Where is everyone #5

My wife is obsessed with rotators... can I give her your number? LoL. She wants us to buy one. Family business and all. Yeah she has CDL; kids could get theirs intrastate. All that OTHER WORK?!!? Um.. nope. I'd have fun driving forward OR reverse, I miss the 18's..... but would sit out the chaining, strapping, chambering brakes, dropping drive shafts, and all..... i'm old.

 

I always enjoy helping out when I can. No point in building skills and having experience if you can't pass it on.

It's fun work if you like being by yourself to do your thing rather than having a bunch of clipboard-toting "supervisors" watch your every move. Something I always hated about flatdeck, especially in the steel industry. More people around telling me how to do my job makes me nervous that I might just screw up and get hurt. When I'm by myself with nobody watching, I have the confidence to stay safe.

 

Trombone trailers have an expansion joint in them for extra-long loads.



I've never pulled one and unless in some time I get bored doing tanks, liquids or solids, I don't see myself ever pulling any kind of oversize, but I hear they are a much more reliable way to move long stuff.

See them a lot in Canada moving oilfield stuff and beams (steel and concrete) but I've not come across them much in the US.

 

Exactly what I miss not pulling asphalt. I was more often by myself offloading than not. Empty ghost tanks...ahhhh the life.

 

Nice, thanks~!! Don't know that I've seen one in the states, but what would I know. Appreciate the share.....and it's a tridem trailer. Just what that guy needed, imho.

 

Its like you can't hit the dock to save your life yet one shot it when nobody is around. That's me

 

That's me when the wife rides/drives with me.... trying how to tell me to do my job, LoL~!

 

I didn't know it until now.

 

Ya know, this just got me thinking...wife told me that they are making Lucky Charms beer somewhere. No, I don't WANT any... but is this Urban Legend or for real? Guess I could google it but probably just gag, LoL.

 

Very astute observation.
That's a much nicer way of calling them spoiled brats.
You're a lot better at diplomacy than I am.
