    Common courtesy rant.
    If you are a delivery or p&d guy please note that daylight savings has taken effect and it gets dark really early. That being said.. please turn off your headlights upon returning to the yard. There is literally nothing worse than trying to back a trailer in with two trucks blinding you with their headlights.
    This yard jockey job is making me see things in a while different way lol.

    I wish I could but as soon as I turn them off the daytime headlights come right back on. They’re not as bright but it wouldn’t help much.

    I had one of those go out the other day. When the other one goes they’re staying out. It’s ridiculous how long they don’t last.

    I was driving down Ohio turnpike today and I was surprised how many triples i saw...I think I saw FedEx, UPS, ABF and few others were hauling triples. Must take forever to set it up lol

    It’s not that bad. You make a set of doubles, then drop it and go grab another dolly and front pup like you’re building another set.
