Are you disgusting?

Most certainly, a disgusting driver may be one who you can not stand next to in a fuel line or even better eating in a restaurant sitting near you who has no concern for their hygiene, makes no difference male or female.

But the worst in my opinion is a driver who rambles on the CB "F' this and "MF" that. This driver has no respect for other fellow drivers who may have their young children in the truck with them over summer vacation or any other time, as I use to years ago when I was on the road showing my 2 sons the USA!.

The best remedy for that is turn the cb OFF and leave it off.I don't have a cb so I don't have to worry about the idiots.
 
I would ceertainly hope I am not one of the disgusting one's y'all are referring to in here, although I do have my moments after loading, until I can get to a shower. Doing the heavy haul thing, sometimes that means waiting until the end of the day as I am restricted to daylight driving alot of places.

It is nice when you can shower at a customers after loading though, and I do try to take advantage of that. Early this past March, I had the "privelage" of loading at Keen's facility in League City, TX. Their yard was muddy as hell, the day was hot, and on top of it all, I blew a hydraulic line on my rgn and had to swap it out for a new one before I could get my jeep under the trailer. The ever friendly terminal manager there informed me that the showers at this facility were for Keen personell only when I asked about using the shower once I was finished. I hadn't seen a single Keen driver there all day, but I thanked him for letting me leave my trailer there over night, I had no permits yet, and proceeded down the road to find a motel so I could shower before I fed myself. Its really great the way some of these companies treat outside carriers.
 
Ive never delivered to a comapny that has showers.There are times I wish they did.

LOL!! You weant to get dirty looks?! Be an ATS driver and load in a Keen yard! Man, this one time I didn't thik i was going to make it out of the Decatur, IL yard...
 
The driver of this truck was as disgusting as the truck itself:

View attachment 1964

And the dimwit locked himself out of the truck and was trying to break the side window with a rock. When he failed at that he finally had to call a locksmith to get the door open.

What I fail to understand is that this guy had just bought fuel at the truckstop where this took place, so he had to have a shower credit. No excuse for not getting a shower! And no excuse for driving around in a pigsty like this!

Disgusting!!!!
 
I hear that.This I assume hes a driver was getting pizza and I walked passed him and a very strong BO odor.Can't these folks smell themselves.At least put some deoderant on to cover up the offensive smell.I know hwat u mean about driving around in a pigsty.Some of these folks,how can they live like that.At least shovel a path to the sleeper area.A driver for my company lives like that.First thing I said to him when I met him was gees dont u ever clean this place up.He had to pick me up at a trk stop awhile back.

I just seen the pic u took of his trk.That is bad.At least wash it for the publics sake so the site of it does'nt burn their retna.Only time my trk looks bad is when it's nothing but a sloppy mess outside.Even then i'll get it washed.I don't need to be driving around in an embarrassing eyesore.

Should send that picture in to their sales department, tell them you have changed your mind about them hauling your freight.
 
I will admit I was seriously disgusting for a while today. Used 7 big tarps to cover 2 O/D loads. I was just BLACK by the time I finished.

All showered and fed now though!
 
im clean now but i gotta put brakes all around my tractor and front axle of the trailer tomorrow. then change oil and grease and change the oil in the rears and trans. so i will be pretty disgusting tomorrow. and its supposed to rain.....oh joy joy.
