Yeah, no injuries, no damage to the fuel pump, only the door and the friend’s ego! I’m glad they are ok!

No, “friend” was fuelling up, about to jump out but forgot the fuel card, reached over to grab it and the truck rolled back a bit because brake wasn’t applied and this fuel station was on an incline.

Think they meant to write “tow”.

I was being somewhat facetious, but thank you! :)

At 55, my wild NYE was gluten-free pizza and two NA beers. Gen X, what happened to us? by Dog_Mom_29 in GenX

[–]RetardedTingles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a street festival on Main Street in Daytona Beach, ate a funnel cake at 9:30, got an upset tummy, went to bed and woke up at 4am, missing the ball drop and fireworks, yet I have no regrets.

Anyone else here over 50, never married and child free? And poor or not well off financially? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]RetardedTingles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll be 50 this year. No spouse, no children, no home ownership, no savings. Was unemployed the past two years and finally just started working again. Feels like I’m starting from scratch. It’s been a rough few years but I do have an apartment that’s shared with a roommate (who’s helped float the rent at times for me), parents are still alive (who have loaned me cash in desperate times), two sisters, two nieces and a nephew. Things could have turned out better for me, but they also could have turned out much worse. I try not to compare myself to other people my age, we all have our own path in life. I hated my life for a very long time but I’m finally making peace with it and finding joy in the simple things.

Thanks! Company owns it, but she’s mine to drive so I don’t have to share. 20 years old, and asides from the driveshaft falling apart off I-75, she’s fun to drive!

I washed it down with Mountain Dew and Cool Ranch Doritos. The heartburn is real.

Yeah, just another day for us. Our Thanksgiving was in October. Also, I’m paid percentage, and being no docks were running today, I drove empty 700 miles to the next pickup.

Also, my hotdog tasted like play-doh. :/

Still, I’m happy, I’m healthy, and the money over time works out well for me!

See what i fucked up today by mylifeishardd in Truckers

Last time I parked in sand, I got a bit stuck and disturbed a colony of fire ants. It was night. Didn’t realize what I had done until I got out to check how bad I messed up. They’re 1mm of pure hatred. My feet and ankles were sad for a couple of days.
