What is it with reefers parking next to us flatbedders?

I'm considering a 275. Casper is 242. I think I could still get into most of these places with a 275.

 

I hate it when people park next to my AMG Mercedes when there's a lot of other places to park. Sure, it's usually some jaggaloon with a handicap plackard pissed off that I'm occupying the space closest to the door, but that's not the point.

I'm kidding.

I don't own an AMG Merc. The rest can be left open for interpretation.

 

I heard the last reefer guy that done that to the exhaust on their reefer unit also starred in this movie

 

Fearless

 

I like reefer running on continuous parking next to me. It drowns out the noise.

Woke up a few times to what I though was some fighting going on. It was either some guy on his phone talking to his wife, or a couple of guys having a conversation yelling over the idling truck they were standing next to...

 

I just parked less than 10min ago and there were empty f'in spots around, yet...

 

Well, not for long. that place is going to fill up.

If you ask me that guy is a "team player" Park to the right of someone and "fill in the line". If the next guy parked next to him, and so on, there wouldn't be so many sparse open spots between trucks.
Less people would have to wait sitting in the drivers seat waiting for that spot on their blind side to fill in so they can relax and go shower/eat.

 

I'm a car hauler and so thankful I drive a daycab and sleep in nice hotels every night. I slept in truckstops for years. I always thought they should have a designated place in the back for reefers away from everyone else. That way they can all be one happy noisy reefer family.

 

Well apparently my idling Cat was too loud for him right next to my exhaust, so he moved over a space 15min after I posted that pic, then 2 eastern european dudes actually attemtped to PULL into the spot between us, almost taking his bumper and mirror off rotfl. He was pissed and ended up pulling out and going somewhere else.

 

Too funny!
