    That’s one thing that boils my blood! It’s either from not paying attention or not caring. Either way, they got no business driving.

    Did he forget he had a pole in front of him and plow into it when he went to leave?

    I got there after the fact.
    All i know is what the guy beside him told me. He was already parked there, the Freightliner pulled in, hit it hard enough to bend the top of the steel pole over a couple inches.
    I wonder if he was scared to back away from it incase that was what was holding the bumper on lol. We were only stopped about 15 minutes so left before he came out.

    He's trying to be like the original. Just ain't got the style to do it right. Somebody ought ta train him proper. You gotta knock that sob all the way over. And it don't count unless there's glass on top.

    When you know more about trucking than you last few employers. You start to wonder who is the dummy?
    None of my previous employers know what fleetowner.com is or landline magazine. They do not know what the value of they're work is? As they like to all average what seems to me $1.50 mile with reefer. My current employer is younger than me. And he only knows the office side of things. I believe if I knew the office side I could be pretty well off. But after 10 years I just go wherever the freight needs to get to. I would like to learn flatbed, or stepdeck being all I know is van, reefer.
    Post script. I hate parking on curbs in tweaker run areas. And I hate being stressed out over stupid beer loads to Chicago.
    And 4 hours a day for the past few days makes me ""FEEL LIKE THIS! AND NOW I WANT TO CAPLOCK EVERY WORD I TYPE!!!!!""
