I've heard stories of agents being verbally rough on occasions

2019-11-30 00:03:42 UTC  

they have good reason to, but some take it a bit far

2019-11-30 00:04:36 UTC  

last time i was out there the guy was giveing me a hard time because he didn't want to directly ask for the "toll" and they had just changed the rules so you were supposed to prepay.

2019-11-30 00:04:51 UTC  

they call it a usage fee or some such rot, but it's just a toll.

2019-11-30 00:05:00 UTC  

jeez

2019-11-30 00:05:02 UTC  

only for trucks.

2019-11-30 00:05:08 UTC  

wow

2019-11-30 00:05:10 UTC

2019-11-30 00:05:14 UTC  

truck discrimination

2019-11-30 00:05:16 UTC  

Sorry to interrupt, but who was the "Destiny" Sargon and the Guys were dunking on last live stream?

2019-11-30 00:05:29 UTC  

sorry didn't watch

2019-11-30 00:05:44 UTC  

no idea, sorry.

2019-11-30 00:05:50 UTC  

Its fine

2019-11-30 00:05:56 UTC  

I try to watch as often as I can, but my work load can keep me occupied.

2019-11-30 00:06:25 UTC  

also, trucks are very discriminated against, as are the drivers.

2019-11-30 00:06:41 UTC  

the whole small dick thing

2019-11-30 00:06:46 UTC  

Wait, is destiny relevant again?

2019-11-30 00:06:52 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:08:17 UTC  

Just remember, you may make fun of truck drivers all you want. However, they were the first responders in their lifted trucks in hurricane Harvey because the military's were drowned;.

2019-11-30 00:08:48 UTC  

the rednecks save the day

2019-11-30 00:09:42 UTC  

for me there are "trucks" and "pickups"

2019-11-30 00:10:58 UTC  

"trucks" are big and build to haul goods, most of them have trailers. they are build by the likes of Mack and Freightliner.
then there are "pickups" and those are built by the likes of Ford or Toyota.

2019-11-30 00:11:45 UTC  

Chevy?

2019-11-30 00:12:00 UTC  

they make pickups sure.

2019-11-30 00:12:23 UTC  

basically the difference is Volvo and Chevy.

2019-11-30 00:12:33 UTC  

truck is an umbrella term for me

2019-11-30 00:12:46 UTC  

there are semis and pickups

2019-11-30 00:12:53 UTC  

yah, I know.

2019-11-30 00:13:03 UTC  

I usually call the pickups trucks

2019-11-30 00:13:09 UTC  

so when i say "truck" you need to read "semi"

2019-11-30 00:13:15 UTC  

:)

2019-11-30 00:13:20 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:13:29 UTC  

that clears up a bunch

2019-11-30 00:13:32 UTC  

a pickup is still just a 4 wheeler to me.

2019-11-30 00:13:37 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:13:43 UTC  

In the UK truck = semi/box van etc. and a US truck = pickup, I think the same goes for Aus and NZ too

2019-11-30 00:14:01 UTC  

hmm

2019-11-30 00:14:16 UTC  

thanks for the terminology @TheRandomist

2019-11-30 00:14:36 UTC  

It gets confusing, and that's without mentioning pants!

2019-11-30 00:14:46 UTC  

i'm a US truck driver.

2019-11-30 00:15:11 UTC  

I figured that you drove a semi
