Trucking Lifestyle Survival Tips: Navigating Life on the Road
Trucking isn't just a job; it's a lifestyle that requires adaptability, resilience, and a commitment to safety and well-being. At Immense Trucking Solutions Ltd., we understand the challenges and rewards of life on the road. Here are some essential tips to help you thrive while you're out there:
Tumblr media
Stay Connected and Informed
Communication is when you're on the road. Stay connected with your dispatch team, fellow drivers, and loved ones back home. Use technology wisely to keep updated on weather conditions, traffic alerts, and route changes that could affect your journey. 2. Prioritize Health and Wellness
Maintaining your health is crucial for a successful trucking career. Make time for regular exercise, even if it's just stretching and walking during breaks. Plan nutritious meals and avoid the temptation of fast food—packing your snacks and meals can save money and keep you feeling better on the road. 3. Plan Your Rest
Driving fatigue is a serious concern in the industry. Plan your trips with adequate rest breaks and adhere to hours-of-service regulations. Ensure your sleeping area in the truck is comfortable and conducive to quality sleep. 4. Embrace Routine and Organization
Create a routine that works for you, balancing driving hours with breaks, meals, and rest. Stay organized with paperwork, delivery schedules, and maintenance checks to avoid unnecessary stress on the road.
5. Invest in Professional Development
Continuous learning keeps you sharp and prepared for changes in the industry. Attend workshops, seminars, and online courses to enhance your skills and stay updated on regulations and best practices. 6. Stay Safe and Alert
Safety is non-negotiable in trucking. Always wear your seatbelt, obey speed limits, and use caution in adverse weather conditions. Regularly inspect your vehicle and report any issues promptly to ensure safe operations. 7. Balance Work and Personal Life
Finding a balance between work and personal life is challenging but essential. Schedule regular home time to recharge and reconnect with family and friends. Use technology to stay connected, even when you're miles away. 8. Cultivate a Positive Mindset
Trucking can be demanding, but maintaining a positive attitude goes a long way. Focus on the rewards of your career, celebrate milestones, and find joy in the journey.
At Immense Trucking Solutions Ltd., we support our drivers with resources, training, and a commitment to their well-being. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting your trucking journey, these tips can help you navigate the unique challenges and rewards of life on the road.

im being so so brave but also i am gripping you by the shoulders and leaning in and letting you know i am so tired of being brave
#my job has invented new and even more agonizing ways to make itself stressful to endure#and that isn't even counting the fact that i've now seriously fucked up my wrist transporting 30lb boxes up and down stairs#or the fact that i occasionally get piercing shoulder pains if i'm not super careful about how i use the hand truck#or the fact that whenever i come home on mondays my entire lower body is so sore that i can't move beyond a weak shuffle#it's the fact that my boss has no sense of organization#so my supervisor and i are basically salvaging or starting from scratch every week#it's the fact that some of our clients are asking for things we're not even contracted to provide#like access to our company materials or additional resources outside of our scheduled bookings#and that there's this constant looming threat of 'ohhh don't be bad at your job!! or else we'll lose our contract with these people!!'#but 'bad at your job' in this case means 'not bending over backwards to accommodate the least accommodating circumstances possible'#like 'hey you need to lead this training exercise meant for 20 people except actually you only have 4 people'#'and actually none of them are familiar with the prerequisites for this training or have any experience with the skills'#'and also none of them want to be there and half of them just Don't Do These Things as a rule'#'and if you try to make them do anything they don't want to do (even if it's literally the point of the training) they Will leave'#'and then we will no longer have enough clients to pay you'#like. what am i doing. this company was not designed to work with this format. we're not an arts and crafts group or a club meeting#hi so i wrote this post before starting weekend work prep#it has been 3 hours now#im still not done#i haven't eaten and my wrist hurts so bad#i need to.................. take a break................................

