yard jockey

Ours never leaves the yard, I don't even know if it would go fast enough to get out on the road lol. We have a truck that comes every night to fuel all the trucks so it doesn't have any reason to ever leave the yard, it's not tagged or anything.

 

I wouldn't want to go fast im paid by the hour , and It may come apart.
But hey I like it and that's all that matters.

Its so ugly I act like a Large Car driver and let the air out if my seat so I can't see the other drivers laughing at me.

 

I fill in every once in a while if the yard guy has a day off. It's not a bad gig at all. I don't know why so many guys don't like it.

 

Could you imagine getting into a wreck in a yard truck? Like imagine some idiot in a car t bones you at a red light. I know they aren't designed for road use but still.

 

I never even thought about that since we don't take it on the road but yes...holy crap. It's basically a tin rattle box with a 6bt in it....I could see a Toyota Corolla cutting it in half lol.

 

Id like to find a good gig in Florida , but that 50below crap last winter about put me in the Hospital.

 

Publix is looking for one currently. It's a combo job of yard man and fuel guy. I think the pay is in the mid 20's..great place to work.

 

Lakeland?

 

Yes sir

 

Im more of a panhandle type I like the Hillbilly Riviera , spent a lot of time at NAS Pensacola , Tyndell AFB and Milton.

Joe Pattys seafood in Pensacola is heaven on earth., we still have the family ship us shrimp in Wisconsin , I believe Joe just recently past away.

I see your pic , me and my little brother owned a bike shop , Santa Cruz , Intense, S&M , the internet killed the biz.

Id rather deliver groceries to Billionaire s like my buddy does down in FLL.
