Stupid Ideas lead to Stupid Mistakes

"If you are having trouble backing into a tight space and you feel you need more room, go ahead and keep backing up until you hit the wall, then pull up. You won't hurt that wall a bit, and you'll have a little more room to manuever that way."

 

"Don"t worry,you"ll figure it out"-Referring to my first FLATBED run-And I didn"t know ANYTHING... And no,I did not figure it out.,but plenty of hands showed me.....

 

Do you all rotate your headlights on a regular basis ?

 

What? Don't pick-up trucks count?

 

nope, just the taillights........

 

I've got my class A license but no one ever told me how to find the 5th wheel do I start counting from the front left wheel or is it counting from the back wheels?

 

What i like is when you call the customer and ask for directions and they say "hold on let get someone who knows how to get here". How does these people get to work

 

by cruise control

 

Here is one I actually made up-"Bring your rig to a crawl while going under overpasses so that your SKY-HOOK don't catch it . . ."

 

That one actually works- I did get the demo, but it was a mechanic with a fuel filter.

Later on, I looked into it, and diesel needs more specific conditions for combustion, and is much more difficult to ignite with a flame or spark than gasoline due to less volatility.

Nevertheless, the demo is very unnerving and I do not recommend it at all. Definitely one of those "What the #&$^# are you doing!!?" moments.
