Given his affinity for piss, and characters like “Die Hardman” or “Hot Coldman”, I’m amazed Piss Jugman hasn’t shown up in any MGS or other Kojima game.
My old rich Karen of a boss was heading up from Missouri to Omaha for work years ago in her jaguar, which was aptly hit by a piss bottle and it broke her windshield lmao.
I used to not believe AI generated content would lead to misinformation. I mean it’s very easy to tell when an image is AI generated. And yet this thread proved me wrong.
Truck drivers are often owner operators on exploitative leasing terms or training terms with their employer that dictate they must work X amount of time or they owe Y training cost, usually in the 10s of thousands of dollars. In addition to this, drivers are typically paid by the mile, which means they’re not paid at all for any time they take breaks, or even while trucks are loading or unloading. Not to mention the razor tight schedule they’re expected to make. Piss bottles, like every other uniquely horrible American cultural artifact, are a result of overworked and underpaid workers trying to make the best of their situation. They’re literally saving time and making money by pudding in a jug.
Sometimes it’s just an inconvenience. This gas station is located in a rural town in the foothills of Tennessee which is at the convergence of two major highways. This appears to be the only truck stop within 20-30 min in any direction. The drivers could pull into a normal gas station or just pull off the road, but the roads and parking lots in this area aren’t really designed for vehicles of this size.
Some aspect of it is certainly over demanding bosses and workaholic drivers, but another part of it is just not wanting to bother with finding a place to pull over without going out of the way. Also, it never seems to be as simple as just pulling over to use the restroom. You have to pull off the highway, go down the ramp, if you’re lucky the gas station is right there at the exit, but if not you might have a short couple min driving. By the time you’ve gotten off the road, found a place to go, got your truck parked in a normal parking lot, and went in to actually use the restroom a lot of time passes. Probably 15-30 min per stop.
I like how this still doesn’t bring up the ridiculous scheduling truckers are put through to the point they have to piss and shit while driving because they don’t have time to stop
Well, the companies work them like dogs and then the drivers kept hearing from the elongated muskrat that he was going to make them obsolete “next year™” so of course they found other work.
Wonder how those self driving death machines, I mean trucks, are coming along?
Their stupid pickup (announced before covid) just started testing and its breaking constantly. I wouldn’t hold my breath for mass adoption of self driving trucks.
Truckers absolutely do not have to piss and shit while driving, and they especially do not have to throw their piss jugs out the window. They’re just disgusting people, truly the smegma of society.
Businesses don’t have to let you park in their lots. Cities can put up no truck parking signs. States can restrict parking on entrance ramps.
Stop giving them excuses to do so! You’re just making things worse for drivers out of sheer laziness. Truck stops let you throw away your trash in dumpsters.
I had a gallon bottle that I used. I only filled it completely maybe twice in seven years. I’d pull over on the shoulder in the country and pour it out the passenger window. Give it a good rinse every few days and a thorough washing every month or so and it wouldn’t even stink.
Even for the people that use small bottles and throw them out, they can save them long enough to throw them away at a truck stop. There’s no excuse for throwing your full piss bottles and other trash on the side of the road.
