So do u know what a glad hand is yet?
I do not. Do I want to?
We need to get u up to snuff. Cant go around lookin like a rookie...
Pigtail?
Tandem?
Kingpin?
Lot lizard?
A bear?
A gator?
A billy big rigger?
S cam?
Trolley brake?
Retarder?
How much weight per axle?
How much weight per tandem?
How much weight can be redistributed in one hole my moving the sliders?
How much air should your canisters hold?
Gonna need to learn all this and much much much more and by heart. Your going to need to learn to read minds. And you will also need shoulders big enough to carry the weight of the world. Cuz everything WILL be your fault. Regardless if you did any thing wrong or not

Gonna need to learn HOS (hours of service) regs, DOT regs, state regs, and general double shifting techniques. When you get salty enough youll learn to float all your gears except the one at the stop sign. Youll never use a clutch again. Once you can put a cup of coffee on the floor open topped and shift thru all 18 without spilling a drop you have accomplished some thing!

I just know lot lizard is like a prostitute and gator is a blown tire on the highway.
I've heard about the floating gears thing from my cousin. Last time I drove a stick was 2004, I'm gonna be a total newbie with it again.
If this new job opportunity I have pans out looks like I'll have to get my cdl's
but I think they're going to pay for it everyone wants my dmax training

I'm not one to use a prostitute, ever, but this pleases me.

Hmm. I knew a bunch of your other terms but not sure what this one is.
You gotta use the clutch at the stop sign. You just out smarted yourself
Correct, your a natural
Dont worry. It wont help you one bit. Youll have to start out double clutching every gear and the more difficult part, matching road speeds with gear box speeds on the deceleration. No synchronizers here bub. You gotta match it yourself. Grip the knob softly like your making love to it and itll be much easier. When i learned to drive we had this old Italian dude. Looked like Frank Sinatra. He was classy as hell and stearn too. Not usually a trait you see out here. He would hit me in the knuckles every time i tried muscling the gear in. Said "hey fuckin muscles, RELAX" . Embarassed the hell out of me. Its a finesse game. Lil secret, the skinny pedal will make your shifts a WHOLE lot smoother. Not that damn clutch
Its the best torque breaker there is. A smart right foot.
Gotta remember these beasts boast over 2000lb ft tq at 1100- 1500 rpm.
Most consumer engines even the big diesels idle at that or close to it. Its a whole new animal. Raw, unadulterated power!!!
Cant wait to see you succeed! Get some

I knew a guy in highschool that was riding along with his little brother, teaching him how to drive. When they came to a stop sign, he said, "now, the ones with 8 sides are kind of optional... You should stop at them, but you don't really need to."
That kid ran stop signs for weeks until his dad rode with him and asked him what in the fuck he was doing burning all these stop signs... His son told him, and the dad proceeded to go home and kick his older son's ass.
That sounds like half of Texas. See it everyday. They usually do it while staring intensely right in to their phone too. Hmmmm, are they called accidents when their done completely on purpose? There are no accidents any more. There all on purposes's

220lbs morning weight
Comp squat 410x3, added wraps 450x3, 475x3
Sumo block pull 635x1, 650x1, 675x1 (PR, seven plates)
Front squat 245x7, 245x7
Didn't get much volume in. Exhausted from life plus twelve days in a row of work. Been a lot of drama, female problems and lack of sleep lately. I'm beat physically, mentally and emotionally. Happy with the seven plate block pull anyway.
Got Monday morning off to drive over to the college and get officially enrolled.

Nice PR and that should help keep your mood up despite all the BS happening.

I wish. Unfortunately the BS has been tremendous lately.
Hopefully soon the BS will die down.

Awesome, get it done!

So here's the deal. I'm already put a down payment and I'm going no matter what. Since it's such short notice and I'd never even been to this school I found out today there is a program that'll cover everything FAFSA doesn't including travel expenses, etc. But I'm going to have to jump through major hoops ASAP to get it. They won't reimburse, so it has to be done in the next couple days. So I'm probably going to have to quit my job tomorrow. But looking at it like four more days of $9/hour versus about $4k it's a no brainer to make sure this happens.
Sucks to have to bail on short notice. I did go out and find another dude that my boss hired that started today, so I feel like I've done my part. I've got to go to the DMV and get a copy of my MVR and of course all our DMVs are closed on Monday. Also gotta get my old college transcripts and proof of income for the last six months. The kind of stuff I can't get done if I'm at work until 3:30pm every day. Then once i have everything i have to turn it in, then wait for them to approve it, then i have to take a three hour written test. All before Friday and the school is nearly an hour drive each way, so there's no way I can finish the work week and do that. Feels like a shitty thing to do, but this is my future on the line. You agree?
Also, gonna go Supernatural fanboy because that GIF is from one of my favorite episodes. An extended scene actually, from an episode called "Yellow Fever." @insaiyan93 can conform it is in fact hilarious.
Anyway, I'm excited. Just gotta get all this stuff done for the extra financial aid because I need it desperately right now. I was planning on living on loans and credit cards and this'll make the next few months much easier.
Thanks, definitely going to.
