    Female drivers, in general, are definitely more cautious, more neat, cleaner, better organized than most male drivers... they take very good care of equipment, have better manners than male drivers, and are very safe drivers.... the female drivers that I know, do this job not because they need a job but because they love it and take pride in what they do....

    @MartinFromBC it’s not a big deal the driver that I met just complimented the trucking industry

    Perhaps, but a female couldn’t do my job unless she’s built like an amazon. Some of the junk we haul would break a man’s back.

    500 lb V-8 boat engines in crates too small for a pallet jack are a prime example.
     
    D.Tibbitt, MartinFromBC and Rocks Thank this.

    I agree with you.... females are not as strong as males (in general)... :biggrin_25512:
    I don't remember ever seeing a female driving one of your company's trucks.... :biggrin_25512: And I've never seen a female driving an oversize, or an auto transport truck, or hauling household goods like for the moving carriers.... I guess it's because it's hard, heavy work... :biggrin_2552:
    You are still young and a strong man...:biggrin_25519: So you can do what you do... I guess not all males would be able to do what you do either... :biggrin_25512:
     
    MACK E-6 Thanks this.
