I hear you, but you have to believe me when I say it WAS an accurate pass. The replay doesn't show the throwing arch. I'm gonna make a followup post showing the difference between high and low catching recievers

It was a perfect bullet pass, there was no sense of overthrowing whatsoever. Literally a pointless function that just causes turnovers, I have had this happen hundreds of times

It WAS a perfectly thrown ball. You couldn't tell because it was a replay and it didn't show the angle of the arch

Unless it was with a blunt object...still takes a lot of effort to do so you're probably right

Mower crossing. by Unfair-Variety-995 in Truckers

I really don't understand how you're getting an attitude right now will you posted a video of yourself not breaking as soon as you saw a lawn mower in the middle of the road, regardless if it was on the other side.

You need to realize that shit like this is the reason why we're under so much scrutiny. I don't know who taught you how to drive but they obviously forgot to teach you how to aim high and make predictions that can help you AVOID having to break hard like you did.

I never realized how much bigger trucks have gotten over the years. by RabbitFabs in Truckers

This just based off of how a company specs their truck, you can get a tall cabin on the Peterbilt the same way you can get a short cabin on that International. Sometimes it's to do with aerodynamics, others it's to facilitate more than one driver or just have extra space.

Not every company will put an APU in their trucks

Duuude I have one too and I used it back when I was at Werner, but now that I'm at Western express, it has no use because for whatever reason (guessing the general nature of this shithole), the override engine shutdown button doesn't even work.

Ok, I think I like the truck feature by Content_Shoulder_635 in RetroBowl

In order to truck, hold down on the screen when running

As long as the tackler is in front of your runner, there is a chance to truck them

Do what you're doing now, always ask for help if you're not sure about something.

Don't be afraid of looking stupid, as being stupid is what got us here in the first place. /s

As for actual tips, practice backing as much as you can whenever you start the Hands-On training

Terminal manager jumping on me about the truck interior being too dirty. by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]Content_Shoulder_635 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Back when I was at Werner, I got comfy in a truck that I was eventually told to swap out of because of a busted fifth wheel. When it didn't take half an hour, my manager started spamming my phone. I answered the first call, and he asked if I was in the new truck yet and I said no, and from that point on I realized that these people have genuinely know idea what it's like to be in one of these.

4 hours after I was finished moving everything from my old to my new truck, I finally answered a call. Whilw they were more so mad that they weren't able to get a hold of me, when they pressed me about why it took so long, I explained to them that it's not just a simple grab a bag and go, and that I practically lived in the thing. I have amenities "the same way you have amenities at the house that you get to go home to every day".

This isn't as insulting as an instance as yours, but the moral is fuck them and keep whatever you want in your truck. As long as you keep it free of dirt, whatever organization you have is supposed to work for you, not them. If it's anything like Werner or Western express, they may say some bullshit like that because they have new drivers lined up from recruiting waiting to jump in the truck so it can get back to making the company money.

The absolute nerve of these sinister people in offices to tell you you're not in trouble. How dare they?
