    So they are leaning on me at work to drive a full service straight truck. Soda machines, office buildings, etc. It's because of my years in a package car so this is kinda the same thing but with soda. I dunno, I've filled in doing it once before and it was pretty gravy but the yard dog job is pretty gravy too. It is during the day so that would be a big change for me, I don't know if I can ever sleep at night again lol.

    I liked it when we had all can machines. Once upon a time I could really sling some cans!

    Any other doubles drivers get annoyed when someone wastes a pull-through spot with a single trailer? Seriously, stop being lazy and back it into a spot behind another trailer, leave the pull-throughs for guys dropping their back box.

    If I have smaller equipment I’ll squeeze into the smallest spot I can. Seems to me that’s no more than common courtesy to the ones the ones pulling 53’s that need the bigger spots.
