Well I personally can’t do anything about that because I don’t own a chainsaw, but appreciate the concern; I’ve chopped down trees half that size with an axe

@TripleSix

You still have to story of the high end call girl. I tried Google and didn't find it. I have someone I want to share it with. I will save it this time. Or point me to were I can find it.

Thanks

I used to train drivers on pulling wind blades.

We were loading blades in Corpus Christi going to Limon,CO. Myself, another veteran with 4 rookies pulling blades. I showed them how to set up their trailers and we all got loaded. It was 3pm before we got our BOLs. I told the group that we would try to leave out tomorrow AM. A couple of the female pilot cars got a crossed look on their faces.They talk to their driver and tell him that he doesn't have to listen to me and plant seeds of rebellion. One of the guys on my team told me that the other driver was pissed at me. Okay, that's fine. The reason why he was pissed was that he wanted to leave. That's fine too, but we are not leaving until the next day.

This bonehead driver finally comes up to me to talk.

Bonehead: Why aren't we leaving?
Six: Where is it that you want to go?
Bonehead: Somewhere.
Six: No. Be specific. Where exactly is it that you want to go? You have $3million on your trailer and so I need you to be specific on where it is you want to drive to.
Bonehead: Well, we could have made it to JunctionTX.
Six: You didn't do your homework.
Bonehead: What do you mean, Six?
Six: There is a metro curfew in Bexar County (San Antonio) from 4pm til 7pm. Texas has us routed up I37 to the 1604 loop, north then west to I10. If we hit the 1604 loop at 7 pm, we will have 56 miles to I10, and then 110 miles to Junction. What time would we be pulling in to the truckstop in Junction at 200 feet long? 10pm? Where are you going to park a 200 ft long load?
Bonehead: Oh, I didn't think about all that.
Six: I know. I will see you in the morning.

But your situation is different. You have WE who just wants meat in the seat. If you REALLY wan to teach, you have to enjoy what it is you do. And then you have to be able to explain what it is you do to a 3 yr old.

Anybody with the patience to explain things to stupid people that they should already know is a better man than I. I can't do it.

I tried explaining to a straight truck driver on the dock yesterday that the load he had 2 days ago was overweight.

"How the hell did you know that???"

Simple. I heard them talking about it in the office before I left for my run, whereupon someone mentioned having 11000 lbs on that truck. I took an identical truck out one Saturday, and when I got back I drove it across the scale to see what it weighed empty out of curiosity, so that's how I know you can't get more than 9000-9500 on it legally.

Further, the office idiots won't tell you anything because they don't know anything. If you want information you have to find it yourself.

That is the one. I thought you also posted it in one article attachment. Or so I thought.
