What Life on the road as a truck driver is really like!

There is a reason…..

I have gone 30 years accident free! Any opportunity I get to learn, I do it! If I don’t understand it, I ask to understand it!

Most of all I work my ass off! So when any of that gets hindered! I get pissed!

I’m the guy you will hear about but never see! If I understand….. Comprende’?

I’m thinking…..

I might be the new guy on the prison block! But I guarantee I will definitely be making you my bitch real quick!

I promise that Crete shit ain’t flying any fucking more! Comprende’! Dumbass!

There ya go….

This is what a $200 rain jacket looks like! Better than I thought! Definitely tough and will obviously make any woman orgasm with just a simple look…..

Most fishing jackets do that right?

Added bonus it has that cool butt protector I like on my jackets….

I so could have used this jacket this morning! It was raining hard as fuck!

What have I learned…..

Like every company! You have good workers and you have not so good of workers!

You have ones that take out a hinge on a walk in cooler. Then you have ones that have to hear about it from the customer!

You have fellow employees who hustle, you have others that don’t!

What I’m finding is they all seam to coexist here! I’m not judging anyone. If they are judging me, don’t care!

The only thing that’s really confusing me is if this trailer I’ve been pulling all week is a 40’er. How come it could easily take 22 40×48 single stacked pallets?

I’m guessing 26 – 28 sideways or chimney blocked pallets?

Either way I have learned a fucking lot the last week! The driving part I already knew! The produce business I know nothing! Except Arcadia lettuce is a fancy name for spring mix salad! 😉

Oh and when the warehouse substitutes an item it’s almost always returned…..

We’ll have fun! It’s dinner time! See ya!

Like I said just today…..

This job isnt that intimidating when you get a good nights sleep and kinda have an idea of the way things work…..

Yet, I digress! I’m literally having a blast! Had crusty head pass me coming out of Washington today! In his Crete truck! ROFLMAO!

Tried to flip him off but he didn’t see me! ;(

Oddly, he had a gaggle of smilers following behind him! Like I said, the shit rarely falls much past the butthole!

Then we hit I-84 and I swear I saw one nut going by in his England truck….. ROFLMAO!

Either way, cujo and I are ready for walk time! The brussel sprouts were good and the stew was even better…..

My work bag…..

by RoachKiller

Let’s see what’s in my work bag today?

2 jugs of coffee, my eyeglass case the daughter brought back from Japan for me!

An extra pair of pants, in case my running pants become an issue, and an empty tub of chaw…..

No food cus they got fruit and shit at work I can snag!

I literally pride…

Myself on making the worst face I can on of badges and license pictures. It’s not easy to pull off without the picture taker saying, “ don’t do that!”

Seriously, it’s a game I like to play! 🙂 the uglier, the funnier the better!

Count them….

by RoachKiller

14, 19 if you include the multiple invoices for the same place, mother fucking stops today! That’s not what was the shitty part! The shitty part is the doctor prescribed me meds to make the circulation better in my legs. So they ain’t so cold!

Well that lead to me getting a whopping 4 hours of sleep last night! Tonight I’m gunna stuff my face and pass the fuck out!

The job is fine! My knowledge of said job is growing!

I can definitely do this job for a while….. it’s my new challenge…..

Do you…..

by RoachKiller

Have any idea how nice it is to wake up with morning wood and piss in your own toilet? Or shower depending on severity of morning wood…..

It’s fucking orgasmic!

Not to mention shower in your own shower every day!

Ya know I….

by RoachKiller

Might have been hated by my fellow drivers at Crete! But whoever these people talked to at Crete gave me one hell of a glowing reference!

Thanks, babe! 😉

See I can say that now! I don’t work there anymore….

Everything I….

by RoachKiller

Do is pre thought out!

Unless we are real close friends! Anything I do or say has not had a thought process behind it! Cus I fucking trust you!

replies on social media have a thought process!

A simple hello has a multiple thought process’s !

Don’t ever forget that you wet cunts of human beings….…..

Now to cash….

by RoachKiller

In all the change I found in the junk drawer! That there is $17.00 worth of change! ROFLMAO!

Later this week I take back all the bags of bottles and cans clogging up the garage!

Bwoop bwoop!

As for the….

by RoachKiller

New job! It’s exactly as I expected! A little more interaction with customers than I like but so far everyone has been super cool!

I now also know I need a safety jacket rain coat! One that is breathable and has the little lip on the hood and the extra round part on the bottom of the back!

Oh and I still get free soda pop!

It’s a beautiful day…..

by RoachKiller

And cujo is not listening to a word a say! I guess this is her revenge for not pooping or peeing on the carpet while I’m at work….. 😉

See those running pants make an excellent base layer! All the ones I wear during the winter are extra thick! I personally don’t give a fuck what color they are! ( no hot pink or sexy patterns! )

But since I own 1 pair of pants that I hate wearing. I would wear these instead! Added bonus when I would have to wear my winter arctic bibs these made it much warmer….. not to mention they are super quick drying which is needed if you have to throw chains!

Anyhoot, me and the dog are keeping our new schedule even on days off! Managed to get a whole 29 hours in for the week. Which includes my 6 hour orientation and 23 hours on the road! They tell me soon I actually be allowed to drive! 😉

Oh and fyi, I really need someone to make me a picture chart of what each herb looks like! Especially cilantro and parsley!

Oh and my new sketchers work boots are also not good on slick surfaces….

I love telling….

Some of the OTR experiences I have had over th years!

Finally got to tell that one about the meat load I hauled to the stop light market there on the miracle mile in Chicago! Down by the inner city projects apartment buildings!

How they had to have an armed security guard come out and unlock and open the trailer doors and walk the trailer into the store dock. Cus there were 3 -4 people just waiting to get their hands on the boxes of meat I had in the trailer!….

That experience is always a crowd pleaser…..
