I own my own truck cuz I could never be dictated to on how to run. When it’s time to go home I go home. Don’t care what “the man” says. I own the truck. Not him. That’s the privilege of being an o/o. But more often than not, I’m the one out rescuing trailers and loads while company guys sit at home.

Just today. A newbie driver that was just hired 2 weeks ago and learning was told by the Boss’s son to grease his dump truck that he drives for him. Then he drives off to work at a construction site.
I walked over to see how the new driver is doing with the greasing.
I noticed the yoke on the power divider is is a touch loose.
“Time to fix the truck” I told the newbie. Loose yoke. No good. I’ll help.
The driver comes back after being at a construction site for the day. Sees his drive shaft disconnected.
I said it needed to be fixed. New U-joint too.
I told my boss’s son to stop being so hard on the shifter. -
