I never laughed so hard!

That is funny... I give you props for letting the world know about a "bear" it seems more and more these days. It is an "all about me" mentality out there in everything.

Thanks for the funny story!

 

Lets not state the obviousthanks for the laugh

 

I was fueling at the TA in Bloomington Il last week when the cashier told a story. She was telling a co worker, but I was inline and she was explaining how as soon as she had waited on me she needed a break.

A couple customers in front of me. A lady driver walks up to the fuel desk and asks..."Do you sell diesel fuel for big trucks?"

 

Did you look at her and say nope they just put up a sign that they are a truck stop to see how many truckers they could fool, here's your sign!

 

That is kind of like.... hey; bobtail you don't have any trailer lights...

 

Or you only have one mudflap on the right side of your trailer, ive seen guys pull over get out and look lol.

 

a friend and i were bobtailing, he was driving, and he was making a right turn into one of our yards, and he took the turn just has we would bobtailing, i started freaking out and told him the trl was going in the deep ditch!, he slammed on the breaks and tried to steer left to make sure it didnt go in the ditch.... i knew the trl wasnt there, he forgot!.... priceless!

 

My favorite was back in the day when Werner used to pull for Xerox, the copier company and had all the trailers with "Xerox" on the back and sides. Would usually go something like this....
"How 'bout that westbound Xerox truck? You got a copy?"

"Yeah, c'mon"

Then you wait a few more minutes and do it again. Priceless.

 

One fine day, I was coming up on an obvious company driver rookie with a big radio who'd been asking for a bear report every two minutes. After about the 80th request for a bear report, I finally keyed up and said...

"Round about the 14, you got a bear in the air checkin' logbooks."

He actually pulled to the shoulder and grabbed his log...!!!
