Today is Women's Day, which should be "Goddess Day" according to the popular saying now. E-commerce and shopping malls have begun promotions, and some units also offer holidays or distribute benefits to female employees on this day. But there is a group of "goddesses" who cannot relax at all on this day. They are: the wife of the car.
Driving a long-distance truck is a physical job. It has a long journey and takes a long time. It also requires loading and unloading. It has high requirements for physical endurance and strength. Therefore, since ancient times, freight has been considered a job for men, and there are relatively few female truck drivers. However, the "goddesses" who used to stay away from trucks are now increasingly considering cars as their homes, becoming the most inseparable people truck drivers. But, do you really understand her mother around you? Do you know how much she has? Next, let’s uncover the “true face” of the sisters-in-law.
true face: Nanny?
wash, cook, take care of children, and follow Cheka's wife most of the time, the role she plays is more like a "nanny". The husband is responsible for driving, and the wife of Ka is responsible for taking care of her husband and children's lives. They often prepare pots, pans and cookware in the car, and prepare three meals a day in the car. In this way, the husband doesn’t have to eat in the service area or small roadside restaurants, which is both hygienic and cost-effective. Previously, a wife-in-law even brought a small gas tank in the car in order to have a hot meal for her husband. She was found to be stopped by the traffic police in the highway service area (this behavior is very unsafe and everyone must eliminate it)!
true face: deputy?
However, for heavy-duty long-distance tractors, it is very inconvenient for a person to reverse or fold the tarp. At this time, he needs a full-time helper to follow the car. In the past few years, when the freight market was booming, private car owners would hire a full-time driver or helper to go out for sports cars. However, now, the retail market is in a downturn, and more and more cars are underpaid, and it is almost impossible to spend 80,000 to 100,000 yuan to hiring helpers every year. At this time, the ladies rolled up their sleeves again.
On the road, the ladies are the professional navigation of their husbands. They will check the navigation software in time and tell their husbands where to go faster and avoid traffic jams; they will also use the "High Speed ETC" mobile client to charge ETC cards without detours to find a business hall; some card wives are even senior "gang leaders" in the professional social sector of truck drivers such as "High Speed ETC Car Friends Gang". They talk to their friends every day and are proficient in various truck logistics news.
Some kids even passed the driver's license exam and drove alternately with their husbands. A kid friend once joked that kids who can't drive are not real kids.
true face: security guard?
Long-distance freight has been running for several days. In order to save costs and time, drivers often park their cars in the service area and sleep in the car, and beds will be placed on the trucks. However, the public security in many service areas or roadside parking spots is worrying, and stealing oil, battery, and spare tires are constantly banned. There are news about "fuel rats" stealing oil every day, and drivers cannot sleep in the sleeper. At this time, the identity of "security security" Ka's wife was launched. In the second half of the night, you can often see Ka Sisan sitting in the co-pilot taking a nap. Although their "force" is not outstanding, they can also prevent the thieves who have bad ideas from getting close to them.
true face: deliveryman?
There is a saying that couples are the last line of defense for retail investors' transportation and is the product of a recession in the market. It takes time and cost to wait for the driver at the distribution station , and it takes information fees to find the source of goods online, so the card sisters also have to serve as "distribution workers". They are familiar with the addresses of major distribution stations and logistics centers. They will help their husbands find a source of goods when they are busy unloading goods, and try to minimize the waiting time for empty cars. The purpose is to make more money, save costs and make a living.
Talking about ten thousand words. The multiple "true faces" of the ladies are ultimately one, that is, a "good wife". She endured sleeping in the open and stayed by her husband just for family reunion and reunion.As the freight market becomes increasingly standardized, retail freight gradually changes to intensive large fleets, etc., there will be fewer and fewer such couples, and the lives of truck drivers will become increasingly regular, and the clerks can also have their own careers and lives. Why are you still standing there? Say Happy Holidays to her beside you!
