You need to come up with a signal that one has left the truck. Get a stuffed toy and put it in the driver's seat when one of you departs the sleeper. I've heard countless stories of one driver being left at a truck stop, a rest area, or a customer.
i put his folders on the seat, walked up to him in the store and said "im going to the ladies room, dont leave me." he grunted and nodded but didnt look at me. When i got out he was gone. I thought for sure he was playing a game and walked through the lot towards a green International until i realized it wasnt our truck.
I didnt have my phone and had to call dispatch.. who ALWAYS answers on the first ring ... unless im left at a truck stop. Then i called Prime security who asked me a dozen questions thinking it was a sexual harrasment or conflict issue. i was like "it was an accident.. just get him back here."
This was in southern MO with bad cell service and tiny roads without a turn around.
He was distracted on the phone with a personal issie and wasnt even grunting at me. i didnt realize he was on the phone when i told him in the store. He got some ways dpwn the road when he realized HE had his folders on the dash. He called me when drivng and heard my phone was like "awww $#!&, im in trouble." he was on his way back when Prime notified him. lol
i think we will re-enacte it for a video lol
That one should go direct to DVD and Pay per View.
I'll pay to see that one!
Oh well, looks like I moved into this thread today, but PackRat, you just wrote what I didn't earlier...... except back in the day for moi, the preferred phrase was "le chateau", lol
Merci beaucoup!
Well now I know what not to do
You think?
Gary's in the doghouse already!
Well, at least we know Gary (Colonel Mustard) forgot it, in the library (truck) with the candlestick (gladhands.) All I've gleaned, so far! ;)
Even better..... just looked up the French translation for dungeon.....
it's "le cachot"

It's a TIE on the DOOR, dang'ya's! ;)
Kearsey has already arraigned for their next trailer that they will keep until Gary learns his lesson:
"Team drivers always stay together. Any man who leaves his co-driver at a truck stop spends a night in the box."
