I think he meant that he's a truck driver.
You have to go to some pretty bad places sometimes.
When I was driving OTR, I stayed heavily armed too.

I almost saw a road rage fight in the middle of Mountain Brook yesterday. Some young punk cussed at a guy in a utility truck driving by. Young dude got out and the utility driver stayed in car, but stopped. Young dude was daring the utility truck driver to get out, but they never did.

I would pay $30 for a loaf of bread if it kept 18 wheelers off the road
Your conveniences in life come from the trucking industry.

Some folks don’t understand logistic’s. I think about stuff like that. Let’s talk chickens.
You need lumber trucks to haul the trees to the mill for lumber to build the coops. To move the materials. To deliver feed. To move the chickens to the plant. To distribute the chickens from the plant. To the wholesalers, to the retailers, to Raising Canes. We would be in a bind without truckers.

You might get your wish on the $30 bread, if SFB stays in office.

Why are all of these places 6 hours apart?
That’s just bad planning.

I drive an Acura suv, have been to Shreveport, and hate truckers….could have been me.

It’s been poppin off in Shreveport the last week, well even more than usual anyway. Not only the usual hood shootings, but multiple road incidents as well.

Probably a good thing for the young buck because there’s a good chance the utility guy would have shown him the meaning of the term “grown man’s arse whipping”.

Truckers are certainly annoying but at least they serve a vital function.
It’s not like they’re cyclists, whose only contribution is exercising in traffic.
It’s them who should be targeted! And it’s safer. They can’t fit any weapons in those overly tight shorts.

You’d have to grow the wheat yourself dumass, how do you think the groceries get to the store?

Also don’t have insurance and they rarely follow any rules of the road.
So basically they are like Altima drivers.
