I need a new job

Ok I am a garbage man I pick up residential trash for 3 to 5 hours a day 5 days a week. My boss is a 60 year old mean lady who you would think was a man first and her face is permanently frozen with a look of disgust. She is mean to other drivers shaking her fist and yelling obscenities ready for a brawl you would sure imagine. So she is so rude she was not paying attention to the road and was driving on the rocks for a second until she looked up and corrected but then focusing back on me "Why didn't you say something or grab the wheel" then went on to tell me how she would have done that correctly from my position. I stood my ground I told her " You only got one job over there to keep this thing on the road, if I was in that seat we wouldn't be having that problem I would be paying attention. " She comes back with " Yes sir" mockingly, So I told her look you are responsible for both of our lives so pay attention. She ended her bickering for then. I need a new job they run this garbage truck with trailer tires and she said they only have liability insurance on the truck we use for work so if I was injured in a less than safe truck no seat belts no airbags and I'm supposed to drive from the passenger seat that's it I need a new job.I really need a new job.

It sounds like she has had a rough life and is taking it out on anyone in her path. But, that doesn't mean it is right in any way. Also sounds like she is reckless. Finally, yeah, it does sound like you need a new job. If you don't want to change the type of job, perhaps there is another waste company around that takes better care of it's employees. I know around where I live they are treated very well and get paid very well. I have had family members that worked that job before. I hope the best for you, and you completely said the right things to her. You were actually quite respectful, which was good of you.
