Lol

I should have made a number 8 for my last trainer. Getting pettled with nail clippings while driving and not having the decency to pick them up.

 

Got my load assignment to. A one stop heavy juice load to roanoke. 7 am friday. So the race to the yard begins.

 

This is a rough crowd!

 

I could tell you some horror stories about my two trainers.First one showered once a week.Jekyll and Hyde.One minute he was as nice as could be,the next he was screaming at me,get off the clutch,get off the brakes,dont grind the gears.Heck I get along with everybody,I was ready to kill this sob after a week.Luckily he quit after two weeks.My second guy was a nice guy.But he would drive during the day with his hip hop cranked.But me in the seat late at night with little sleep due to the loud music and he would go back and go to sleep.And I mean in difficult positions.I80 THRU Wyoming with moisture if you know what I mean.Thru Three Mile in Oregon.Penna Turnpike in the rain at midnight.You name it.But I got through it.Looking back on it,it was not safe,but it made me a better driver.Having said that,when I trained I made sure none of those things happened on my truck.I like to think I had some good drivers that got off my truck. Started my new gig today guys.Four days of 12 hrs,with overtime after eight hrs,and three days off a week.Sweet.Ill keep you guys posted.

 

Hmmm.... I think I know that guy. Can you ask him if he's ever been a trainer at TMC?

 

<- photo contest winner, just saying...

 

What's wrong with pee cups? Pilot coffee cups even have a nifty snap in sipper to keep it from sloshing out........

 

Congrats! There were some really cool pics. I particularly liked the one that one the Best Urban Setting

 

Thanks, that's mine...

 

Picked my load up, gross 79640 with 3/8 on fuel. Had to slide my trailer to the 12th hole to be just under 34000. So doing the fuel shuffle. Got the green light on all 3 scales on I10 and wildwood was closed.