Tried drawing a Sepioteuthis last night and despite the 2 attempts, both ended up looking like truck nuts to me. There are other issues with proportion and all that, but whatever, it's practice. They really do look bulby on the bottom like that sometimes.

Staging concept: Ophelia carries around a book that she uses to press different flowers and plants. At one point we see her actually pressing one of the flowers Hamlet's given her before, and we get the impression that she wouldn't part with this book for the world. During the "Get thee to a nunnery" scene, Hamlet rips the book out of her hands, and she goes diving after it to make sure he didn't damage it. And during her final "mad scene", she starts tearing out the relevant pages (rosemary, pansies, fennel, columbines, etc.) to give to everyone present. Laertes is the only one to get the significance of his sister giving away parts of her prized possession, and it adds an extra layer to his grief.

I just saw a post of a FanArt of Richard Greyson winning gold medals at the Olympics…
so an idea comes to mind…
A crazy guy is stalking the US Olympic team, at first the classic letters from a disturbing stalker, worrying but not enough to do anything more than increase security and start an investigation, after all they are in the middle of the inauguration and there is not much that can be done…
they don't plan to cancel anything… until the truck where the athletes are leaving the event is sabotaged/attacked…
despite the vehicle overturning, most of them had a scare and some bruises… but there are several of them who were left with injuries that prevent them from continuing in the competition.
which should end with the withdrawal of some competitions by the United States… but luckily they meet some of the Wayne boys who came to see the event and they are willing to be substitutes, even if it's just to fill in the spots…
Meanwhile, the Batkids are taking some time off, and by unanimous decision (no one votes against Cas) they decide to go see the opening and some events of the Olympics, what they didn't expect was to find a case involving the Olympic team, where everything seems to point to someone within it, targeting other athletes.
So they decide to investigate from within.

alan alda storytime
the full story from one of the screenshots of my previous post.
story begins with my archaeology professor showing a slide of alan alda in the early 2000s holding some mammoth bones and asks the class if anyone recognizes him. i had watched some MASH with my mother when i was little and had also seen the movie The Object of My Affection, so i raised my hand and said it was alan alda. he lit up and said yes, it was, and told the rest of the class he used to be on this old show, and that when we got more into the bioanthro side of things, remind him to 'tell his alan alda story'.
about 2 months later, we are in bioanthro, and i remind him. he gets excited and says he included slides to talk about it.
[rest under cut]
he tells us how he had just moved to a new city, and he had taken a university job in order to get insurance for his new family [which he didnt get but thats neither here or there]. he gets news that his job is going to be working with Scientific American Frontiers, hosted by the one and only Alan Alda. my prof was thrilled, he loves MASH, and while he specifically wouldnt be involved in the process [being a presenter, working with alan, etc] he was allowed to be around incase they needed help.
i dont know the specific episode, or if it can be found anywhere, but the topic was early man and tools, and how there were mammoth bones that specifically had cuts that could only be made with tools, not by teeth from an animal. they had finished filming for the day and just needed B-roll of some lions at the local zoo chewing some bones [part of the experiment], and alan got a call. he asked if he could head out now, because he needed to get back to his hotel now, and the call had been important. the producers said sure, go ahead, and alan asked if someone could give him a ride.
my professor, having the chance to actually spend time with someone he idolized, and being a stupid late 20s-something, volunteered immediately. stupid why? well, i said he'd just moved there. he didnt know where the hell anything was, and he didnt have GPS available to him, he was just really excited. so they get in the car and start driving.
as i said in my previous post, alan alda had about 20 minutes with this random guy, and found out pretty quickly that he was an archaeologist, and the amazing topic of conversation that he picked was the [then new] theory that we developed agriculture specifically to make booze, and that the rest of the stuff was more or less a biproduct. which is pretty on-brand honestly.
after a while, alan catches on to the fact that this guy clearly has no idea where the hell hes going, and that they've been driving in circles around the city for a while now. he [reportedly very politely] said that actually, this here was his stop, and thanked him for the ride. he then most likely called a taxi that actually knew where it was going, and got to his hotel.
turns out the call was about The Aviator! the call was important because he learned it was confirmed he in it and they needed him to get over there.
its not a glamourous story, but its the only story i got. my prof reported he was a funny guy, and despite slightly kidnapping the poor man for a while, he was the picture of kindness and personability. and clearly he likes telling the story and it left an impression, because he took time out of our already-short lecture to tell a class of 20-somethings that had no idea who Alan Alda was about it.
sorry this is so verbose i dont know how to be short lmao
#oh yeah#this show is hosted by a guy from an old TV show#mash#mash 4077#mashblogging#alan alda#m*a*s*h#hawkeye pierce#this is the same prof that organized an off-campus field trip thing#and when i said i didnt have a way to get to the place he just. offered to give me a ride#this was a class of like 200 people and just 'well if you need to get there and dont mind a messy truck-'#A+ person overall. gave me a piece of obsidian debitage from a flintknapping demonstration#even babyproofed it for me beforehand. still cut myself on it [i broke a tiny piece off on accident and made it sharp again]#also that moment of raising my hand to go 'alan alda meethinks' was horrifying#silent room looking at this picture of this dude handling mammoth bones and im like 'i can identify this old man. maybe.'#wasnt even sure. ive rewatched MASH now but at the time it was foggy#wasnt even the first time hes shown up in my schooling! im going into psych and the bastard has appeared twice#that episode where they cut the guys corpus callosum. imagine being a 17 yo in a room of 15 yos#[i took the class late] and silently freaking out cause you know who that is but no one else does and then the teacher says#and then a year later being in college in your first psych class and the SAME VIDEO gets played. wild shit#anyway that makes 3 years in a row that at least 1 class has had alan alda in it. if it gets to May next year and he hasnt shown up#im gonna make him show up somehow. dissertation on how hawkeye pierce is a good example of PTSD in media#be the change you want to see in the world

