Calling out the COLOSTOMY BAGS

Haha! Go figure, I've done my dvir and just told my dbl lately. Seems to work just fine and I haven't found as many issues lately.

 

There is subsection 'P', paragraph 'iv' that states, in part "...usage of a urinal immediately adjacent to another urinal currently in use is only permissible if no other unoccupied urinals which maintain the requisite one urinal spacing area available. If such usage is undertaken, the 'no talking to another dude while peeing' (subsection 'P', paragraphs 'iii') rule shall remain in effect.

 

.
freaking hilarious lmfao
But also the paragraph that deals with... MAN at urinal grunting an breathing so hard you can hear'em as soon as you open thr door.

 

This cbag callout goes out to whomever is responsible for this at schneider national. I booked a good paying load that ran me over the weekend and was supposed to pick up tomorrow morning. It was just pulled from me 21 hrs prior to pick up with the explanation that it is "going to teams".

Called in to operations and was told the load was created in error and that only teams are allowed to run this lane. Sounds like a load of bull to me to be quite honest. They probably would have normally gave me the generic "load was cancelled explanation" but made a mistake and gave me TMI. Makes me wonder about these other "cancellations". Now I get to look through whatever scraps are left for this weekend at the last second.

 

Had a dude at the rest area the other day kept repeating "ooo sweet jesus" i thought the guy was going to have a confesion spert with the urinal.

 

And for Pete-sake... Replace your gladhand seals BEFORE they have to be pulled out with a pair of pliers because there's barely any seal left.

I just went to the shop to get 4 more seals, and in the span of a week I've had to use them all. ...and all the ones I've pulled have had no lip left on them.

 

That is really strange.

 

some drivers don't even carry class and see you with them let alone change them and now when you go to SNI to get more they give you for as if those will last a long time

 

You are aware that the book says "as long as the seal doesn't leak, that it's good". And some seals don't even have a wide lip on them. Just sayin

 

LOL it's a freakin' gladhand seal it takes what 7 seconds to replace?? Jesus out of all the things that could be wrong with a trailer, God forbid it's a gladhand seal.

Though I did have a fun one up in OH once... it was like 7 degrees but the sun was out and the trailer was tilted forwards, so the snow on the roof melted and dripped down the front and somehow managed to drip drip drip it's way on to the gladhand, refreeze into a perfect "ramp" structure, then as more water dripped down it ran down the front of the trailer, ran down the ramp, then ran into the hole in the middle of the seal. Took a good few minutes of prying at the dang thing with a screwdriver like a pick to get all of the ice out.
