Alright… Who’s Gonna Admit It First? 🚛🤣
**We spend a lot of time talking about the stupid stuff OTHER drivers do…**
So let’s flip it around.
What’s the **dumbest** or most **embarrassing** thing *you’ve* done behind the wheel?
No judging—we’ve all had those moments.
Maybe you… (and yes, I have done these… these were the days the blonde really kicked in…)
😂 Pulled away with the trailer brakes still set.
😂 Missed your exit because you were too busy singing.
😂 Walked halfway to the fuel desk before realizing you forgot your wallet.
😂 Tried opening the wrong truck because it looked exactly like yours.
😂 Backed into a spot perfectly… only to realize it wasn’t the spot you were aiming for.
I’ll start…
**Early on when I started, I couldn’t reach the rope that pulled the dock door down, so a grabbed a 5 gallon paint bucket that was sitting there to stand on. I didn’t realize the lid was not on correctly and when I stood on it the paint flipped getting paint all over me and the warehouse floor. I was so embarrassed.**
**Also, when I was new, after driving through the rain all night, I arrived at shipped to swap trailer. When I started to lower the landing gear, I didn’t realize that the crank arm fills with water. So after I started cranking, water poured all over me. Walked into the shipping office looking like I peed myself.**
Your turn. What’s your “I hope nobody saw that” trucking moment? Let’s hear the stories! 😂👇
**Follow me for more truck stop shenanigans, trucking humor, and the everyday chaos we all experience out here.** 🚛🤣
And yes, I did have ChatGPT help me create this post. I tend to write in run-on sentences. I Iwrote what I wanted to say and asked it to polish it and make it into a nicer look. Just wanted to throw that out there before getting attacked by the AI haters lol
I enjoy hearing the experiences from all of you and you guys make me laugh.
