It wasn't back you lazy kansas ass. It was a couple posts after he asked the question.

Why do so many Feeder drivers insist on not putting the light cord and hoses back in their respective holders? They seem to prefer to bungee them down to the catwalk which is a tripping hazard that I am obligated to remove every time

Safety? These are are the same guys wearing headsets(talking on the phone) on the yard, twirling the handle, running stop signs, speeding on the yard, no post trip on and on. Procedures? Naw. And saying something to them about it, will get you a punch in the face and shown Article 18...

I get yard control training ad nauseum.

I ordered the one from day cab lounger. Same idea. Its a hammock. I should be fine. I’m just shy of 165. i’ll post a review here when i try it out.

Met up with a Feeder Driver from Phoenix who has one. He loves it. Takes seconds to set up.

Yeah the only thing i thought of last night is what if its raining outside. A portion of the material is outside the window in the elements

I would question whether those things are good for the glass and window regulators. Some are iffy even when they arent abused like that.

I run my hammock on the outside of the door frame.

I'm curious- besides fixing the problem yourself, how did you prevent it from happening over and over? You seem powerless and accept it as fate. Well, besides talking about it here. And you get yard control training ad nauseam, the feeder drivers get hose placement ad nauseam. Yet, mechanics ignore yard procedures and feeder drivers ignore safety procedures. Which all eventually lead to injuries, breakdowns and even fatalities. Yet, try to make meaningful change, you are met with hostility, anger and perhaps violence. Not to mention apathy and indifference. I'd really like to hear your logic and reasoning.

Your door frame was never designed to support that kind of weight, inside or out.

Doesnt touch the window. Goes on door frame

You obviously don't understand how these things work.

Now he's got one more thing to badger his fellow drivers about...

Not really an issue, just a statement of fact. I do comply best I can and enforcing the compliance of others is not my business. I just tire of the repetition on training. I work alone and unsupervised, so i go about my duties carefully.

@quad decade guy could learn something from this.

I bet his manager gives him a little clip-on brown tie to wear when he patrols the yard with his clipboard.

I get all the other stuff but twirling the handle?? I think you’re being a little ridiculous on that one. Who the hell doesn’t do that?

He doesn't! He doesn't do anything unsafe....ever.
