Truck Driving Jobs

So I was sitting at a stop sign in Hesperia behind a flatbed making a left onto a narrow street.
As I watched this guy make his turn, everyoone but the punk, Orange County transplant in the lifted F-150 back up and make room.
This guy flips the driver off, stays near the stop sign for a few minutes and when the truck is about to scrape him, drives up on the curb and makes his right turn that way.

As this fool rolls by, he sticks his arm back in the window after holding the bird up longer than required and as he drives by, I flash the "retardation" salute back at him.

I don't know, Hesperia is still kind of a truck friendly city for being in Dumpsterfornia, but all these kids who have grown up since their parents got chased out of LA and Orange County are some of the worst up here when it comes to driving around, well anything for that matter.

Happened to me in Chicago.I shut it down and got out of the truck with the craziest, wild-eyed Southern Boy look I could muster up and headed straight for the drivers door. I'm not sure if was my crazy eyes or the load bar, but, he must've backed up half a block before he finally stopped....lol!

Now that I'm older, crazy eyes aside, I think it's the T-shirt that does it for me.

That's nasty, Roadhog. :hellno:

I see trucks in town that try to turn, and some jip is just sitting there, watching. Makes me want to get out of my pickup and ask the dumb nut to back up.

Or do what I do ask him if he wants a flat hood unless he backs up.

Good way to end up with a giant hole in your face where the bullet went through. Matter of fact I would even say that going towards a car with a winch bar or whatever in your hand gets you what you deserve when the car driver decides to defend himself.

I have to agree. You might want to stay in your truck these days Dave. What good can possibly come from getting out in a threatening manner?

I just simply make the turn, as far as i possibly can, (getting as close as I dare to their hood) then smile & wait. They'll eventually back up, as not many people have patience anymore. They're always in a rush.

Nothing good would come out of it. Dave could end up dead, injured, or arrested. The other person would claim self defence and get away with it.
