Muck Boots 'n' Slickers - Life of a Livestock Hauler

Son of …….

 

Looks like this customer chose the "fingers crossed" option on this shipment. You start with unsecured freight, in this case a C7 cat engine, and put it loosely on a metal stand with a few layers of shrink wrap. This is how it was sitting on my trailer. Harness pinned underneath the pallet

You do a mediocre job of draining the fluids and leave random bolts sitting on the valve covers. Its juat a small oil leak under the pan.



Then you opt for the "surprise me" when you are asked if you want the converter protected.

Ive got it secured and dunnage between it and the wall, I hope the customer doesn't have high expectations .

 

Dont worry. they will blame it all on you! Since ur the truck driver and definatly dont just move #### from point a to point b

 

There are days I hate my job! A 300+/- lb hog tried to jump over my sort board this morning, and went full speed snout first into my nuts. Hurt like unbelievable, almost thought I could throw up. And they have a camera watching us unload, so I couldn’t even kick it’s ###

 

I believe I’d have kicked it in its nuts (if I could move quickly enough considering the scenario) just for the cameras sake.

 

Learnin’ him right. I reckon it won’t be real long and he’ll be sleeping, every part of him that can wiggle is wiggling.

 

That is priceless.
Our youngest is in kindergarten, so I’m solo again.
I bet our second to the youngest had a quarter million miles under his belt before he started school.

 

Just for all you poor schmucks that are still shoveling snow.

 

I can smell those Bradford Pear blooms through the picture.

 

Our youngest calls em “butt trees!”
