Air Horn at 3am in the truck stop

How about 3 am and the spot next to you opened up during the night. The new truck backing in has backup beepers and takes 15 minutes to get into spot.

 

Back up beeping doesnt bother me to much
But those dm jakes annoy the f out of me theirs no reason for it.
If their brakes dont work fix em i think the problem lies in how some our
taught. I talked to one guy who told me he was taught to drive with the jakes on all the time i thought wtf.
Please dont forget plenty of truckers myself included comeout at night and prefer to sleep during the day.

 

Iv been doing it since i was a kid stay up all night go to school get home sleep wake up stay up all night.
Then my other non driving job was always the graveyard shift. Im a night person always have been.
Not that i mind driving during the day I just would always prefer to drive at night.
Iv been sleeping at night lately somewhat so waking up at between2am and 6 am and starting my day.its ok but i love the clean cool crisp air of night. Im a night person sometimes im both in the same day.But if your tired enough it really doesnt matter close the curtain and enjoy.

 

Wtf idot internet dept of transportation.
i get plenty of sleep. yesterday i stopped from2pm to 6 am this morning
7 stops later i have stopped again and i will wake up when i feel like it tommarow.
If im tired enough i will just tell disp to wait until morn to give the next load.
I did that last mon and took a 34.
I get the sht done dont stop inbetween that often saves loads of time
Mostly getting enough sleep is about planning
I found that having a tv in the truck kept me awake when i should of been sleeping so i havnt had a tv in a truck for years.

But to answer the question i think you wanna know is,
I feel very refreshed with 8-12 hours of sleep. depending on how tired i am and whether or not i wake up in the middle of my rest for one reason or another.
