I've also got a story of other people saying "it'll be fine" while I should have been thinking for myself.
I used to be a garbage truck driver. I was sent to pick up a bin at some fishing club. It was at the end of a dead end road. I drove my truck to the end hoping there would be enough room to turn the truck around. Of course there wasn't. That's when I should've just decided to back out, but I didn't. I asked the members of that club if the garbage truck usually turns around or backs out. They said "sure you can turn it on the grass, they do that all the time".
So I started turning, one small moment later, I was stuck in the grass. My back wheels just kept slipping and digging in deeper. I putting gravel and wooden boards under the wheels, but nothing really worked. In the end we got like 6 of the fingers to push the truck (10.000+kg) out of the grass.... and they fucking did it! It took a little back and forth, but we managed to get the truck out with teamwork.
It was a pretty stupid decision of mine, but I learned from it. It was 10 years ago, but I still remember it well,because it was just and awesome experience of teamwork and humanity.
I don’t get that term in this context. What’s a “finger” here?
autocorrect of fisher I assume.
Yes, I have a new phone and the autocorrect is the worst. I'm trying my best to tame it, but it just sucks
Fish finger?
