You truck drivin people

Really? I didn't know that. I figured it would be much more difficult to back up a tractor-trailer. The very thought of it makes me cringe. I can back up a small trailer -- another thing my father taught me. One day I was parked behind a store, getting boxes from a cardboard dumpster for moving. This truck pulled up and was trying to back up to the loading dock. He must have been inexperienced because he backed up and pulled forward for -- I swear -- like 10 minutes trying to line the truck up. After seeing that I figured it must be next to impossible to back one of those things up and make it go the way you want it.

Backing into a dock is a whole different kettle of fish. Depending on how it's set up, that can be a real bitch. I've had a few where it took me ten or more tries to hit the door properly, especially if it required blind-side backing or there was limited pull-up space in front of the dock.

Well, shows you how much I know about trucks (not much). I've had (and have) truck driver friends, but never even rode in one much less tried to drive one. Ice Road Truckers is an interesting show though.
