I moved onto gravel hauling, which is a natural fit for me. That way my Teamster 'Brothers and Sisters' don't have to worry about my smoking ever...
I split up their trains. Then I reworked their damaged goods on the docks. Then I delivered their damaged goods into the most hellish holes...
Hoffa would be rolling in his God ###### grave...
Teamsters have literally been the biggest babies that I've ever dealt with...
They aren't 'your' trucks you're driving. Those are company trucks that I'm paid to drive also. And I get it. You don't want a smoker in the...
I've done a bit I think. In chronological order, but with dates omitted for privacy reasons. 5 ton local work for a nursery. Truck and trailer,...
In the desert, about 20 years ago... [IMG]
"He changed my CB channel, and I think I smelled smoking!" He touched my day cab box! Yellow is a joke, and so are most of their drivers.

You've made a good call. Tarping sucks. Climbing around on top of a load 14' tall in the heat of summer or the frigid cold of winter struggling...
I don't believe this to be true, at least in BC, with my ICBC coverage. I can drive my dump truck past a road closure (often a part of the job),...
I think I've been hauling gravel around in circles for too long! Only once you've achieved the ability to piss anywhere, at any time, on any day,...
You report drivers for pissing? I think that's a bit harsh! Just be happy he's not throwing piss jugs onto your lawn! :D
I think that might depend more on what suspension the truck was spec'd with, as opposed to the badge on the hood. I've driven a Vulva that was...
KW W900, simply because it still has that classic look and it's a truck/cab that I'm used to. It also has a hanging clutch pedal that is usable...
