Was helping a friend back up a moving truck the other day. I was behind the truck.
I was saying things like ... right hand down, left hand down and he confessed he didn't know what I meant...
Questioning our friendship.

Not good, not good at all π. (If heβs young, itβs his dadβs fault and heβs still teachable)
he's 20 years older than me ...
Well, then heβs got some splaining to do. ππ
Yeah, a lot
I remember the first time I was told "hand at the bottom of the wheel, hand goes left, trailer goes left, hand goes right, trailer goes right"
And this was me before and after that moment:



explanation is probably "simply hasn't done it previously"
TIL thanks
you have to go that way, no no, the other way, the other other way
πI've been driving CDL size trucks and trailers for over 15 years and I have no idea what you meant. I guess I could never hear the instructions over the sound of the trucks.
i have no words
We call this being a "boat launch"
