On Tuesday there was a funeral for a fallen Police Woman in my area. Going between the place where the funeral was held and the cemetery there was a several miles long possession of vehicles. When the possession entered the interstate immediately trucks on the other side began pulling off the roadway with many actually getting out and standing facing the possession. What was really nice was when the trucks decided to block all 3 lanes to force the rude people continuing to pass by at 70 mph to stop and show respect to the fallen hero. A big shoutout to the truckers for their show of respect!!!

Within my first few months of driving I did something similar. I was in Texas and was told to get an empty about 80 miles out, turn around and backtrack to load because the place I was at didn’t have any empty’s. I did the 160 mile round trip with the trailer I was told to get, and when I made it back the guard doing the trl inspection asked me why I had four pallets of tiles in the nose. Long story short I had to do the 160 mile round trip AGAIN to get an ACTUAL empty, and had to wait out the weekend since I missed my original Friday appointment. They tried to take the excess miles out of my pay but I fought it considering the company told me the load was a drop hook when it wasn’t, and had me pick up a trailer with stuff already on it by accident..

Rule#2: Don't use full throttle when bobtailing or empty. Rule#3: Stop the truck every 4 hours and let your co-driver know you're going to stop. Don't drive into the boonies where there's no washroom without at least stopping and letting your guy in the bunk get a pee in.

Male drivers grow beards. Female drivers have messy buns. I've more than once got out of the bunk, walk threw a store, looked in the mirror while washing my hands, laugh, and think "welp, are you living life to the fullest." I love the sunrises and sunsets I've been able to see on the road. Thank you.

Know how you feel. I took a load from the ups regional hub in Salt lake to the old ups building that is off of the 201 and redwood, just to find out they had me take the completely wrong trailer. The trailer I took was a new jersey load. So had to go back and get the right one. Thankfully it was a 10 min drive back to the hub. Classic UPS.

@stevenredman1582 3 жыл бұрын

AVR is a mess sometimes. Then you have to double check to make sure your run is even dispatched or arrived. Example: Orlando 328 to Orlando home delivery 3327. Get two empties and head home to Charlotte 282 (make sure you don't get one or two of their 33 foot trailers). A week later they still had me at Orlando 328 because there isn't any routing in the system from 3327 to 282. Not doing local work as a result. Stay safe out there, Shelby..!!

I am on your side. The dispatchers need to be better trained to ask questions pertinent to absolute clarity. I am sorry that whoever took your dolly needs to have their own dolly. More cameras are needed to catch the offenders and make them correctly load your trailer as repayment for their offense.
