    Hey driver. We won't be able to unload you today. We just had a factory wide power outage.

    I bet after they replace that pole, I bet you will see 4 concrete or steel posts with 5 yards of concrete base around that pole

    Surprised it didn't have any yellow bollards surrounding it.... Maybe they figured, "no one is dumb enough to hit this pole." Challenge accepted said the truck driver. @Dave_in_AZ

    Hello, My name is ID10T. I was fired from company for knocking over power pole, property damage, and my company is being sued from down time due to power outage. Does anyone know who will give me a 2nd chance?

    Insert Chinatown's wisdom and recommendations here:

    This is why you check both mirrors while backing. Driver just learned that the hard way.
