A Southern Yankee's Winter Blast

[Notits]

Ah tankers. Ye fuckin haw. I was a milkman for about 4 yrs. I started out with tankers then yard work then dolly delivery. All aspects. Tankers are a freaky experience. Butt puckering if you will. Even with a 600hp cummins pulling over 40 tons it lets you know whos boss. Even baffles help a little but your fucked if you have to stop or react quick

I was smooth bore up until I started fuel ( a whole other set of terrifying circumstances to deal with ) Smooth bore food grade was by far the scariest thing ive done in a truck and i did it for years, farm pick up to long haul. Even heavy haul - 12' wide grossing 160,000 on monarch pass was a walk in the park compared to half full skim loads across pennsylvania week after week in the winter...

Remember on I88 about 10 years ago when the road opened up and swallowed those 2 drivers whole and were never seen from again? That has always stuck with me. They never found the bodies.

Quite stretch of highway from binghamton to albany. Part of the catskill mountains. We are consistently in the top 5 most dangerous career in the world year after year

I always make sure not to do stupid shit driving in front of trucks bc of that.

 

[gr8whitetrukker]

With a tanker you go to stop and the tidal wave of liquid rushes forward and pushes you well past your intended stopping point. Or in corners the load settles high which is also crazy.

People can ignorantly make light of or say stupid shit about what we do. But the truth is it takes more talent and skill to do what we do than a pro racer of any machine.

Dont believe me? I can back it up

I believe it, I always give ALL trucks as much room as they need, don't cut them off, don't pull out in front them, I know its fucking hard ass work being a trucker!!

 

[gr8whitetrukker]

All work is hard. Ours is just dangerous. Mostly for YOU.

Tired. Today's workout was fueled by my argument with my wife. Some times I just wanna poke her eye out with a fuckin spork. Looks like no pussy for me for a while

 

[gr8whitetrukker]

My son is so damn disrespectful. Causes alot of friction between us. She never agrees with my discipline unless its convenient for her. Irritates me to no end. She wont back me up and makes far too many excuses for him. Its all very. Frustrating

 

[FuriousWO]

I've had similar problems with my ex-wife and kids. The job of being a father and teaching your sons to be a man (respectful, honest, etc...) is exactly opposite of what she does with our kids. If frustrating as hell, women want a "man" but if you treat them like pussies you get a little bitch.

 

[MANWHORE]

My father was always at the bar,
but I had my uncle to kick my ass..

All I need is that Scion TC and it's a wrap

 

[gr8whitetrukker]

My son truly needs discipline. Ive never seen an 8 yr old act like such an ass.

Now I see that its not always about the parents. Kids can choose their own character type too. We didnt raise him like that.

The only thing he respects is a firm stance and aggressive tone. He will never do anything by being nice. I told my wife to do it by herself then. She knows she cant get any where with him. She NEEDS me to put him in his place.

I know it sounds bad but this really sucks.

Thats some good weight for the military press, you musta been pissed at her.

My shoulders are very dominant In all my presses.

Don't beat yourself up too much, they go through phases

negative ghost rider... Not saying it does not take skill to drive a tanker because i know it does but for instance take a professiknal motocross racer... That take way more skill... Just look at the ratio of how many pro mx racers there are vs tankers..
