Johnnie says "I started working for the Kentucky State Police about 6 years ago as a dispatcher, after getting laid off permanently from my job at Carhartt when they started moving their operation to Mexico. Last year I transferred over into the Driver Testing section & absolutely love it! This is the best job I've ever had & hope to retire right were I'm at. I do not have any kids (thank goodness..ha-ha). I was married for 12 years but divorced early last year (2006) after my wife took off with a 19 year old long haired skateboarder. I'm over it now but just so you know, in the words of a great wise man Lorren Wallace "I ain't sayin I wouldn't eat lunch with the guy..but if he messes with me I'll put him in the wall!"
