    I love it when I come to work and a driver decides the best place to park is to line up with the yard gate and wait for us to open. Meanwhile he's blocking off our parking lot. Really what was wrong with parking on the side of the dead end dirt road that is used to access the business?

    @NorthernMechanic it's because if they park on the road then another truck will come up and park at the gate causing him to now be 2nd in line. Kinda sucks but might wanna see if management will splurge for a sign stating truck wait on road or somesuch....
     
    AModelCat Thanks this.

    We don't get deliveries often though. Maybe once a week we'll have something transfered in from another shop. So its pretty rare this happens (like 3 times in the last 6 months. Still bothers me though).

    If the manager came out and told me to move I'd just move.

    Now if it was the pimply faced assistant manager I would have called the federal marshals and told them I was being kidnapped.
