We’ll all hear about this guy. When they promote him to liquid tanker without baffles.

One time their pup was sliding off the road around corners and knocking down the road reflectors. Someone had to tell them to slow down. The only reason they started slowing down is because they didn't want to be told to slow down again by the boss or the customer.
They know the road like the back of their hand but it's still a very stupid risk to take.
Don't let anyone push you to go faster, it takes time to get a feel for things, and trying it too early is bad news.Simonpete Thanks this. -

When I was in training the trainer made me drive 65 in a blizzard. We were flying by other cars and I told him we should slow to their speed. He told me “they’re not professional drivers”. This is also the same guy who wouldn’t let me GOAL and I ended up hitting an awning and defiling my clean driving record. I should’ve just left that company but I was new and stupid.
Simonpete Thanks this. -
Feels like you driving with Ricky Bobby. At least he ain’t trying to teach you to make the turn using an apex.
Speed_Drums, Simonpete, BigBob410 and 1 other person Thank this. -
That must be the same trainer that's out there teaching guys not to use their side view mirrors because they aren't liable for anything that happens behind them.
God prefers Diesels, Simonpete and BigBob410 Thank this.
