I wanted to see if this was a re-run of a Twilight Zone episode.
Still better than dropping your trailer and not disconnecting (we WILL BE REMINDING YOU OF THIS FROM TIME TO TIME).

I'm sure I wasn't the only one to pull that particular stunt this weekend. But I might be the only one to admit it. (BTW, TT is focused on the people new to the business. I like to let noobies know That ain't the only one to do something stupid! b/c I'm a noobie myself.
Heck Errol, I put my landing gear down, unhooked the pin, and forgot to undo my air lines and pulled away from my trailer to drop it. Yep, you guessed it I pulled those puppies right off of the back of my truck. I didn't post it here because it seems no new drivers here ever make mistakes so I kept it to myself. Things happen, we learn from it, and move on.
