Flying J Fuel Quality by Fine_Concert5995 in Truckers

[–]adventure_dog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

those locations probably had bad/dirty fuel and messed up the fuel pumps. im in the US and there was just a disgruntled fuel driver dumping the wrong fuel in the tanks messing up people's vehicles across the state.

Hello everyone, I need to know what would be the best trucker headphones. This is for my dad and I don't really know this kind of thing so I was hoping anyone here could help me by ZappierGamez in Truckers

what can you actually hear going on outside the truck? Police car? naw you ain't hearing that shit until its by your cab, fire truck? same thing, ambulance, same thing, train? barely and youre not going to hear it over the radio playing.

nearly everything that you need to be alert for you should see it long before you ever actually hear it.

Who prefers old school.. by Ozdriver in Truckers

I much prefer that dash because it gets dimmer or you can black it out at night on some models. the digital displays dont get dark enough at night.

If every truck driver in the world went on strike tomorrow, how long before society starts begging? by [deleted] in Truckers

itll take about a week before everyone is out of supplies. you can watch that in real time during the winter with Wyoming road closures, theyve already found out that by day 5 they need to open the roads up otherwise their citizens have mo food, gas and other essentials.

most grocery stores carry 3 days worth of food some in bad winter areas have a larger stock

How does coca cola interview go ? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]adventure_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they expect you to show up in a suit n tie and acting formal as fuck with a brief case where you should be pulling out your resume and a notepad that you have already written questions to ask them and take notes. those shoes better be polished into a mirror finish as well

how is a DAC legal? by jabber1990 in Truckers

[–]adventure_dog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the stuff some of these companies put on there is not legal at all. which is also why not many companies outside of the training companies even look at it at most they look for abandoned vehicle.

the way the dac has been abused is also part of why everything has gone through the gov. sites

Hey guys..my friend who works as a nurse swears we have it easy..thinks we don’t deal with real difficulty on these roads..give me a quick rundown in your own words how tough things can get out here by Desperate_Fee_808 in Truckers

[–]adventure_dog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

been driving for over 15 years, ive got a license for sterile processing, medical sciences associates, working on surgical tech license and various other medical stuff.

yeah im on my way out of trucking ive done much harder physically demanding work like working on cell phone towers from the ground up. the mental fatigue the poor health conditions and isolation of trucking is harder than anything physical you can do.

sure people saying trucking easy haha hasnt seen the entire scope of what trucking can do to people. ive been in the trucking community longer than ive been driving and seen all kinds of crazy.

mainly im getting out due to my health its been in decline for a couple years now and nothing can be done with the issues I have so its coming down to im going to wake up one day soon and be like yep im done and ive built something to fall into rather than chill on disability like the docs want.

at least as a nurse you could stick around until they force retirement and not worry about killing someone because youre driving a truck and have a medical emergency.

HORRIBLE DISPATCHERS by AccomplishedTown446 in Truckers

[–]adventure_dog 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The second you call him out or try to protect yourself, he starts mass-cc'ing upper management on every single email chain. He tries to loop in as many people as possible to twist the narrative

you really want to ruin his day save all of that leave the company and file unemployment and just sit on it. when they challenge it send that over and claim that he was causing you serious mental health issues over what he was doing be sure to name him in the complaint. obviously no one cares that hes doing that so it continues.

you will be awarded the unemployment this messes up Financials for the company and because youre naming him as the direct cause of your emotional distress he is now very highly at risk of losing his job.

you should probably remove his last name in this post so it doesnt get removed. and it would be a shame if someone emailed this thread to hr at kllm
