rsb502 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I wonder how long these "drivers" would have lived if this wasn't a foreign nationals vehicle. 1 Quote "Any Society that would give up a little LIBERTY to gain a little SECURITY will Deserve Neither and LOSE BOTH" -Benjamin Franklin"If your gonna be STUPID, you gotta be TOUGH" "You cant always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFCDrum Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Can't say I haven't done that Randy. It all depended on the communication factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTFormula Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 The forman probably said you shouldn't park there and the guy driving the Ford thought what's the big deal.

rsb502 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 No way to count the number of loads of #67's I've delivered over the last 18 years or so. I have pondered that many times but I couldn't do it, I've dumped in front of or behind someone but I have kept it off the vehicles. If you look at the first load the peak is about 6' wide so the truck was inches from the side of the expedition to do that. I'd have to hurt someone over that if it was my vehicle, and fire some people if it was my "drivers".

slpwlker Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 If your dumb enough to park there and are told not to then I would have no problem doing it and also do it on both sides 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFCDrum Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I would never do it unless I was being treated like a dumb dump truck driver which was more often than not unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 looks like the difference between getting paid by the hour or by the load Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomastractorsvc Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Looks like the dump truck company is going to get a claim, and then they will wonder why the insurance is so high.

hatcity Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Thomas-Nope. You can see where the Ford slid into that spot. Looks like he slid on the wet pavement and debris and luckily had the stone piles to stop him/her from getting into the construction site Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theakerstwo Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 It may have been a inspectors car. That's the way they are around here in city.You ask them to move so you can get in to dump and they go around the block and park in some elses way.White pickups I don't like.What burns me is some times you will deliver 5 loads and they have not moved their head one time and makes me want and ask if their are dead or just sleeping.

rsb502 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Ok more info, the "drivers" said they waited for them to tell them where to dump but the crew kept on working( I bet they never got out of their trucks) so they just piled em up on their truck. These are not your good drivers but "drivers' or as i call them steering wheel holders, after the call to Rogers and the pictures came in they were kicked out of the crusher, the owner of the trucks was told he would have to pay for the damages and they were fired that afternoon. They were some of the undersirables around here that were on their tenth or twelveth driving job and probably couldnt pass a drug test if they had to so im glad to see em gone. Wonder where theyll pop up next since I was told one of them had been fired from every dump truck job in Middle TN.

57 bcr Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Felt like doing that and worse,many times. Just ended up using a little more skill, and dumping where it was needed. Let the jerk who parked there know about it,when I could find 'em! Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

rsb502 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Gort another story on this a little while ago, so the "drivers" said they waited for several minutes for someone to tell them where to put the rock b ut nobody came to them, it was cold and they werent gonna get out of the truck. Then they just decided to put it right there to teach the guys on that jobsite a lesson (for not coming to them?) because they were waiting. Ok so guess what, those guys get paid by the day, not by the load, they could have sat there all day and made the same money, and if you look at the pic, the remains of the pile of rock from before them is right at the top of that little rise by the mini ex, robert said the first truck pulled up and sat there and never got out and when the second truck got there they just baacked up and dumped on the expedition, oh and that pile of rock on top of the rise supposedly came from the second driver the day before. Id a killed em!
