    I just found these and I don't know if I ever posted them here before:
    IMG_20221021_105017.jpg
    IMG_20221021_105031.jpg

    I was making a delivery at a place one day and the receiving clerk at the docks opposite this says: You've got to come see this, it's unbelievable.

    At their paper docks, they require drivers to drop their trailers and pull out. The spot that the tractor sits is pretty sloped and removing the rolls puts a lot of strain on the 5th wheel. To keep from damaging, they feel it's best to drop the trailer. It's so sloped, it takes 12x12 blocks under the landing gear to be able to drop and then get back under.

    Well, this guy only blocked the left landing gear and pulled out from under the trailer. There's 42k in paper rolls on that trailer. The only thing keeping that trailer from tipping over is the dock plate. Luckily they had put it in while the driver was unhooking.

    They had to get a local heavy construction contractor to bring over a 40t forklift to lift the nose of the trailer, so they (the driver) could properly block his landing gear.

    The dock plate somehow wasn't twisted.

    He gets better training than I did. Got keys thrown at me with a "good luck!". No smart phones or GPS back then. Remember Thomas Guides?

    I called my old boss on Friday, told him I'm bored and want to come back to work. He said: well, first you're going to have to pass a piss test because you must be higher than fuck!
