    If I’m working outbound and you didnt put your gear up I’m gonna stack around you jack. I don’t care if it’s in the nose.

    jokes aside, I’ve put a pallet jack 4ft in the air suspended by straps once because we have this guy that thinks he’s too good to put his gear in the shop trailer at the end of the day like everyone else

    Oh man Linehaul got me good today.

    so I go to hook up to this trailer and I’m like “uh, that’s a little high lemme see if I can still hook onto it.”, I skip the fifth wheel thank god I didn’t back completely under the trailer.

    Oh, and then the trailer had a messed up landing gear so couldn’t break the set for the rear trailer i needed. Wouldn’t go up or down.

    I grab another set to grab an empty and the #### dolly release lever is rust welded. Wish we’d get some follies that aren’t as old as I am…

    took a 10-15min job into an hour…

    Haha thought about moving to Wyoming from Florida for the lower taxes, and the wife wants something a little different.

    I forgot snow and mountains were a thing; think I’ll stay in the flat lands for a few more years.

    Was reading about it for its low taxes and cost of living

    Well the guy in the right lane for some unknown reason decided to stop right in the middle of the highway blocking both lanes. I think he panicked and froze up and refused to drive any further. The winds were ferociously howling between 70-80 mph continuously. It just never seemed to let up.

    The second guy was an Amazon driver who was initially behind us. After we sat there for an hour a trooper drive by, and then we never saw him again, so I didn't know if the road was blocked by a rollover or what. 30 mins after the trooper went by, the Amazon went around us on the right, then cut between us and the truck on the right and he tried to pass on the left and put it in a snow bank in the median. My co-driver was able to move to the right shoulder and the wind let up just enough to see there was no obstruction so my co-driver turned on the interaxle diff lock and cautiously moved up the right shoulder, around the truck blockin the highway and we got out of there.
