New driver had a bad day

####. You were just practicing in your spare time. Always practice backing up when you get a chance. And the guard was pissed good job. Like that jackoff never made a mistake in his life. How do you think he ended up as a security guard. Wait till you really screw up to worry.

 

Yep. Anyone that’s ever been in a couple tough fights, anyone that’s ever had any sort of training KNOWS that you don’t go around popping off at the mouth at people you don’t know. So, when you see someone that does this, you know for a certainty that he 1. Doesn’t know who his dad is 2. Is not a man. 3. Has never been in a tough spot before.

 

I'd add a number 4, they've never opened their big mouth and realized they made a complete ### out of themselves.

 

You'll have much worse mess ups than that. You're getting experience. The guard is dealing with low self esteem.

 

If it's a busy place, tell him you'll just sit at the gate until the police show up to stop traffic so you can back out safely. I hate places that don't let you turn around. Is it really too much too ask?

 

Eh, it depends on the post's policies. The security guard might get canned if he let him in. Some of them can be very strict on rules like that. I worked one place where they'd watch us on camera constantly and call our supervisor if we did something they didn't like.

 

lol I did much worse than that at my first gig and they dint fire me - Carry on Driver.

 

Just be glad you weren't pulling a set of doubles!

 

When I was doing my six week training, my trainer told me to dropped the trailer right at the guard shack and told me to head to the Petro. I was like, what, you want me to leave it right here? I looked behind me and there was another truck waiting behind me. And he said yes. So I did. He said the guard needed to be taught a lesson. That sounded kinda silly, but I did what he said.

The guard was telling me I could fit between the truck parked in front of me and the yellow guard pole to my right and get through that way. I told him I was new and I didn't want to. He proceeded to tell me to do it anyway. Then my trainer exploded out from his sleeper cave and that began that. He was dropping f-bombs and telling the guard we were not going to move until the truck in front of us moved, period. The guard didn't like that, so hence us dropping the trailer in front of his shack.

As I was driving out of that place I got my lecture about not letting people tell you to do things you aren't comfortable with. It was a bit of an awakening about how things work and no one ever said anything to us about doing that.
