my first incident

And like we all haven't scratched trailers, or scraped the sides, or forgot to put the landing gear down and dropped a trailer too low! Pleeeeeeeease

we all mess up, just relax and move on bro

 

Yes,like Chris Farley used to say " Well,that and a nickel will get you a hot cup of Jack Squat"!

 

I'm glad you got it sorted out OP. I have to say that I'm not looking forward to riding along with someone for 4-5 weeks for initial training once I get to a company. I've read lots of horror stories similar to yours. That guy you dealt with sounds like a real piece of work.

 

Yeah, my first co driver was horrid as well.. she liked to crash Toll booths, gate bars at shippers, she eventually got fired due to all these mishaps and they were all small, but they add up.

I should have gotten off the truck when i first met her... i was new and not to sure of my rights.. I found out later she had rolled a truck 7 years prior.... anyways that was years ago. i now do solo only.

 

Need to go solo for a small company dont drive team.mi hate having passengers, I hate worrying about if my passenger has to pee or eat or stretch etc.

 

Not sure why you're worried if they have to pee or stretch. "Hey man I gotta pee can you stop at the next rest area real quick?" "Yeah man no problem there's one coming up in 15 miles." Yeah that's so stressful

 

It is if you got someone with a weak bladder who cant hold it for a couple hundred miles.

 

Are we talking about a co driver or a Chihuahua with anxiety issues?? Lolol
