*blocks your path*

I was shit posting going like 70 today when i look up and some fucking homeless bitch with a shopping cart is on the inside lane i missed the cart by like 2 feet

The one before that I think, there were two OPs where I hate them damn there millenial commies lol i skipped a thread been hustling

Seattle is such a depressing city evem with legal weed they cant stop offing themselves

Sat in the back of a squad car for the better part of two hours when they found a note on a part of her body.

What note

>Buy milk
>Buy bread
>Dust living room
>Don't get run over by a truck

It said OP is a faggot. Wait...

you need to settle down with the middle schooler-tier photo editing

Imagine waking up in stale, semen-encrusted blankets and pulling yourself up to take a tri-way nozzle piss into a rusting Bush's Best Dark Red Kidney Beans can while pulling back the drapes your mother got you because it "matches the carpet" in your semi-truck cab. You see two scrawny hillbillies fighting over the last half-filled beer can, warmed from sitting in a broken down Escort for the past thirteen years. As your morning piss comes to an end with your dong spitting out the white drips of an STD, you stand up to a near straight posture, but not quite because your ceiling is only 5' tall and your back is crooked from sitting and driving most of your adult life. You climb down the truck's stairs and sit on back tires, light a cigarette, and make a mental bet on which Cletus is gonna win.

>lane keeping
That shit is seriously annoying. You don't want it anywhere near you.

>he doesn't take micro naps

yeah but dont you just love how you can really feel profit margins go up by .0001%? thats almost more than negligible or within calculation errors!

But dat $57k you made last year!

Sounds comfy to me

>tfw lighting up a bowl on a beautiful day on a off ramp

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

This is the pinnacle of load securement.

I've had so much sex with my dakimakura it stands on its own, my waifu is coming to life.

lane assist a shit

imagine playing Operation with an 80000lb 13'6" 73' long vehicle for 10 hours a day on roads built during the Roman Empire

you become a twitch steering specialist

Those chains look fucking weak 2/10 final destination to some unlucky lads

Sure about that?

Looks like 20 tonnes of lashing capacity between the 5 chains.

20 tonnes lashing on a 12.5tonne load is enough.

8mm chain with binder as weakest point with 4 tonne lashing capacity.

it's even worse with Prime trucks because they are all dialed with negative toe on one side so the truck constantly pulls to the right in case you fall asleep at the wheel

Excuse me, but wtf is that in front of the mudflap?

>hate millennials
>is a millennial himself

Not dead just busy senpai

A lot of the drivers here are dumb or annoying. We had two guys break off brake chambers incorrectly turning over cattle gaps. One got entirely stuck and blocked the lease road, the other dragged his trailer a few miles before realizing his brakes were locked.

It's been pretty neat though.

>Drum magazine assualt piss tank.

Just a water tank to wash your handswith, or use to survive when you break down in the middle of the Nullabor.

>wake up at 5am to get hook slip for Saturday bump
>head into linehaul
>"won't be ready til 9am"

Every other leg of this damn run has been 5-5:30am. Thought I was gonna get home early.

>he works saturdays
What a cuck

last week in NC, a driver lost one of our 10,000lb disks off his truck after "swerving for a deer" and didn't notice until the truckstop 450 miles later. It flew about 30ft before landing in a field. Sorry, no public pictures that I can find. Still waiting for full story.

>buy two way radio for my 4x4
>truckerfags keep making poop sounds and interrupting eachother with KSSH KSSH KSSH KSSH

I work sundays when needed, that sweet 1.5 and 2 X OT is great.

Never swerve always make mince.

I've never been there but Seattle looks really cozy. Many other US cities have sun coming out of their asses and it would very quickly piss me the hell off. Cloud cover or drizzle is my main jam. Honorable mentions to Pittsburgh and Anchorage.

Also bad weather regions or regions with actual winters are usually also better drivers. People from cities with constant sun and no snow absolutely can not drive, not even in good weather, and in bad weather it becomes a complete catastrophe.

Welcome to the world of adult trucking.

My truck has OnGuard, and it's supposed to have all three of those yet the lane departure warning doesn't work. Honestly, this thing is a nightmare to work with. The adaptive cruise control is nice, when it works. If it breaks, you're stuck with holding that pedal down all damn day. The ACC also freaks out at random times, slamming on the brakes if it detects anything, like a bridge over a hill, signs around a curve, or even a barrier wall on a curve. I've been brake-checked by nothing at all too. Worst part of all of this is, is that it's all hooked up to a front facing camera that records at will, like following too closely. All in all, these safety features are more of a pain in the ass than helpful.

