Trucking dudes

Truckers tend to keep their panties in a wad. On a yard or at a truck stop theres always a driver behind you freakin out because you're going too slow even tho youre looking for a spot to back in. If anyone accidentally makes a mistake and does something stupid they get out of their trucks to film the driver and talk down to them and put them on the bonehead truckers youtube channel. Then if you are at a carwash youll get them honking and yelling you can see them in their cab jumping up qnd down screaming and youre thinking "wtf I do to you im not even going slow.." then theyll yell something like 'you dont need to wash it damnit its gonna rain today!!" And youre just thinking "then why are you here..."

These people are miserable ppl man and its like theyre out for revenge on other drivers because they're angry. You'll switch lanes trying to avoid a slow car thats coming off the median you wont even cut off the trucker in the other lane then he will drive beside you and pretend hes gonna run you off the road because you went in his lane and slowed him down 2 miles an hour. Whatelse... ah yeah if you workout at a truck stop doing pushups and jumprope youll see a 350lb man with a large coke in his hand filming you and laughing because youre doing a workout.

Thats enough complaining for today i reckon. I wish we had dueling laws id duel these motherfuckers

    I went through a phase a few months back where I watched a lot of trucker dashcam videos and read quite a few comments on them by truckers. Given the shit they have to deal with from their employers, the people at both ends of deliveries and all the idiots on the road in between, I wouldn't be at all surprised if the default mood for many truckers is Generally Pissed Off

    Then there's the fact that truckers spend a lot of time on their own; that can do weird things to your head. Also, I understand that talk radio is very popular with truckers; listening to that toxic shit for hours on end every day will definitely warp your view of the world.

    As it happens, I spent about an hour last night reading a long Reddit saga about a newbie trucker and the seriously fucked up partner he had to deal with for the first three months after he'd got his CDL. The story is very well-told, and it comes to a satisfying conclusion.

      Resilience. Truckers are the most non-resilient people in the world. I stopped listening to my CB radio on road trips because of it.

      I have nothing against non-normal people, and think that tolerating the broad diversity that you have at IIN generally enhances resilience. A human zoo is amusing. Truckers are anything but. I don’t even think the lot lizards can cheer them up.

      Funny, as it happens I'm in a trucking school right now to get my cdl. Let me tell you it is a mixed bag of personality types.

      Too many "alpha" males getting on eachothers nerves. With the amount of dingbats that someone might expect out of the trucking career. With the added bonus of them being perverts both new truckers and our older instructors.

      Yeah the the pissed off attitude is replaced by two faces: your professional face. The one you use when you are in front of customers and the real face of just not giving a fuck. It's a stressful career so you cant really throw stones at anyone for why they chose to be a truck driver.

        I clicked on this assuming it was your post, the double exclamation mark seemed off-brand though, that and “id duel these motherfuckers”.

          Nope I found this post to be ironic timing though. I'm not even the first trucker user on here. Weird guy and mega driver are here.

          Suppose I'm the first young blood on here though.

            I always pictured weird guy working in a warehouse for some reason. Maybe you and him will drive by each-other some day, passing like ships in the night.

              Dont make it sound so romantic. Unless hes making random routes probably not. I have an assigned route that I'll be taking, fine by me. I'm new, and shit terrified of driving something that 60 feet long. Having something consistent eases the amount of shit I'll have to do.

              Doesnt help much that I'll be a chemical hazmat tanker. Cause I wanted that stamp on my license and the extra 15 cents a mile.

    it's like., you really need a vacation. Dont drive, fly. You really are putting all truckers under the same umbrella saying they are angry pissed off, etc. etc. I happen to know alot of truckers and maybe they do get upset on the road. They drive for a living. To sit still they make no money. ZZAND HOW MANY JACKASSES DO YOU THINK 1 DRIVER DEALS WITH EVERYDAY ? Any idea ? People on the roads driving have so very little respect for other people on the road. People seem to have the attitude " fuck you I will go as slow or as fast as I want, and nothing you can do." Then they tell you to piss off, one trucker probably has to deal with idiots on the road from 1st in the morning till they pull off to sleep. Hell, go on YouTube and search for driver fails with semi trucks. People try to pass, to squeeze into a lane with inches to spare between the idiot driver and that 25 ton of truck and supplies. If people driving cars would be respectful and not try to race to get in front of a truck because the car driver "just has to be in front.
    Try a test. Next time you are driving the freeway when the person in front of you in the fast lane is not going fast enough for what you like, scoot to the slow lane and act like you are going to pass them. 9 times out of 10 when you get in slow lane and get beside the vehicle in fast lane, just start speeding up to go around them. And most times vehicle will speed up in fast lane because they have that itch or that urge to be in front.it just takes a bit more respect for others on the road.

    Anyone mocking you for exercising is a loser. I remember a school trip when I was 14, we had lunch in Hyde Park and a man was doing star jumps, burpees etc with his iPod in, minding his own business and some of the guys started laughing at him. They were out of shape then and looking at Facebook 11 years later nothing has changed. Keep doing your pushups.

    This behavior is not limited to truckers, unfortunately.
