Looks like it could use 4 or 5 more chains and binders. At least 6 or 7 more straps. Probably a few more pieces of dunnage and blocking. or just put it under a conestoga and call it good.
My back is hurting just looking at this picture. I did flatbed when I was a young pup. I have done a little flatbed last couple years about 2 to 3 loads of hay. Thank be for all your hard work. I'll stay with CO2.
Presumably you know this already and are just chain yanking? But more dunnage/blocking is most often the wrong answer on rigid materials, they more peices they are setting on, the more likely the dunnage itself will shift around
There's an immigrant in another thread who is leased under a company notorious for scamming and double brokering, who said that they don't care about following the rules, that the rules were meant to apply to everybody else. This is becoming more and more common, partly because of social media influencers and the videos they make promoting this type of behavior. Before long, we will be overrun with immigrants taking our jobs and not even willing to do it correctly. But it doesn't stop with our jobs, they are also coming after our women! So the next time you ask yourself if you should throw another strap, do it for your country! If you don't care about the country, then do it for all of the children out there driving semi trucks.
I shouldn't grace your comment with any reply, and I may be wrong - to read into your post - the following assumptions. I am the immigrant in my 10 year old thread on the journey to ownership. Leased under a company - Landstar - that you may have had issues with, and I am not a schill for. I very much care about following rules, more so than many peers I observe on the roads. I have a very under-rated, un-visited You Tube channel that was meant to help, but is a speck in the ocean of promoted content. I have been the one guy that worked for 10 years as a company driver, 10 years as an owner - been a US citizen (naturalized) for 13 years, yet you still feel this doesn't meet your standard for an immigrant truck driver. I could be completely wrong. I may be absolutely reading into your comments erroneously. If so, I apologize. But if I'm right in my assumptions - and the small inside joke between @Espressolane and myself regarding another post on my thread - prompted you to post this message - Then you can royally shove it where the sun doesn't shine, and enjoy it. Good day sir.
I don't really feel that way, but I figured if we were pulling legs I was going to yank really hard. Everything I wrote was taken to the extreme to be satirical. Are you really over here taking our jobs and stealing our women? I think you got a little defensive about my question about securement so I let it go. When it got brought up here again as a joke I figured it was fair game. I was 100% serious about the part where I said children are out there driving trucks, though.
I don't know man. If I was an immigrant, I wouldn't want to be stealing our women. All the tats, piercings, man-hating as empowering, hell, they can take ours, give us yours!
