    I want to see what this shingle thrower looks like after a load of baby food, It would be fun watching them back into somewhere like Mellissa's Produce on Slauson in LA, just another bumper on the ground by the wall. There all necessary jobs, what doe not prepare you for the other. I would not consider unloading rooking material, unless a forklift can do it.

    I've almost left my bumper there a few times, I did watch a 25yr vet leave his there. I don’t think this guy could make it.

    Yea, they wont let you drop and pull away. They did buy the warehouse across Bandini, which is great for getting into, but when it get busy they use old dock

    Glad they bought that place, it’s been about 10 or so years since I’ve been there. I don’t miss going there or this place either.

    Between dropping off at Ralph’s Compton, then having to reload at both these places made that trip pure hell.

    Well here are times when you have to accept a job a little below your standards, could be for a variety of reasons, But its temporary till you get back to 3 months to a year then you can pretty much go where you want as long as you keep everything clear. So don't snear at others trying to dig out If you haven't been there your fortunate, or maybe it just has not happened to you, yet.

    They always had weird specialty products, had to watch to keep them from loading you with rotten veg's.
