I'd love to see him try and back a 53' reefer into a disribution center built in the 60's....
Occasionally, I needed a time-out from pounding the road and take a bid for the yardman.
Rhinestone Cowboys would spend a 1/2 hr. trying to back in. Finally they'd come over to me in the Yard Horse and ask me to back it in for them.
I'd say, Five bucks. Ten if they couldn't speak English...[video]https://youtu.be/vzxIsiMyasA[/video]

If you can't back up you can't back up. Why would you pull a van. I have seen guys with smaller trucks that just don't have the knack, my old truck was 270" and I pulled a moving van with it then containers from 20'-53' never had a issue, not that I was everywhere but Pgh. Pa. is not always truck friendly.

That's my point.
There are guys out there in 75' rigs that can't back up.
Right out of "school" into a Werner seat, hook up, say bye. Call when empty.

I agree but you have to start somewhere and more training is not the answer. Some just never get it no matter how long they have been driving.

Their mileage rate is near the poverty level. You have to pound 3k miles a week to make money. HowTF can you get those miles if you're staying legal, twiddling with yourself waiting to unload, going through a pack of cigarettes waiting for tire service on the shoulder of the Turnpike.
They pay per mile less now than what Teamsters in the Freight Division were making 30 years ago. Bennies suck. They lie to you. You're out 14 days, then allow you your two days home when you're 750 miles from home. I can go for another hour if you like.
