    There is the whole problem with our profession, our government, and our world right now. If it isn't impeding "me". We no longer care what is done that impedes others as long as "I" am not inconvenienced.

    The whole point IS IT DIDNT IMPEDE YOU EITHER. Dont be one of the people that give truckers a bad name. Do your job and do it professional and do it well. And for all that is holy stop complaining.

    They make commercials about truck drivers exactly like the geiko cavemen ones. Don't give them ammo to throw back on us.

    I'm not the one giving drivers a bad name, I look to make things convenient on others and show others their mistakes in the hopes when I make a mistake I will have the same help being extended to me. The drivers who make the entire industry look bad are those who don't care.

    Obviously there is no reasoning with you. Good luck and be safe!

    From your perspective there isn't. If they want ammo to throw at drivers this is a prime example "look he isn't even intelligent enough to know what the lines are for"

    And you aren't enough to let it go and say maybe the guy ran in for 2 minutes. But you already know all there is to know about trucking. You are the Bubba Gump of trucking!

    I have to agree with lonewolf on this one.

    Parking like that is not something a professional driver should be doing.

    Tantamount to insulting one another is the continual and contentious garble regarding pictures of a lousy parking decision. I've given serious thought for 4 years now as to whether I wanted an OTR job. I'd use Swift as the means primarily because I live in the Phx area. Already carry a class B with all endorsements. In light of this recent tit for tat between working drivers I've realized there are #### few drivers I'd care to associate with let alone converse.
