Honk your horn at me, yell "HEY!", whistle at me or give me the "come here" gesture with your index finger will get you a nice view of my backside as I keep walking away.

Had a true professional driver deliver some pipe today. Was inside doing some paperwork and I hear an air horn blast. Not unusual, since one of the drivers for the place next door blasts his every time he backs into their yard.

Finish paperwork and hop on the forklift to grab some pallets outside I needed to ship out LTL. See this Peterbilt sitting where our truck is usually parked, with this grizzly looking little dude standing by it. He's giving me that "about time" look.

Guess walking in to say hi, get a cold bottle of water and maybe some popcorn for a snack was a tall order for him. Think he would have sat out there for quite awhile had I not driven out back by chance.

Can't complain about a prompt unload if you can't be bothered to come and let us know you've arrived....

I always wonder how some people are so inconsiderate and lazy. I do everything I can to make it easy on the shipper/receiver. It helps us both out really.

You honk at me like I'm supposed to come running, I will ignore you. I'm glad you did him that way. He's a prick.

Exactly. I am always on the spot with getting trucks unloaded ASAP when they come in, because I've been in their shoes. I don't pull stuff off, put it away, and take an hour or more. I yard the #### off, sign their bills, and worry about putting the product away after they head out to their next load.

But yeah, honking a horn and not being bothered to walk in and make ones presence known is a no go.

Well, ponder this at least before you tar and feather this guy.

I have an HVAC supplier I deliver to regularly. I also deliver to the pest control and air compressor companies on either side of them. The HVAC guy is always running around in the warehouse and if he sees me coming he wonders where I’m going, so if I’m there for them I’ll give a quick toot on the air horn after popping the brakes. Usually he appears by the time I roll the skid to the back. If not, I’ll figure he’s in the john or something and I’ll walk inside.

Also, some folks will give a toot on the air horn as a safety measure before backing up. UPS drivers btw are required to.

7018 needs clean steel (mill scale, rust, paint, etc. flap disked or wire wheeled off). For something that thin, 3/32" 7018 about 90 amps, and adjust from there.
7018 rule of thumb is 1 amp per rod diameter size and adjust from there. Based on that theory, 1/8" (.125 diameter) rod would be 125 amps. 3/32" (.093 diameter) rod would be 93 amps.
Excessive spatter is generally an indication of too long of an arc.

That’s also an indication of 6011 rod.

Guess you'd really get offended if somebody called you Honey Melons eh ?
OH ! Sorry Bear ! Didn't realize it was you !
You sounded exactly like my neighbor lady. She's a sensitive gal like you are. Except you're not a gal.
Uh ..... hmm. This isn't going well, is it ?

Doesn't have anything to do with being sensitive, it has everything to do with being courteous and respectful......but then again, I have to keep reminding myself I can't expect outta other folks what I expect outta myself.
