Another on bites the dust..

I think I may see some of the OP's problem.

 

I would complain when it happens at my job, but I know the guy that does it and it would be wasting my time. Like Grumppy said, put a block back there and let it lift it. Then, drop your loaded trailer to where he can’t back under it and accidentally chalk all four wheels.

 

Yard jockey knocked a drivers teeth out? Could be a rumor or scare tactic. Keep a stainless steel ball point pen handy and if you feel threatened, start slashing away. The pen, by definition, isn't a weapon; you just happened to have it in your hand when you were attacked.

 

Sometimes trucking requires a tad of work.
Not trying to be mean but that wasn't that bad.
Drop the bags.. put the rails under it... put the crank in low gear and turn it 25 times (big deal)... air the bags up... Lower the legs again... Drop the bags if necessary, and get under the trailer.

This job requires getting sweaty at times.
Sometimes you get crappy trailers.

You have to solve those problems yourself on the fly without someone bailing you out.

Gotta get tough.

NUT UP.

 

So what? Can't you see the gap between the frame rails and the trailer? You've just been given the informed words of an experienced hand, for free, that would have saved you the indignity of having to speak to a yard dog. The correct thing to do would have been to say " thank you grumpy, it's great advice I'll certainly remember in the few short months I have left doing this job"

 

I carry a TacPen with me at all times.
