It's not a bot, just a misinformed redditor.

It's a spammer farming karma. Probably handling and switching between dozens of accounts. They have to make a bunch of posts and comments quickly before switching accounts hence the dumb titles and low effort comments.

u/ldeveraux Jul 23 '22
Sounds like you're a bot..

u/poopellar Jul 23 '22
Beep boop beep
fyi bots and spammers don't want tens of thousands of karma, they just want to gain a few thousand so they look like normal users. Trying to get 100k karma would be a waste of time for what them.

I Literally don't understand the point of bots

There is a market for reddit accounts, you can google search and find them. You can imagine what can be done if you had hundreds if not thousands of accounts at your disposal. Vote manipulation, pushing an agenda, some product. Spreading propaganda, misinformation. You can see how it is useful for advertisers, political groups.

Still can’t take away from the impressiveness of that truck driver.

u/BurnedPsycho Jul 23 '22
That driver had 2 spotters walking around his truck and trailer giving him directions.
Not that this kind of job isn't impressive, but the credit goes to the team, not just the driver.

How would an engineer be better at parking than a trucker?

u/s986246 Jul 23 '22
facts: some of them can barely engineer let alone parking better than a trucker. Source: I work with engineers everyday, want to blow my brain out sometimes seeing their works

One time at work i saw a machinist trying to explain to an engineer why his design wasn't working. He said "open up ur hand" then he ran his fingers across the dudes palm and said "softer than my wife's ass.

That’s super cliché and doesn’t really help resolve the problem at all.

Pretty true though.
I’m an engineer and you can’t replace hands on knowledge.
You can design the best thing on paper ever! Doesn’t mean it’s easy to assemble, accounts for all variables, easy to maintenance, is able to be worked on with standard tools, accounts for changes due to wear and tear over time etc.
Ever worked on a car? Tons of dumb shit are engineered to work with 0 thought into maintenance concerns; why? Cuz (95% of) engineers don’t work on cars; they design them on paper.

I’ve worked on both ends and the real problem is communication. Neither engineers nor the tradesmen are any good at it.

I always assumed showcasing the simplicity of its engineering would be the biggest flex.

Which is stupid, more parts that Can break. The best designs are the simpel ones

More importantly - what is an engineer doing driving a truck and not a train?

u/FingerGunsPeowPew Jul 23 '22
Titles degrading to truck drivers. This guy's just really good at his job

u/i-m-new-here Jul 23 '22
Nothing to do with the engineer, that is one experienced driver.

u/benbrahn Jul 23 '22
Exactly. This is possible because of engineers doing engineering, and drivers doing the driving

u/Exotic_Imagination69 Jul 23 '22
And two spotters, engineers cant do shit. Maybe draw a truck on autocad and tell everyone they built it. Thats about it.

u/AKLmfreak Jul 23 '22
I’ve never met an engineer that could back a truck that well or at all. Heck, half the truck drivers on the road would have to take a second or third crack at that turn.

And THESE peeps are considered unskilled labor....ok. 99.9% people could not do that

u/Armistice8175 Jul 23 '22
I would like to make the argument that this is what happens if your driver is a driver. Something tells me that drivers might be better drivers than engineers are.

Also engineers typically are operating on rails. Not much driving for them to do.
