on, really? Of course, none of the "correctors" have ever misspelled ANYTHING with or without help. Must be the heat or......

Maybe I have a little redneck blood in me, because I'm confused about this correction. You're is a contraction for you are, whereas your is possessive. That being said, it's time for a beer....I've thought too much!:)

I hate bullies....

and to correct a strangers speach is arrogant and another type of bulling someone

We have had some good people that have made real contributions to the forum quit posting after being embarressed...

If a kind person would feel the need to correct someone they'ed send a PM....

... a jerk would want to prove they are superior by calling someone out in public... someone they don't know is even better...

I always take up for the victim...

BTW... I don't think that I've ever heard a redneck correct a strangers verbal mistake... in print either

My issue is my iPad corrects everything for me and winds up saying things I didn't mean to say! It may think it's smarter than me but I know better (I think)!

Alex,
Nothing redneck about that. On the other hand, I found this VW RV thing for sale in Hollbrook, AZ on Route 66 that fits the bill. :)

I swear I've seen this same rv on 66 while traveling to the petrified forest.