hey uhmhmgmdmn
asking for a friend, a chum, a pal
but can we hear more about fernando? quite possibly??….
Oh yeah!
He's shares a lot in common with Hannah; He's super laid back, easy-going, tech savvy and has a good heart. While Hannah specializes in engineering and machinery, his niche is a little more into coding, programming, and energy magicks, which go hand in hand with a lot of the robots and other devices Hannah builds.
He's often part of a stoner-type group-- which includes Cassidy!-- with which he loves road tripping, camping, hiking, and generally exploring the unseen. He and Han like road tripping together, but he's definitely the more outdoorsy of the two.
Despite having a fine home back in his home town, and a new place shared with Hannah, a lot of his time is spent living in his van. The one that Hannah has for a lot of the story. He considers that van his true home.
He is a born werecat on his mother's side, and unlike many he has a very good handle on the affliction. Honestly, he's probably even more chill as a cat than not. Catch him and his kitty crew basking in the sun high as balls on. catnip.
Really he's just a chill and friendly dude, he's a good source of wisdom and knows a lot of general survival skills... it's a shame the main crew doesn't meet him until much later, way after they've been struggling to make do in their new world u_u. He'd have been a big help!

ngl going to pride events just made me feel sad and unwelcome in the community this year. it’s been getting slowly worse with more cops + corporations since I first went as a teen but idk, this year rlly took the cake probably because of how wrong it felt to be celebrating despite the genocide. being surrounded by rainbow wash corporations and people having the time of their lives is rlly just demoralizing when all of the gay + trans ppl around you are suffering through poverty. I was excited to try and find some solace in my community but I just left feeling like more of an outsider than I ever have

I love watching people genuinely enjoy simulator games of mundane jobs. Like running a supermarket, or driving a long hauler truck. It just shows that people do genuinely enjoy doing these things when they 1) Choose to and have the freedom to stop whenever they need 2)Don't have the looming pressure of their entire livelihood hinging on the extreme success of this one task being completed
