haveblue posted:It's hosed up garages day apparently My old roommate managed to get a uhaul truck wedged under the outcropping of an apartment building, he hit that poo poo so hard the building shook and all the tenants came out thinking an earthquake or a bomb hit. He managed to get it unstuck and left without leaving his info or anything. Then he tried to be slick again and left the uhaul parked by their drop off center and tried to tell them he dropped it off the day before. They didn’t believe him and he got hit with all kinds of charges because the top of the truck was all smashed to poo poo.

I guess the company and the union saw something in him. One week of retraining and back on the road. They made a good decision there. Thirty years later, still in the business. Helped me out a bunch when I was just starting. I worked for a dude who somehow convinced a customer to let him deliver through the front door while the overnight stock crew was there (so, midnight until sixish). He's showing me where he backs up to drop the ramp through the door when, *crunch*, he drives right into the security camera. "We'll just come back later." he says, as we haul rear end out of there. That was a fun phone call to listen in on a few hours later: "Hey, Jack. Were you here earlier?" "Nah, we got a late start today." "Are you sure about that? "Yup." "Are you sure your truck wasn't here at 1:21 this morning?" "Um, yeah." "Are you absolutely sure you weren't here at 1:21 AM and crushed the security camera with your truck?!" "no"

It’s a miracle they aren’t wrecked even more often than they are. You forgot driven by people who are stressed out, almost certainly low on sleep and rushing to meet deadlines. You don't sleep that well with your entire life in a steal-able metal box parked outside your hotel room. It really is a miracle you don't see them involved in more accidents than you do.

Helped me out a bunch when I was just starting. The place i work for has had 2 different drivers do stuff like that and then get fired, not for the accident itself, but for not reporting it. Like, you'll eventually get fired if you keep running in to poo poo, especially if there's other issues, but not reporting it is pretty much guaranteed firing once they find out. e: the worst part about someone else running into something is we all end up having to watch the fuckin' Get Out And Look video again a kitten fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Apr 25, 2021 |

Seems like it might be new/under construction and there could be signs missing. That said it should be pretty easy to figure out roundabouts regardless. You're really just merging into a road that's curved.

South Carolina has been replacing a ton of its high-accident rural 4-way stop intersections with roundabouts in the last decade and I am extremely here for it. It's weird to think that we're at the forefront of traffic design technology in a lot of ways because land is cheap and we're underdeveloped so the DOT more or less gets a clean slate for every project. We've even got a handful of SPUI's now. shame on an IGA fucked around with this message at 12:58 on Apr 25, 2021 |