You can tell you're lying because no one uses the radio anymore

>not having based Monday off so you can make appointments and get shit done.
>having to ask Mr. Shekelstein for time off so you can schedule appointments

And I'm the cuck?

I work Tuesday through Saturday, sunday/Monday off. It's way better for getting things done.

I think that's just from previous drivers hitting curbs

There's at least one high-powered base station in the midwest that does nothing but play retarded SFX clips. Can't be the only one fucking around so it may not necessarily be drivers you're hearing. Especially if it continues more than couple of minutes

>he doesn't get two weeks of paid sick time so he can use that and not worry about getting paid the day he needs off
It's like you enjoy being a wagecuck

>he has to use a sick day to run errands
The absolute state of normalfags.

Well we can't all be neets user. Who's gonna pay for yer tendies?

lol so insecure

...

Having weekends off is nice because you can plan stuff like normies, but it also sucks having to take a day off to get to a doc appt or the DMV.

Mondays are light for us tho so normally I can come in for a half day, still make all my base pay, and be off by 11am to get shit done.

Why does the Jewish Supermarket always take 5min to get the product off my truck and onto the shelf, but takes half the day to write the check and pay me?

>but it also sucks having to take a day off to get to a doc appt or the DMV.
Why does it suck if you're getting PAID for it.
Are one of those people that's gotta be productive for your boss each and every single day?
>he doesn't start early
>gets to leave early
>if he chooses to DMV or whatever the fuck is still open so he can go and do shit for the rest of the day
>or just use a sick day and finish shit early in the morning and enjoy free time or sleep in and do appointment late in day

No it sucks because I would rather used my paid days off to do something fun.

Like I said tho, that's the upside of starting early. If I really need to, I could get home by noon if I asked my boss. Might lose out on commission but it's still nice getting paid the base for coming in and bullshitting a couple hours.

Best work day ever was when I came in on a Saturday, grabbed a tractor, drove 20min down 95, picked up a 53' reefer, drove it back up to the plant, and clocked out. Was there less than 90min and got paid a full day.

What's one day matter if you get two weeks paid vac and two weeks paid sick time?
Hell no you wouldn't use your vac to run errands. But sick time? Who cares. Next year they regenerate.
>tfw after one more year I get bumped into 3 weeks paid vac

You're not even really getting paid. It's a loss of revenue if you aren't a mental midget. The smart thing to do is handle your errands on your day off, and sell your sick days back. Not that I would expect a melanin enriched individual to think of that.

Why? You scared of loss of productivity or something? Why would you waste a day off doing menial shit and not resting/having fun/etc. I can see the jew in you.

>having to use sick time for appointments rather than just using it when you're sick/extra vacation

It's like you enjoy things shoved in your anus, why not just admit you didn't know I had offset days off?

>look guise! I took shitty pictures and added Instagram filters to them!! :DDDD look how creative I am! XP

It's a free paycheck, retard. You're literally throwing away money.

Really stoked about this whole make more money thing.

In other news if I ever get diagnosed with a terminal illness
I will be visiting a couple lobbyists and CEO's

>sell your sick days back

I managed to break my wrist from intense fapping, had 5 months off and it was all covered with accumulated sick days. Only sell them when you decide to jump ship.

F2F has been running that for years. I just stayed on paper because the office was a mess at the time.

I don't know why you would opt out of making more money

If my tires say 110psi max cold under load, do I need to fill them all the way up to 110? If max is max, what's the min? Do you compensate for the weather, because like 110psi in one place might be like 120 somewhere warmer.

Air em up
Niggerface

Yes, good goyim, save up your sick days for twenty years just in case maybe you hurt your hand someday.

Minimum is based on individual tire load and manufacturer's specifications. The ideal pressure depends on whether you're trying to maximize tire life or fuel efficiency. Tires last the longest at their minimum required PSI. This will vary by axle. On my truck the steers need their max load rating, so that's 110psi minimum, the drives don't need shit, so that's 80psi, and having a spread axle on the trailer that's 5,000lbs a tire, so 100psi.

Cold inflation pressure takes into account atmospheric and friction heating. Starting at 110psi cold tires will get over 140psi going fast on a hot day. Air a tire to 110psi hot and it'll be down to 50psi when you wake up the next morning after driving north and parking where it's -20F overnight.

That's an interesting summary for Loves tire pass's number one customer.

Ever tried getting them to put antifreeze in your tires?

Does that thing even run?
