    Well all good runs must come to an end. While athe shippers getting loaded the door got hooked on the Dock and came off the hinges. The guys loading said it probably was their fault but ... So does he get fired or a slap on the wrist. And remember this is his wife so be easy on me. (not good with the terminology of trucking but but I am good at nursing.)

    Depends ... if he's been fine other then this ... he'll probably keep his job and learn his lesson, that no matter what walk the trailer beffoer leavingf the dock and always pull out slowly watching your mirrors.

    If he has a good record other than this > no prob. If these type of things happen with some frequency > problem.
