Bad day so far

In 1976 a drive I know went to sleep while he was unloading anhydrous ammonia in the small town I lived in. I forget the exact reason, but I think he over filled a tank and the pop off was letting it out, anyway, they had to evacuate half the town. lol. yep he was done with that outfit. lol

Oh, that's nasty shxx. I applied for a job, was in the mid-80s, tanker outfit, Anhydrous, gasoline, propane, wanted to start me at $7.50/hr, but a chance to make union wage in 6 months. Ok, I did a ride along for one day, he let me drive, it was the one and only load of gasoline I ever hauled, I said, "you're nuts", and never in my entire career did anything like that again. Never even got my HazMat, because I wanted no part of that.

 

when i drove for werner for a very short period of time, my son was in kindergarten at the time. i went to my son's open house with his teacher. she said his behavior had changed when i was out of that house....... that was enough for me. my kids will know their father. now i have two..... mathew 8 and noah 1-1/2. mathew has ridden in the truck with me a few times and loves it, i will eventually take him again but im nervous about it after i had that accident that was NOT my fault...... still it makes me grateful he was not with me that day. it wouldnt have been a good thing

 

Not sure how long you've done this, but pallets going over is just a regular part of the job. Unless you are hauling uniform size freight, it's bound to happen. I hauled a load of flashlight batteries once, you know, a million small boxes on a pallet, came off the rail, those boxes fanned out like a deck of cards. I was there a while.
