Yesterday I had two pickups. One was a transmission core, the next was 10 skids of chicken feed.
As I dug into today’s load I noticed chicken feed on the floor, indicative of one of those skids being poked through the bottom, and oil speckles down the left side of the trailer. Turns out, one of the dock morons somehow got so much transmission fluid on the floor that it leaked down THROUGH the floor and got all over the frame of the tractor.
As if that wasn’t enough, when I was raising hell to the night supervisor about what happened, one of the dispatchers piped up and said they never even stripped another driver’s trailer. The morning idiots just loaded today’s deliveries behind yesterday’s pickups.
Dockworker stupidity abounds today.

Last week we had a good one. One of the dock guys at the warehouse takes a catnap on his fork truck. No problem as it was break time, except he never set the brake. Fell asleep enough foot slipped off the brake and the fork truck rolled through an open dock door without a trailer...

It was bad enough that one skid for my last stop today was left right on the back, but it was on the dock last night.
